Most disappointing distortion pedal you ever tried

[headlessdeadguy]

I’m a mad scientist. I can usually get a usable tone out of just about anything with enough fucking around. I certainly have thrown a few pedals in the trash within 10 minutes. I’ve also sold some that I wish I hadn’t. Would like to have the SLO preamp back to give it another chance. The one pedal I hate is the OCD. it has a certain nasally characteristic to it that makes me almost nauseous.

ROSS (not BOSS) distortion pedal. If a MXR Dist + messed around with it’s cousin’s Fuzz, this would be the offspring

Not a distortion but the fultone ocd was the most over-rated piece of gear I’ve ever seen. I said it.

Generally agree with this. But there are some things that are just so bad that it's impossible to get any kind of usable tone. Gorilla amps, and the DOD American Metal pedal fall into this category.

That pedal sucks! I hate it.
