Your #1 worst buy ever

[Spitfire]

Mine would have to be a pocket pod... hated everything about it.  The build quality, interface design, sound quality.

[MDV]

Hands down a Kramer Imperial. Sounded OK and looked cool, but the bridge was positioned incorrectly and it couldnt be intonated!

the tonelab then... at least the strat made sound

[MDV]

Ah, broken

I rather like the tonelab, its not bad, for a modeller.

A brand new Renault Clio 172 Cup that had paint defects   :shock:  I had to hire a solicitor to get my money back....

Oh, you mean guitar gear?  :lol:

I would say the Gibson Les Paul Standard I bought in the late nineties ( sorry Grandad, I know I bought it with the money you left me  :oops: ).  It got traded in for *that* Tele earlier this year  :D

[FernandoDuarte]

BC Rich Warlock (I think bronze series) the block of the floyd rose was made of a shiteetatic soft and breakable thing, everytime I was changing strings, it brake a little (in the holding-pin of the springs)...

This was SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO annoying that I don't a floyd rose for the rest of my life (well, sometimes I think in, but I've fear)

Feline Tabby.

(Ok, kidding, please don't kill me Johnathan.)


Peavey Rage 258.

Not that bad really, but not a good solid state amp. Been lucky with the rest of my gear.

(The Feline was actually my best value for money buy)

Fender Classic Player '50s Stratocaster - just knew I hated it the moment I took it out of the box, and sent it back immediately.

[Ian Price]

Without doubt it was the Line 6 JM4 Looper. Edit - pretty much the same as Philly in that the minute I got it out of the box (and played it for a few secs) I just knew it was going straight back!

Strangely enough I do like the pocket pod that was commented on earlier!

[Antag]

Boss DR880 Drum machine.

I had a little Boss 4-track (BR482 IIRC), the built-in drums sounded really good but with limited flexibility (you could only program the patterns they'd built in, no way to make new beats/fills etc).  So I assumed that their dedicated Drum Machine would make sounds as good as the built in module on the recorder with the added ability to make patterns.

I assumed wrong.  What a total pile of sh1t.  A £300 total pile of sh1t (as if insult really needed adding to injury :roll:).  The BR482's drums sounded 1000 times better than what came out of the DR880.  Sadly the place I bought it from went bust so I couldn't return it.

& to cap it all, I couldn't get the MIDI synchronization to work so even if I can coax a tolerable sound out of it, it won't be precisely in time with the click track.

My 2yo son sometimes plays with it, I might move it into his room because I certainly don't want to see it anymore...

A Jackson JS30RR. It just feels like cr@p. Probably cause of the die-cast stock shite on it and it's neck heaviness.

[sgmypod]

A Dod multi effects..traded for a Boss ME5.....was a while ago..or the al600

[Philly Q]

..or the al600

Was it that bad?  I quite like the look.
