those things are way pricy (and ugly as shit). Well interested to hear your thoughts on it. Big Muff Clone?

Lol yeah - they are fistingly ugly and massive too!
My boss gets them at a severely discounted mates rate, but still expensive as hell!
Curry done with...back in a bit...

Ok quick 10 minute play.
Yes, Big Muff clone. Compared to my old USA BMP it has more low end - a lot more actually, so much better on that front.
Seems more responsive to playing dynamics too, but hard to say exactly without a muff to compare it to.
It is exceedingly quiet, no noise from it at all when you aren't playing.
Didn't find it cleaned up particularly well with the guitar's volume control.
But notes and chords were distinct and not a big mush.
Built like a tank - obviously a very well made pedal.
Worth £421.82? Fuck no.
Couldn't open it up to take gut shots as there are stickers across the base plate saying warranty void if broken.
Overall pretty disappointing - will not be playing again.

Cornish is hilarious. He goes on about his special unity gain buffer.
Any buffer ever designed is inherently simple by design. Complexity does not yield balanced response.
The one in the Klon is excellent and is something like an op-amp, 4 resistors and 3 caps.

If you play a diminished 7th chord a sprite jumps out and gives you a blow job.

Dude, I really envy that cornish fellow right about now. If I could charge that kind of coin, I'd only have to sell like 3 amonth.

I honestly don't know how the cost can be justified.

It can't.
He gets business from people because he builds pedals and pedalboards for Andy Summers, Pete Townshend and Dave Gilmour.
