I'm traveling Tokyo next week and I plan to hunt for pedals to build a hybrid board starting with my NUX MG30. I'm set on getting a TS9 but I'm looking for a Klone to stack it with. Initially, I considered the Soul Food or Conspiracy Theory or another Tube Screamer type like the Moonshine (as seen on the right side of the pic) but it looks like mas mura ko pa sila pwede mabili dito or online.

Now I'm exploring Japanese made Klon style pedals to pair with the TS9 since i'll be in Japan anyway, naisip ko baka lang I could find some lesser known klone gems. Any recos or tips?

Current gear:
- Tele with a hot bridge pickup
- NUX MG30
- Headrush FRFR GO

Style/Music:
- Bedroom Guitarist but looking to jam/gig
- Bluesy heavy rock

Note: I've tried to stack the TS + Klon models in my NUX MG30. I'm happy with the tone but I feel like mas better parin if my overdrives come from analogue pedals.

Short context: Fender has been sending cease and desist orders to Guitar builders worldwide that produce Strat style guitars arguing that they own the rights to the Strat style body.

From a business perspective, I get it. They're a big company. As a Guitar player, I absolutely love than everyone's taking a stand against it.

Side note: I've been gushing over the Ligaya Lightning Kid lol
