Up until now my KLon has been the NUX golden horse. Almost always on - a pedal I don't want to part with. The NUX is actually very good. Switchable between gold and silver versions and also able to switch between true bypass or buffered when not on. I keep it in buffered at the beginning of my chain.
The circuit is originated from build your own clone Silver pony in vero layout from Mark @ tagboard effects along with a few other Klon options. I seem to almost always opt for the silver version on the NUX so that was my choice.
Again my etching has turned out rather scratchy, but given I wanted an aged celtic look it fits well.
The firehorse text was fairly illegible, so began me starting to fix things to the box as I decided to cover it with a remade bit of aluminium.
I did find some extra noise issues, and would recommend some shielded(grounded) input and output wires here and get the right voltage doubler. One drawback here is I had to to 125b enclosure due to size of vero board, so it takes up more room than the little NUX. Other than that works great.
