Not that its any good, but my very first pedal was a red label Arion distortion. I remember back when I was 15, the input jack went bad. In the middle of band practice, I opened it up, resoldered the jack to the board and it never sounded better.
After my first few gigs, I started to upgrade my gear so I never looked back to see what it sounded like and gave it away. Were those any good?
@griff10672 do you have an OCD variant?
