Overrated: Boutique pedals ex.Analog man,ethos,T-rex,Xotic,H.B.E etc.They say if you have boutique pedals your tone is good and you have true bypass at the same time ''pogi'' sa pedal board, mas mahal mas maganda.That's why its overrated because some people tend to believe boutique pedals are better than anything else than stompboxes that doesnt have any 3pdt switch on it.Most of the time some people hear you after playing in a gig and someone comes close to you and looked at your pedal board and saw your old boss or boston pedal He would say ''ay corny boss ds-1, daming tone suck yan! I have a better one a Radial hot british its true bypass and its heavier sounding and it is 5 digits worth''..Now that sucks aint it.
Underated: For me lahat ng murang pedals danelectro,dod,boss,digitech,boston kahit century or denio.I agree that boss pedals are underrated sa dami ng lumalabas na pedals ngayon,IMO Boss has a part of history in which they were one of the first to develop stompbox pedals in the 70's remember the roland sustainer which runs on 16 batteries?Without them walang kokopyahin na Circuit board diagram ang ibang effects companies.
i'm not rich and i'm not a tone purist.What's important is what the ears hear and how you play and your ears like it and your bandmates liked it(If they dont liked it well thats another story).No matter what kind of pedal you have mura man o medyo mahal.Practicality lang siguro.Nasa pilipinas tau wala sa U.S.
P.S: tama yung mga ibang forumers nasa timpla lang yan
