Saw the release announcement for the JHS Notaklon the other week. Looked like a fun way to get another Klone for about $100. Well, I was a couple hours late to get on the 1st wave of shipments, so mine will show up in a little over a month or so. No biggie. My thoughts and impetus to order were: it'...

I checked mine. All have large PCBs. FZ1W: has a double board with mostly SMD. HM2W : single board, almost all SMD. https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-0bRNyLnJL0pZOju37gIGvAJPjGm5zan3rARPapS3bn0dcI3CQLO-hCo-UV8agsd7V7ntXQOewWgszVPDOQPWWw?cn=THISLIFE&res=medium&ts=1701065896 https://uniim1.shutt...

I have no idea why but the DS-1 50th Anniversary model sounds really really good ! It’s the same circuit as any other new DS-1. I must be listening to it through rose tinted ears The other two in the series sound pretty good too.

Plus, it kind of gets Muff-y when not used in the 'Swedish Chain Saw' way. Just like ...

That's cool. Nice to see a 2 knobber!

Are there any documented notes on the SD-2 changes somewhere? I don't have any documentation, but I did open up my two SD2s and noticed that the boards did have some variations. One is from 06/1993 and has been modded a bit, the other is stock and from 11/1994. From what I understand, the SD2 start...

On the left, the stock one that looks real nice is from 11/1994. On the right, the modded one with some miles on it from 06/1993. Here's some gut shots. https://uniim1.shutterfly.com/render/00-0bRNyLnJL0pZOju37gIGvAJPjGm5zan3rARPapS3bn1E_UbfsZzHD2EL7VSHWw3VUnDnu4gHHWpfyYq5WwzmNg?cn=THISLIFE&res=medi...
