Klon KTRs in at Joes Pedals

BBBlues

Hey folks, I was surprised to see Joe has still got some KTRs left in stock! If you're after one just a heads up. http://www.joespedals.com

Charlie Chandler still has them as well, although he is charging £10 more.  He might match the price if you give him a call.

Has the hype died then?

Looks like it.

I'm selling one too! The hype is justified, but I prefer fuzz. Doh.

Well the original Centaurs are holding their price at around £1250. As long as they do I think the KTRs will be in demand.

Love mine, not as a stand alone OD, but sprinkle it on top of a cooking lead sound and its heaven!

In the US where I (think) KTR's have sold out they seem to be at around £400 on eBay which is a stern price

Also there's great demand in the EU too from what I've seen...

Whats a Klon?

I think generally the demand for these has dropped off, certainly hasn't been the frenzy there was on the last batch. I dont just think its ktrs, prices on dam gear and a few other high end bits has dropped aswell.

I think it's largely because people have realised a few things.

Firstly, it's just a circuit - a Klone is just as good.

No, really, it is. Physics.

Secondly, the mythical magical diodes are rare... But not so rare they can't source a few thousand sets of them to stuff into an smd board?

There's still demand for the Klones (I really should get off my arse and make some...), but the hype has finally caught up with it now. It's a really good OD that's a little different to the norm.

Is this a new batch of ktr pedals?    I didn't realise they were still being made.   I know I could get the same sound from a klone but I'm very tempted to try one.  If that's the price for a new one, then it's fairly risk free that I'd get at least most of the money back if I decide to move it on.    I was putting money aside to try a cornish but this might entertain me in the meantime.

Will you get your money back this time? It looks like they're a lot less desirable, not an instant sellout.

So they are new ones?   Is this an ongoing production?   
I'm not thinking about profit or getting all my money back if I decide to move it on, I'd like a pedal to use but given the previous hype I wouldn't expect to take a massive hit if I sold it.

allicio

They are new ones. I believe productions going to be a lot more forthcoming but we've all heard that before!
I don't think you'll take a massive hot if you sold it but I think the days of flipping for profit are gone.

I'm very tempted to grab a new one!   I'm looking for a low/mid gain pedal alternative to my zendrive, and should try one while they are available - thanks for the headup


(just getting sidetracked checking out the kingsley jester though but I hit buy)

Meh, just another mid boost pedal… and I like my mids where I set them on the amp.
