I'm assuming from the name that this is a woolly mammoth clone:

Very cheap! (at the moment)

I notice he manages to get the words "wool" and "mammoth" in his description as well.

FWIW I don't have a problem with people cloning other pedals, but I feel it's a bit naughty attempting to flog your pedal off someone else's reputation.

Have to admit he's done it rather cleverly though!

Good luck to him IMO. I do think his version, is at least more aesthetically pleasing than the Zvex (Fuzz Face derived) original. :)

Personally I dont have a problem but I know the guys on the DIY stomp box forums look rather unkindly on the cloning of production pedals. I can see the argument, ZVEX make great stuff and relatively speaking they are a small company (compared to say Boss) so these cloned probably do hurt their business. I suppose whether you agree or not there's clearly a market there (understandably people will find ways of making cheaper clones since pedals like the WM are so expensive).


Now cloning old/out of date/rare pedals (rams head big muffs, etc)...that i'm all for!

I don't think it is a one-off, but for the purposes of paying ebay fees, it may be.
