I really hope someone buys one expecting to be able to make it sound klon
Not.

I mean I don't think anyone thinks that Klons sound bad?

THEY DO, THOUGH. THEY SOUND BAD AND HORRIBLE AND YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF.
I kid, of course. But I'd still rather that people made Klons sound like FZ-2s than the other way around.

Yes.This.
I don't really care if you want a Klon/e or whatever, but can't we just call it a tubescreamer? Fucking seriously, there are so many variations of that circuit now, I find it difficult to believe that overpaying for one makes it "the best".
Tubescreamers get a lot of hate around here but they're pretty handy really and hardly the worst thing ever and you don't have to use them for their intended purpose.
You know, they'd pair up pretty good with the FZ2 for that mid scoop and some extra gnarl, for instance.
TLDR: CALL A TUBESCREAMER A FUCKING TUBESCREAMER. USE ONE OR DON'T, WHO FUCKING CARES?

So, my BILF entry will be four tubescreamers in a klon buffered true bypass loop, with a shimmer verb at the end.

I’ve been eyeballing a FZ-2 forever but they’re stupid expensive now and rare as hell it seems. Reverb has two, $300 and $600 respectively.
I’m really thinking about pulling the plug on a Demon Lung when Abominable starts selling them again. But I do wish I could snag an OG for a reasonable price.

I painted my OG red when I was like 17.. it still sounds dank though. Just buy one of the Behringer clones, they are like 24$..

I can wait - I’m a patient man! I ain’t buyin’ no Behringer knock off!!
It’s like fuck, Electric Wizard haven’t been good in years. When does the hype train die?

Yeah. Behringer is definitely ass. I never imagined that the FZ-2 would be a collector's item.

Neither did I, the price on those has really exploded this year. Makes me sad I missed picking one up for $100 back in February because I was broke.
