Huh, I actually do. Shame the Klon types I've tried didn't do much for me though!

Plenty of room for the Unicorn tears in that box.

I would totally re-house like a tubescreamer or something in there

Boss HM-2 I reckon.

If you're building your own Klone for personal use and aren't set up for drilling and painting that's a pretty decent deal, assuming the quality is decent. They have a gold one with brown knobs for £14.99 BIN too.

Actually it's incredibly cheap.

I bet the cork sniffers would still marvel at the "transparency of the drive".

in fact fuck it, just wire the input and output together and don't even connect the switch, you could then sell it as the real thing and no one would ever be able to prove differently.

I am gonna see if I can win that. I will rehouse something into it. I have no idea what but I will do something.

Considering a bare enclosure will cost you the best part of a tenner on its own and the rest of the parts could easily rack up another fiver, you're basically getting the drilling, paint and decal work for free. Setting up to do all that at home efficiently and safely for consistently good results could cost you a small fortune.

Dont need to goop it, everyone knows that opening the box lets the mojo out.

I am now the proud owner of  black klon.

Any suggestion as to what I should put it in it?

A first generation zoom.

I would think a 505 is probably rarer than a black klon

Aidanspaghetti

One of those new Boss/Cornish jobs just really confuse the shear outta of everybody!

juansolo

Simple. Tube screamer.

I really dislike tube screamers :-(
