Digitech GSP7, bought around 1993 from the printed Musician's Friend catalog, back when you actually had to call in.

Using a landline.

My first processor was the one before that one, the GSP-5. It seemed pretty amazing at the time.

For proper digital modelers, I've about run the whole gauntlet.... Notable exceptions being I have never owned a Kemper and have only owned two Roland/Boss units: the VF-1 and GP-100.

I even had the Behringturd POD knock off, that was a lot of value for the $$$ at that time, the V-Amp Pro.

Had a Zoom GFX-707 too; along with gobs of Line 6 stuff, of course.

Fractal has been my main digital platform since the Ultra dropped.

Yamaha DG and the H&K Zentera were way better than the Line6 stuff of that era. I feel like the blue Vox Valvetronix was the first true advancement in digital modeling.

The Zentera was insanely costly was it not like 3000 like 20 years ago

I don't know if it was that much, but it was really expensive!

Wow, so interesting seeing some of these processors being currently sold for anywhere between $5 and $150.

How cheap is your stroll down modeler memory lane?

I saw a Yamaha DG-Stomp in pretty beat up condition sold for about 20 euros in Japan last year. I gotta admit, I was tempted!

I remember I bought one of these amazing things way back in the day. I am pretty sure that was the first multi-effects I owned. I had single pedals before that.

Had one of these as well as my first multi effects (with a crappy amp).
