    Yessir. Welcome to pedal-ville.

    My first pedal was a Boss DS-1. I got tired of it and traded it away, but now that I listen to clips of it now and then, it seems like it could be plenty useful if you spend some time with it. I think a lot of people just crank up the gain and then complain that it's too fizzy and/or saturated, but you'd figure that's what a distortion pedal is going to do.

    Anyway, congrats on the pedal. It's a long and dark road that you've chosen down the path of stompboxes, but one that's rife with colorful distractions.
