no word on pricing, but clonesville... marshall and simpsons artwork on the pedals is a bit of a concern...

It'll be interesting to see how long that lasts.

Someone learnt how to build cloned with GGG boards by the look of it.. :blackeye

Nice looks. BUT the wiring is somehow awful, including some poorly soldered and likely-to-break bare wires (see the MXR phase 90 for instance).Special mention to the offboard buffer that wasn't available on the GGG PCBs... :lol:

I wouldn't buy it anyway... :mrgreen:

I really wonder what can be done to this builder from GGG, Marshall, or Matt Groening... :scratch: I mean, he's somewhere in russia (?) and runs a somehow confidential business... :hmmm:

Mwoah, :blackeye
I've seen worse from respected boahteek builders. A certain R0b3rt K33ly crosses my mind.
Sorry. Plain out of planes.

response from a bloke I know who bought the plexi model .. says it's amazing sounding with his rig.. not sure of the guts/quality but he's very happy with it.

Some of those components look interesting.. There's some Cold War mojo in there for sure!
