Actually, the only reson I mentioned this was becuase I want a bunch of people to get on DOD's case, or for others aleast be aware of the problem. I bought my pedal realizing that the switch would go after a while but because I really liked the tone I figured "well, what the hell." So my $80 or so are down the drain, but it's my own damn fault, and I'll just have to live with it and be a nice 'lil bassist for a while.
