Links to any web pages are always welcome, and please feel free to download any image or copy any text you wish for your own personal non-commercial use. However, please do NOT use the site's image files for your eBay auctions or craigslist ads. It is always best to use actual photos of any used item offered for sale, to reduce the likelihood of a surprised (unhappy) customer.

However, please feel free to quote a portion of our text to better describe your eBay item, if it meets the criteria for fair use (just as we have sometimes quoted from a pedal's user manual).

Politics:
- The completely non-political motivations for starting this website should be clear to all.

Questions? Comments?
- Feedback is welcome! Please e-mail general comments or questions to info 'at' americaspedal 'dot' net. Feel free to e-mail image files of your pedals if you like, but it is unlikely your pictures will be posted on this website until after all planned updates are complete.
- If you encounter technical problems with this website (anything from dead links to site outages), or would like to inquire about trading links or advertising here, please feel free to send an e-mail. There are no plans to add bells, whistles, and ads until this website becomes an ersatz version of Harmony Central. However, it would certainly be nice if ad revenue at least paid for domain hosting and bandwidth costs.
- Finally, there really haven't been enough questions to start a FAQ page, but the one question that *is* frequently asked is whether there are plans to add information on DOD's first series (250, etc.), DOD Performer-series, and/or DigiTech PDS-series pedals:
- The short answer is that we haven't acquired significant numbers of any of those series of pedals to draw any definitive conclusions as of yet.
- The longer answer is that some of those pedals are already so rare and/or expensive that (short of winning the lottery) they won't be affordable anytime soon; therefore, it's not likely this site will be any kind of authority on those series of pedals in the near future. (However, in September 2014 I acquired what is arguably the most rare of all DOD pedals, the 535-A Octoplus, and a section on DOD's Performer series will be added sooner rather than later.)
- That said, images and information from all available DOD/DigiTech advertisements and catalogs will be uploaded, regardless of which series they are from. Eventually information will be posted from the DOD first series, DOD Performer-series, and DigiTech PDS-series pedals currently available, but for now DOD FX-series pedals will be given higher priority.
