For me personally, its gotta be a t.c. electronics 2290 Digital
Delay. One of the best sounding delays I've heard recently (not cheesy),
and their reputation precedes them... they've been around forever, and
their track record is stellar. Even their artist roster is stellar, from
the likes of Steve Lukather to John Petrucci to Vivian Campbell.
Other than that, I've been looking into DMC's GCX Guitar switching
system to replace my Mesa/Boogie Midi Matrix & Abacus combo.
Just my $0.02...
i want one of the ibanez EM-5 pedals.
that's about it, i'm not a pedal freak like i used to be. i find i just use
a good overdrive, and a nice delay on stage, the others collect dust.
but certain overdrive pedals sound better with certain amp and gtr combos,
so i own a few different od pedals.

I am considering types of paint and graphics for my compROSSor pedal. I have
been using hammerite paint and just stamping a sun face on them for a hand made
look (they are!). Do people prefer something funky like this or powder-coated
silkscreened professional looking pedals from a small effects builder???

Depends on how good it looks. I like the way your compressor looks and
it's a hand made job, as opposed to the aforementioned Fatboost, which
although also handmade, is considered more pro-looking, but in fact makes
me queasy. Z-Vex stuff looks cool, too.

pretty modest, huh?
For guitars I'm on the lookout for a Fender '52 reissue Tele and a '62 reissue strat
A good Gibson SG
Your new comp sounds like a great addition the the world of pedals. FWIW,
personally, I like a more finished looking pedal.

as far as what i'm interested in, let's just say that if someone walked up
and handed me an NGM pedalboard and case, i'd be alright with that.

Same here.
An old Musicman six string Stringray electric. Found one, couldn't afford
it, someone else bought it, still in love with it.
new pots for my no2 strat.
a 250k pot with push/pull for my no1 strat. (to get neck/bridge and
neck/middle/bridge selections)
same for my tele (series/parallel switching with both pickups on - keep it
going untill I can get the bridge pickup changed.)
get my no2 strat double fretted (then spend 5 years learning how to play it)
Digitech Whammy Re-issue (original if pigs fly).
I'd kinda like one of those new danelectro French Toast things just for fun.
I got an effects chain with a boss oc2 and MXR blue box. Octave overload is
fun for jamming.
A vox AC30 would be good.
I can but dream
Daniel.

Fuzz Factory - Replacing the reissue Big Muff already in my setup.
Pefftronics Rand-o-matic - Random flange/chorus. If I can find one.
And, I need to get around to getting the DL4 expression pedal. Damn $60
thing... grumble.

Thanks for the replies!
My last batch of dyna/ross clones came out really cool, but like flametop Les
Pauls some were 10s and most 7s. I kept the 11 top for myself!!! I have been
using rustoleum brand hammered metal finish and it looks great if you put it on
thick but is hard to paint the sides of the pedals thick enough or they run.
I got a can of Krylon Hamm-R finish for my 1st batch of compROSSors and it is
much smoother and less textured/flamed than the rustoleum brand, but the sides
came out better... They look very professionally finished as the paint is very
slick. But I couldn't sleep the night after painting them (in my shop - it's
cold outside in CT!) due to breathing the fumes... powder coating beckons!!
