Guitar Pedals

What are your favourite pedals off that board? If you couldn’t pick more than 5, let’s say.

Thats a tough one... I'd go with them ones as my five faves:

The Empress Heavy is probably the best Distorion pedal I ever had my hands on in the past 40 years. Sounds very organic and super straight forward.
J. Rockett Rockaway Archer is a nice hybrid Overdrive/EQ pedal, was developed with Steve Stevens.
Maxon AF-9 is a cool Envelope Filter, and I use almost always turned on, with very decent settings = all down to zero. That adds a little bit of a human voice to the tone. Marty Friedman does that a lot.
Fortin 33 is a "brutalizer" that cleans up the low end fundament from Distortion pedals and brings more weight, clarity and aggression to the tone.
The Keeley Compressor plus is a wonderful always-on Compressor for me, the sound just profits in general from that. Have altogether three Compressors on my board, but this one is my fave.
 
Got an MXR Phase 90 and an Electro Harmonix J. Mascis Ram's Head Big Muff. Looking forward to trying them out on my "small board", which will now consist of 7 pedals.

Been using a TC Electronic Helix Phaser on my main board, which is probably my most unexpected hit.
