After reading Robert's thread on Distortion pedals I happened to go on Kijiji. I was looking for a Marshall head and found a listing for the Hot British. I was in the Toronto version and it turned out the listing was actully in my home town. It was a year old and was listed for 135. I took a ride over and I got it for 125, The box had a Long and Mcquade price tag of 249.
The only distortion I was using was a DS-1. This pedal is way more versatile and I really like it. There are many settings and It really works well on the Green or clean channel of my marshall. I don't even need any of the OD pedals. On my 65 it really sounds sweet with a bit of od from my OCD or Fulldrive.
I am glad I read the thread and took Spudman's recommendation.
I am really having a lot of good luck with Kijiji. There are a lot of motivated sellers out there. So far I have bought the tonebone, a Gibson LP, an Avatar cab and the Marshal DSL 401. All for less than half of their original price!
