        At the moment, my favorite is a Zoom Ultra Fuzz. Unlike
most zoom stuff, it actually sounds good ;->. Works very well
on my Stick, and sounds great fuzzing out synthy sounds from
the gr-20/x-911/fm4. If I want more of an metal type
sound, I've got a dod fx70 thats insane (sold under several
names like "corrosion", "metalX", "bigfatpig"). I occasionally
use it when doing noise stuff after loops (especially 
heavily detuned loops).
