I just bought a French Toast brand new for $26 on tehBay, I've had it for approximately 15 hours. It's great. Tweaking the controls and my strat/jag volume knobs a bit I was able to nail pretty much every riff I associate with octave-up effects, also got some crazy whacked-out Blender-type chaos that yielded some ultra-satisfying riffing for an hour or two, very pleased with it.

Except it sounds shit through an AC30.

And HERE is a thread about rehousing dano minis... doesn't sound worth the trouble to me, the Milkshake chorus I've had for 7 years is doing fine and it once saw heavy pedalboard use.

All of the little plastic dano pedals I've had are absolutely fine. If you're that bothered, just get an FX loop and stick them in that so you don't have to stamp them.
