You asked for it, but Houston, we have a problem…

Welcome to the show. This challenge has been suggested many times by many people, the idea of pitting one brand against another using a MonoBrand approach to each of our pedalboards.

As it turned out the challenge was very different because of the pedals we had to hand - in short we have LOADS of Boss pedals and almost no MXR pedals. Argh! What to do? Max five pedals, one guitar, one amp… GO!

Enjoy the show!

MXR’s doing some great stuff lately.

Looks like they had a load of fun with this challenge. Currently almost all my wet effects are MXR (analog delay, micro flanger, phase 95, and tremolo). I also have the 10 band EQ. My looper is a Boss RC5, but it's not hooked up and I haven't really spent enough time to get good with it. Also not in use I have the Boss SD-1, BD-1, and DS-1 which together is a fantastic set of gain stages, to be honest.
