Can we have a ILFer do a run of Klons for us?

[phantasmagorovich]

so why is it called the Klonopin?

I think thats a med.

[Ancient Astronaught]

Okay, so, four knob KLONopin, three knobs are same as a regular klon, fourth is labeled FRAGILE UPPER HARMONICS, and controls level of lo-fi, and is activated by a second switch, in a regular hammond enclosure (size of like, a tafm) for ease, unpainted, top mounted jacks, with that horse wearing slacks screened on the front.

sounds good?

Fantastic name.

Has Klon in it, also is a high potency benzodiazepine that will fuck you up.

It will also keep you from having horrendous panic attacks brought on by stress, when you need a remedy with a full effectiveness of less than 15 minutes. It is a very useful med for those who actually need it.

True, true, true. Plus, it has a cute little K cut into it.



But, um, you going easy on it right, man? It's not too great for the liver.

Can I trade up the real stuff for the pedal? I think I've got a script for it somewhere here.

I mean, I bet more nefarious things have been done for gear than simply selling drugs. Err, I mean, trading. Trading. Right.

I think the control labels should resemble the ones on Cornish pedals.

So, whoever works in a restaurant or something, you know , just print some out with one of the label makers.

Mine were the generic yellow ones. I'm def taking it easy, after i got out of rehab they needed to put me on a mood stabilizer and now i'm on extended release xanax that i take actually less than perscribed so i don't build up a tolerance and have to increase dosage. I'm trying to play it smart. Rock out on the stage not off the stage. I rarely even drink anymore, maybe once every 2 to 3 months.

Yay to moderation! That's good to hear, man.

Thanks man i appreciate it, to me music is the best medicine for anything that ail's you.

Thanks, D.o.S., for taking the time to explain.

I get that everyone wants to be able to make the sounds they hear in their head, their ideal guitar tones. I understand the part about making fun of people who fall for the Klon hype. I think it's funny to have a pedal with Klon-ish graphics on it. What I don't understand is why you guys want to actually incorporate a Klon circuit into the ILF version of the Klon. If there isn't any appeal for that specific circuit in the first place, why even include it? Why not just make something more "fucks everything up" to begin with and call it a Klon? Am I missing the joke completely or are you guys taking something that's only a little bit funny to an extreme?

IDK. I guess I've never really been a person who follows trends.

Like Theavondon, I'll also be using it on bass. A lot of my interest in the Klon circuit is curiosity, but also because even if I don't like it for my board, it's a useful circuit to have in your arsenal for lending/recording.

Disclaimer: I'm going to do clips on a disguistingly cheap guitar (which I play very, very badly) into a Crate-level ten watt combo. For true Dumble Toanz.

Also, the Klon hyperbole is pretty ridiculous:

OTOH, if it can really make this happen, why wouldn't I buy one?

[hazelwould]

I really hope this Klon turns out to be an 8 1/2" by 17" at the very least.

[smallsnd/bigsnd]

don't worry yo i got 7" covered.

Oh, and by the way, round of applause for Brian errybody.

Erryday you do something that makes it harder and harder not to buy a fuck, you rascal you.
