Guitarists - Multi effects pedals

Anyone have thoughts on these? I'm looking at Vox Tonelab, and Boss ME 50/70/80. I don't like the Digitechs since they are programmed; the Boss and Vox have knobs to turn which is a lot more comfortable for me. And I have no interest in blowing $150 a pop on a bunch of "boutique" pedals.

I've had the Boss ME-50 for about 7 years now and never had a problem with it. Does more than I need and then some. The Ibanez Tube Screamer pedal is solid too, but only if you're looking for that warm tube sound.

can't stand multi effects pedals. I string a tuner, wah, distortion, and delay in that order on pedalboard with a splitter for up to 4 guitars. kinda want a phaser but keep putting it off.

For shredding at the house, they are fun. However, if you're obsessed with your sound (like I, unfortunately, am), you may feel a little handcuffed by the lack of customization options. For instance, if you have a distortion setting, at best you'll probably have a small range of distortion. If you had a single distortion pedal (say a Metal Master), you have a very wide range of distortion options to fit a wide variety of sounds. It's really up to you, but it sounds like you only want to spend a little bit, so go with a multi-effects. Vox usually makes some good products.
