I had previously built a standard Kliché mini but it just felt bland, nothing appealing enough to knock my Tumnus off my board. The Kliché Special Edition is the klone I needed! When I saw the mock-up, I knew I wanted to build it. Look at those pots tastefully arrayed in a nonstandard arrangement, the choice of LED placement!
I started buying parts before I even ordered the board, some mini Davies ox blood knobs, Tayda champagne metallic enclosure(halfway between gold and silver). Then my favourite parts, the Mullard OA10 germanium diodes from smallbear. I swiped the champagne case from my Sandspur build and drilled it out, then I waited for the board to arrive. There must be a few versions of the board out there because I saw one with 9mm pots, thankfully Tayda parts are cheap so I had bought both sizes just in case.
Everything went together perfectly (surprising since I was in the hospital for flu symptoms earlier in the week!), though I didn’t have the 560ohm resistors, so I got creative with some values I don’t use often.
I’m really happy with the growl of this pedal. In fact so happy about the result that I sold my Tumnus after playing it once. Not much else to say, it’s just my latest favourite pedal!
