Y'know, MadBean shows a lot of consideration to newer boutiquish designs, and has dropped a lot of his boards out of his line. Doesn't even authorize others to sell copies of his Klone layout in his BST like he does for other pedals. So this is a really shitty move.
Fuck, circuit and etch-your-own layou are still up there. Take a couple weeks to do a good derivative layout of your own if you want to fleece TGPers without being a complete douche.

Especially with ith the advent of FSB.com I am surprised that anyone believes they can get away with hiding anything inside their pedals. I find it even funnier that this guy was pulling his shenanigans with a PCB from a prominent member of FSB.com.

What a scummer. ILF is a place of love and consideration towards musicians and gear heads alike. I'm just glad my love of music and gear led me here first and I never had to go anywhere else (aside from DAM but I can't afford much of that stuff, just a good forum for information and great videos).

You're insane, but that's what makes you unique.

That is pretty low, but hasn't Tone Monk always touted themselves as selling Klon sound alikes?

i saw some tone monk demos on PGS a few weeks ago and was so totally underwhelmed.
and, for some reason the name "tone monk" even sounds sleazy.

I have a feeling more and more of this shit is gonna pop up in the near future, especially with how the boutique pedal
market has exploded in the past 3-5 years, there's defiantly been tons of scammers that we dont even know about
