ooh, ooh, I know...it's NOT a DoD Carcosa either! Am I doing this right? :D
Technically yes, although deduction one pedal at a time is gonna take far too long to guess it, wouldn't you agree? :lol:

It's not a Crybaby either. :mrgreen:

Okay, a hint: it is a dirt pedal.

That was going to be my next guess (because the 18 volt power supply)

Maybe it's a pedal like This Inferno Metal Distortion.
3 knobs
2 switches
Doesn't take 9volt batteries (just adapter)
Mini pedal case

It's not 18 volts, it's AC, but you're thinking along the correct line.

I've spent about half an hour trying to find something that fits the description. I'm stumped.

With so many new pedal companies these guessing games are becoming difficult.

Dirk's pedal guess: Mooer MMD1 Blade Micro Metal Distortion Guitar Effects Pedal?

quite a sinister, almost evil character: Blade is a movie/comic book character, possibly evil.
3 knobs: Yes
2 switches: yes
Doesn't take 9volt batteries (just adapter): Yes
a dirt pedal with non standard shape: Mini pedal case


FuzzBuzzFuzz pedal guess: DOD Grunge pedal (random guess)

4 knobs.
More than 2 colors.
At least 20 years old


Pepe pedal guess: Boss power Stack (random guess)

- it is a pedal that I haven't had before
- standard power supply
- four knobs

Oh, it seems like it's something completely under Laurie's radar what I sent to Dirk. With all those clues I originally thought you might guess it in no time at all.

Admin: You are right about BOSS. But it's not the Power Stack.

Homing in Admin, the color is not far off at all. But it is not a gain pedal.... :)

Any parcels addressed to me had not arrived by 24 Dec, and i wont be back at that address until 4 Jan. So don't wait for me to do your unboxings. Happy New Year to you all, in the meantime - Jeremy
Since the parcel was rerouted from Austria back to Germany and then into the correct direction to you an the 4th December it can take another few weeks to arrive. DHL Germany says that it can take up to 40 work days, because it will be shipped via a combination of airmail and surface mail. :|
