No problem, and none taken. The metal zone pedal was the crown jewel back in the high school days jammin with my friends. I was playing with friends that had the overdrive and distortion pedals, and this one smoked them all. Now I have been recording with a friend of mine for his solo project, and I cant help notice the pedal is a bit noisy, and even trying different cabs, guitars, and mike placement, It always has a pinched nasal sound, and a bit harsh high end to it. I was reading a review about the humphrey audio mod and basically it gets rid of that high end bite, and the noise. It also thickens up the bottom end. I also cant complain about the price...its 45 bucks Plus shipping one way, and my bud will split the cost so long as he can use it for sessions. Thats a lot cheaper than spending a grand or better on a new head, at least thats how I see it. I have already spent money on more processers, effects, pickups, whatever that didnt yield the results I had hoped for. Rather than just potshotting, now Im trying to do research on how I spend my money. Harmony-central.com has been the other site I spend my time on.
