Heard there was a forum upgrade and figured I'd stop by. Really miss the old days here. Loved the pedal talk, but even more so the sense of community and silliness.
My band is not exactly quiet and I never get mine above 3.5. I think once I might have gotten it to about five but that was playing outdoors. Though after five it just gets more distorted not louder. God I wish I could play it on ten all the time.
