I also got that pedal used, and I think it is pretty good for $50. The only thing I don't really like about it is that you have to put the level up pretty high so that your signal doesnt lose volume. Also, I don't really use it on distortion, but I think it really helps out my cleans.
I have a CS-3 that I bought used for $40.
It is a good compressor to have for single coil guitar into a Fender amp to tame the shrill peaks and add a little sustain. You feel more comfortable playing hard without ice picking the front row.
I think it is too much for humbuckers. It really squashes the sound. But for $40 it is a must have for the collection.
