I think I've seen another one also with the dist knob broken off. What were these people doing? Haha. Mine has a busted LED, too. A bit of an inconvenience if I'm using it in a noise set, but on guitar there's no mistaking when it's on, that's for sure!

this makes me want both a rat and a japanese hm-2 again. awesome board.
I'd spent so much time looking at YouTube demo of this boutique fuzz and that boutique distortion box, lusting over everything, before I realised that what I really wanted/needed was a Rat (I've had two before this: sold the first one during a bit of a metal craze—fun fact: my first distortion box was actually a Rat clone—and the second one, one of the newer Chinese ones, decided to stop working all of a sudden). And I was right. So good.
Now that I have a Rat, time to go back to looking at boutique distortion/fuzz boxes
Seriously though, thinking of adding a Meathead-type fuzz somewhere. OR a Muff? Rat into Muff is such a nice sound.
