You're right, as time goes by we gain experience and discover the tone we want based on what we have in mind. I no longer have this pedal as I was learning I realized that it was not what I was looking for.

I tried making a distortion pedal many years ago, but it was not very good. I am sure there are lots of circuit designs out there that would be better. It is probably one of the simpler effects to DIY. I have a modified Boss DS-1 that a friend gave me. That can make some nice tones.
I have never tried to modify a pedal, much less design it, but I would like to, I have no knowledge and I would have to do it with a very cheap pedal to start with and not be afraid of damaging anything
