Even Keeley can't save that one  :icon_lol:

I used to have one, way compressed ... kind of a fun pedal, though.

Naaah... It isn't that different from a multitude of other pedals. Many guys love that pedal after a mod.

Wow, not exactly a simple build. I guess it's probably easier to buy the thing and mod it. I'm not into super-heavy sounds but I might be in a band that requires some of that stuff. The other guitarist has one of those digital Line 6 spider amps, and a couple of those nu-punk (bubblegum punk) songs have a lot lot lot of distortion.
Thanks for sharing, guys.

What does it mean on the chart where it says to replace d2 with a led? Does is serously mean to put an led in its  place? Why? Sorry for this horrible newbie question that is most likely one step away from being retarded but I would like to know. hopefully i can get my warpfactor up to par.

Yes, it does mean to put a LED in it's place.  LED stands for Light Emitting Diode.   ;D  You learn something everyday, right?  I think that the consensus is that LEDs sound crunchier.  How's that for a non-subjective description?
