Two pieces to possibly be acquired in the foreseeable future should I decide to actually go through with purchasing these two items that have caught my attention, fancy and apparent gear lust..
LAA CUstom SmartSwitcher system
and a
Meris Enzo. Damn those are cool.
Man you know I’ve wanted an Enzo (though I have a lot of vintage guitar synth boxes already), but the secret button presses required on every Meris product turn me off.

Yeah, I'm thinking I'd go with labeling those suckers..
And point taken. It's not like it's just a dirt box. This is a freaking guitar to synth adaptor. But just you wait, I'm sure this (or similar) will be available in a bigger knob-a-function enclosure (as much as feasible).. with more savable presets. ( and better than ever tracking etc...)
I've got a first edition big ol' silver EHX Hog which has been a lot of fun, but the Enzo just looks like a couple quantum shifts aka fifteen years forward.

Ok, you could?
I'll try again.

OK, deleted some previous attachments through the "user control panel".

got a good deal on a used Mojave MA-301-fet. Now I have the whole collection...
MA-101fet (no longer made), MA-201fet, and the 301. I like these mics on a lot of things and the multi-pattern (and pad) of the MA-301 will be useful.

Xotic SL: very nice MIAB - I like it better than the DLS Mk II.

Close - Marshall inna Box.
This one has settings for a Super Lead and a Super Bass.
I think it's also in 800 territory, me.

I have a Carl Martin Plexitone single -
https://www.carlmartin.com/plexitone-single -- defintely has the Marshall sound (to my ears). Highly recommended.
and maybe I listened to too much Little Feat, but shouldn't it be FMIABT? (or technically FMITBT)

FMIABT is only partially accurate as I basically only take showers.
Carl Martin is great stuff - recently got the envelope filter and it's pretty unique in sound, approach, and appearance. But CM is also somewhat rare and tends to be over US$100/ a pedal, what is my cap.
The Marshall delay I have is a fave, one of two on my main live board (and I do have other choices).
I was recently reading about something else based on the Guv'nor, can't quite recall which ...
The Tech 21 version is great for DI - I don't use those on the board. The Joyo is close ... (the cab sim is not defeatable, which I think it is on the T21).
But I was looking for one on the board I'm building for Fender amps (my Ampeg, T21 and Vox amps having "Marshall" channels).
This S/L could be it.

Xotic Soul Driver pedal: I think this one is a pretty recent design. Very cool all chrome box, two DIP's innit that allow you to boost 2, 3 or 6 db at 125Hz, a tone control, mid control, gain and volume. With the gain down it's a very nice EQ-able boost; the gain allows OD to dirty OD to distortion. And it's loud. This is my second Xotic pedal (after the S/L above) and it's really solid - it just might make my board.
Rowin Frenzy: a fuzz pedal with a switchable "push 1" and "push 2) that the latter seems a little hotter and brighter. Under US$30 this thing is remarkable for how it cleans up with the guitars volume control - very impressive, and makes for a nice almost-Muff fuzz. And, it's like 1" x 2", about 1/4 the size of a standard noise-box.
