I'm the original owner of this Harmonic Distortion pedal. This is a pretty rare pedal and doesn't show up much on the radar these days (as Guyatone stopped making pedals a while back). It works great and has a wonderful sound. It wasn't my choice for go-to distortion sound as I'm a jazz guitarist and prefer a more clean tone, so it hasn't really been used very much at all. I replaced the knobs on the top as I had lost one of the old ones - and the rubber gasket on the back has a little break in it (from age), but doesn't affect the workings of the unit, and could be fixed/replaced for a couple dollars. Otherwise, it's pretty flawless.
