I have only done ONE (1) bad trade/sell/purchase of music gear in my entire life. So I can really understand your sore spot. I tried on of those re-issue pedals a while ago, and I really must say that they sound almost identical to the "original". But whats haunting me is that I probably could have traded it for a really GOOD amp instead of that crap.

Nelskie, I played on a Peavey Classic where I purchased my Tele and I must really say that it is a really good amp. What modifications have you done to yours?

Nothing outrageous - just J & J tubes & a Celestion Vintage 30 12" speaker. The re-tube kit I purchased from a West Coast company called Eurotubes, and the speaker I ordered through my friend's shop. The tubes / speaker have made a huge difference in the overall tone and character of the amp. After the mods, I would equate the sound somewhat to a Fender Deluxe or DeVille, with some nice Marshall character to the overdrive channel. I use a closed-back Peavey Classic 112E extension cab with it, which rounds out the bottom-end very nicely, and adds a lot of depth to the tone. It's a really great amp set-up, and one I definitely plan on keeping. Here's a snap of my Peavey rig next to my recently-sold Squier Tele Std.
