Actually- sorry this doesn't count. The original post said "Lets get the Boss Pedal appreciation going and list every pedal you have..." ;) :)
I would actually be super curious to know what variations of pedals he has (like all the DS-1s, how many MIJ, MIT, labels, etc.)

This is all I Need for VINTAGE BOSS Pedal tones! - BOSS ME-5

BUT - Upgraded with the Boutique Upgrade Kit

Few people realise that the ME-5 incorporates the classic BOSS pedal internals that are now vintage collectables including the: CS-2, DS-1, OD-2, RV-3, EQ-1, CE-2, DD-2, BF-2 all together with a switchable Noise Suppressor NS-2 that calms the proceedings - so that's actually 9 classic 80s units - not 5 !

That's very interesting, but ME-5's are so rare in my corner of the map... I mean, I haven't seen any for sale on classified ads in the last 5 years so even less in the flesh!

How close are the sounds you can dial from the real stompbox? Are they really the exact same circuits in that small of a package?

So would I. As for listing pedals, after seeing his post maybe pictures would have been the better choice.
So here is my collection. Some pedals I listed aren't at my place so my picture is a bit incomplete.

Ah, you kept the OD-2? I thought you didn't like it instantly. The "R" model is a lot louder (and my young brothers who recently borrowed some of my pedals love it to pieces).

Yeah that's true, I didn't like it. It was on a different amp though. I bought a Mesa Mark V shortly after and completely stopped buying pedals for a few years. The amp is pure metal sounding and I've been exploring pedals again for a rock sound to mix with my 2nd channel. I don't believe I've tried the OD-2 out for that yet so that will be fun! Thinking back, I wish I didn't sell off some of my other od/dirts like the XT-2, PW-2, etc... Would love to see how they react with all the options the mark v has. I had pristine boxed versions of them too. :roll:
