yeah ... i've been through this plenty of times ... so i'm not worried ... it's just a bummer.
i think i'm gonna sell my goatkeeper though ... been thinking about it for a few weeks now.

Sometimes it's a sign that something's actually wrong. It might not be just how your ears are hearing that day.
Quite a few years ago, I had just set up my gear on stage at a gig and started trying everything out. My clean tone sounded really bad - very midrangy and boxy with no high end "chime". I checked the knobs on my amp - they were set properly. I checked my guitar - nope, not that, since the volume and tone knobs were turned all the way up. I couldn't figure out what was going on. Maybe a tube had gone south? Eventually, I realized my wah pedal had been turned on. (Vintage style wah pedals having no status LED seems like a silly anachronism nowadays.) It was boosting a large frequency response spike in the midrange and making my clean tone sound so bad.
