Funny, I had the same problem!

Gord	Funny, I had the same problem! Hi, I had a V-Twin for a while, changed the cheap Mesa Chinese tubes, and after a while I realized that I didn't like the sound and blamed the new tubes. It took me a while, but eventually I decided to put the old tubes back in. They were only a few months old, so still in good shape. I didn't like it and I realized that the tubes weren't the problem. It was just that I was slowly liking the pedal less and less. I sold it because after A/Bing it with a Boss DS-1 (a pedal I don't particularly like), I thought that the little orange monster blew away Mesa's pedal. That's my story, FWIW. Gord
