What do you think of these clones. I know nothing about electronics, but they look decent, and he's sold 12 so far by the looks of it. Is the seller saying that he starts with a standard Ceriatone Centura and upgrades it? If so it seems good value. Not sure if that’s the case, what do you think?

  • I think you'd be off your rocker to spend £250 on a Klone by an unnamed builder off ebay. 

    There are about eight million Klones out there, even an "expensive" one like the Ryra is less than £200. Why this warrants an extra £50 I don't know.

    Looks like the major "upgrade" on the Ceriatone one is to write "Centaur" on the front...

    Either get the one that cost £50 which is a smaller square enclosure, or if you must have that enclosure, get a Ceriatone Centura.  Neither is trying to counterfeit a Klon.

  • But neither will have the magic diodes so it's a massive fail..... ;)

    My head said brake, but my heart cried never.

    It's got proper PCB mounted pots, you know, the ones that break fairly easily and are harder to replace.

    Yeh, I’m not clued up on electronics so didn’t know if his ceriatone plus add ons ( if that’s what it is?) was worth the extra. I’ve already got a Klon KTR,  ceriatone centura (and another on the way), ryra, soul food, archer, tumnus, fredric zombie, rimrock mythical overdrive and two wish klons in the arsenal, but just refuse to pay the money for a Klon Centaur. Although no doubt whatsoever that at some point will.
