Rory Gallagher fans might be interested in this pedal which was recently released by Flynn Amps of Glasgow, Scotland.

"Cloned from Rory Gallagher's original 70's Hawk® booster."

Unfortunately, it's quite expensive (£185 plus £15 shipping outside of Europe). At today's rates, that's $323.66 U.S. or $376.09 Canadian. I certainly wouldn't pay that for a single effects pedal but maybe some Rory Gallagher fanatics would.

You peaked my attention 64G.  Not that i would ever go out and buy something like this, I never play out, but damn how cool would that be to plug a strat into this and then into a Vox or Fender amp and sound like Rory (except nobody could ever hope to play like him).

Yeah, we came across this a few weeks back on another forum I frequent (Bare Knuckles Pickups). I don't buy pedals anyway, but the general concensus was that it was a bit pricey.

Apparently, it does exactly what it says on the tin, though :)

And then the thread descended into a "signature" products discussion :D - would the artist approve, etc? My gut feeling is that Rory would have been a bit confused or non-plussed by this particular item :D
