Not stealing @Rollin Hand "Waddaya Got" franchise (you can see it here viewtopic.php?f=53&t=2932&start=25), but I had this idea some days ago, only that it´s instead about modelers/multieffects people got but don´t use anymore, for whatever reason, but you still have them collecting dust - or not, maybe hidden in their boxes, all clean, under the bed, but still, UNUSED -, so this Waddaya Got is about that.

I´ll start: Fender Mustang I. The reason: I´ve been "cold" inside, so no inspiration or will to play. I always play in my head, I should say, but not "for real" for some long months now.

so, waddaya got but it´s like you don´t?

Next.

Not sure if it's a moder...but I bought a POS Zoom G1On as a back up. Never got to use it except when I tried out if it works when I bought it new.

Yes, it is. I understand that it can produce good/decent sounds, but I´m not sure on the construction and usability.

I've got a Digitech RP-1, and a Mooer GE-100 that have not seen power for a long time.

Mind you, the Spark 40 hasn't seen power for months either!

I've got a Digitech RP200 that I bought sometime in the 90's. It sounds too hideous for me to use for guitar, but the kids love to play around with it using a cheap microphone!

Wow, that digitech is old! Mooer seems to have got better with their newer units. The one I like from them is the GE-250. I need switches to switch patches (pun intended) on the run.

Hope you can turn on that Spark soon!

Another old Digitech... If your kids are having fun with it, it´s great. Compared to newer pedals, yeah, it doesn´t sound that good. Your mini Mustang Micro can dance around it.

I would like Joe Bonamassa and John Mayer to make a bet on a sporting event... I don't care which event.... the loser has to play a gig with my Agile AL-3200, Digitech RP200 and Peavey Bandit amp.

This would be devastating on my self-confidence, of course, because they'd likely still sound 100x better than I would on their gear, but I'd like to see it anyway.

The Digitech is pretty rough, but hey, we were messing about with wax cylinders not that long ago!

I also learned the other day that Pablo Picasso, and Snoop Dog, were both alive for a period of time, mind blown (Mainly due to a lack of education in the arts)

I feel like I may have said this already. Bought a Helix LT with a headrush FRFR speaker. Didn't really like the speaker and found myself using other gear. So I sold it. Then a few weeks later I saw a broken one that I know how to get fixed for cheap. So I bought it again. I'm liking it more this time but it's mostly just because I spent some effort trying to understand it this time.

I think you did mention it before. But do you have other modelers that you don´t use?

Yes and no. Anything I don't use that I feel is replaceable I tend to sell. I had a Yamaha THR 100H. It wasn't as good as the Helix so I sold it.
