How about Old_Iron or fuzzbuzzfuzz? Seems like something they would be interested in? An OD-1 with a defeatable tone knob seems like the best OD-1 you could ask for.
I am indeed sorely tempted by an OD-1 variant though I have spent quite a few beans on acquiring 2 x Od-1s this past few months (a Silver Screw and a Black Screw). Prices were reasonable though so I'm certainly happy with them.
(and more keep popping up!)
Slight sidetrack : A long time ago when I was beginning gigging, and on my first trip to Japan in the cold winter of 2015 iirc, I purchased my first "boutique" (or what I thought constituted such) pedal in Kyoto. This was a Noah's Ark "Yellow" pedal, emulating the last iteration of the OD-1. I had a quick shoot out as, my wife patiently waited, comparing it to the NA "Green" their TS variant. I finally settled on the Yellow and gigged with it as a drive in the UK for a while - despite it being typically bright and more ideal as a booster. I loved the overall natural feel of the drive ("Tubey") and compared it to (what I thought ) were the metallic tones of the BOSS offerings at the time. I was playing through a solid state amp at the time.
SO I have 3 x OD-1s.
(though no long chip)
Also, I made a painful boo-boo with the 2 pedals Laurie sent....
Whilst tidying up the pedal den, I rested them on a rubber slip/grip mat, a sort of thin roll of cheap rubber material with holes. Probably for a few weeks. Unfortunately that particular brand of cheap mat - for whatever reason - destroys the underlying particular clear coat/paint of pedals!
I was horrified to discover my two 32 pedals now had the imprint of the mat partially on their rear plates, quite deep into the clear coat, like a grid pattern. Really quite annoying since they were new. I popped magic tape on the base of the Overdrive (which had the most obvious imprinting and cleaned as best I could the TB. But you know, OCD, and new items, I was so annoyed with myself!
SO, long story short I'm on the fence!
@Laurie - I would imagine it's an exceptionally long shot to ask if you happen to have spare baseplates in the same colors?
I might be tempted by an OD-1 pedal if so, but I know that's an awkward strange request, so no pressure course! Totally my fault. Otherwise I love the pedals.
