Ricky	Re: how many of you guys OD pedals? Dirty, the dirt box is pretty well the hotbox's OD chanel, with a mid control, and NO true bypass. This really blew me away, one side of the DPDT is turning the effect on and off and the other side is turning the LED on and off. also the 470K resistors (from the hotbox schem) that follow the gain pot and the .022 coupuling cap after the 2nd gain stage is 220K in my Dirtbox. I think i'm going to remove those resistors anyway to get a little more dirt. have you built a hotbox? I'd be very interested in hearing about any mods youve done to the circuit
