YAY. Is that red switch stock? Looks beat up, but $40 for a vintage small stone, :D MOJO

I'm pretty sure it was a black switch originally. Anyway nice one.

What made you go for an Old Stone over a new one?

You couldn't even buy a new one for that price.

I know that - but new = true bypass, not noisy and in the case of the nano stone- very small.

Trew Bypass is like, what, a $5 mod? Plus the novelty of having an old one with the classy 70's font.

Actually more like $10, and probably the big selling point would be the standard Boss 2.1mm DC jack input on the NanoStone.

Anyway what do I know.

Not much. That's why nobody listens to you. In fact, I wonder why you're even on these boards. I bet all those pictures of you playing guitar live are just photoshopped, and that pedalboard is just a big fake made out of cardboard. You phoney.

The novelty of having an old one with the classy 70's font, like shad said, and MOJO, and the price. And it might actually go up in value, unlike the new ones which will go down in value.

Mojo = dried caps + deteriating resisters + wonky values.
