My early 80's TC Sustain/Parametric has a distortion section.It is BAD,so bad i took out the switch so it can never be used.More recent versions of the pedal do not have it.No surprise!:flush:

I'm driving down the road enjoying the radio and Give Me Three Steps comes on. I start thinking that's got to be the ugliest sounding opening riff I've ever heard.

Just about any of Randy Roads' studio tones come to mind. Did they just take and run $20 distortion pedal directly into the desk?
