I was in Target today and saw some of these (Distortion, Chorus, Wah) has anyone checked any of these out?  They all seem to be pretty solidly built, are they mod-worthy?

no, i had the chorus and the flanger...they sound decent on their own. but you can find better for the price (FAB).
no longer the battle of midway...(i left that band)...

i hate signatures with gear lists/crap for sale....

i am a wah pervert...ask away...

At the Target by my house they even have little audio demonstrations of each effect.  It's pretty cool.  I wouldn't put one on my pedal board but if it gets kids into RAWK, then it's okay in my book.

Sorry, don't know about the pedals, but I just picked up a Lyon electric bass at the swapmeet for $90.  Good build quality, needed a little action adjustment, but plays and sounds okay.  I'm going to give it to my 14-year-old niece, who's probably about as tall as the bass is long. :icon_smile:  Had no idea they were selling at Target. . . .  :icon_rolleyes:
Solder first, ask questions later.

I was at Target again today and the Lyon Wah pedals are on clearance for $50.  I have no idea what if any electronics would be salvagable but it is approaching the price of an empty wah shell.

My bro (a neurosurgeon who could afford about any pedal) bought the wah. He lives down the street from Wilcutt in Lexington which has all the boutique amp and gear you could want and he comes home with this.  I have to say I was surprised that it didn't sound as bad as I wanted it to.
If it ain't broke...   ...it will be soon.
