I'm a long time reader but infrequent poster here but I just had to share with you this new pedal! Only available on the 25th of December!

ha, ha! I like it! and the 'Gain Booze' knob is a nice touch!

so this is a kind of modulation pedal, then? (does it make your guitar sound all Christmas-cheery?) and I wonder if Boss will release a Hanukkah or a Kwanza pedal as a companion pedal to the MC-2?

Recommended settings are to max out the 'peace' & 'love', 'nuts' about half way and adjust 'gain booze' to taste; great for those "Frosty the Snowman" riffs!!

I wish I could find a Boss font, would have made this a lot easier. I made all the letters from the standard MD-2 Mega Distortion picture by cutting and pasting in Paint Shop Pro.. it took quite a while!

Haha, I must have been too heavy on the gain booze so I missed the 25th December sale. Or maybe Santa just skipped my house...

On the font issue:
I was looking high and low for fonts when I made the pictures on the gallery pages. I could never find one that had a perfect match. I even started making a font but it was too difficult to get it right. In the end I resorted to the same method that redzone has used here. Cutting and pasting letters from different pedals and pixel editing in Paint Shop Pro. For most pedals I had 10 or 20 pictures that I downloaded and used pieces of. Some pics still aren't perfect. You can see how the text on the PQ-3B is slightly warped.
