I just don't get it I'm afraid.

lustycourtier

Its a good deal.

octatonic

That velcro on the bottom should knock £200 off it.

Lixarto

Absurd.

Just to put it in perspective, £1100 gets me this:

Or a load of beer and hookers.

I've had every version of Klon. They were all different. All very good. Only ever worth at best the $269 Bill was originally charging. That is a good deal though. Good nick and boxed. You could flip it on eBay and make a quick couple of hundred quid.

"Klon Centaur with horse"? How kind of them to chuck in a working farm animal to sweeten the deal.

Really?

My word.

Yeah, I had a bit of a pedal problem a couple of years ago. At the height of it I had around £7k tied up in little metal boxes!

Well I'll be. 

How many did you have, and how many have you still got? 

(And what's your all time favourite?)

how many times - don't buy it then. The price is there because people will pay it, don't buy it, don't post links linking to it to mock it, just let it go.

He had 6.5 Klon's.

I had two and these days I have just the one.

I didn't pay the crazy price for either of mine. Great pedals and worth a lot to some it would seem.

My apologies, I had heard these were pricey but this is the first I've seen one for sale and I was a little shocked by the level of price.

@Skarloey I went over a hundred. Klons, every variation of King of Tone, every Sunface (still got a few of those), vintage fuzzes, the whole Xotic range and that's just some of the good stuff. Haven't added what I have left but off the top of my head, probably about 30-40. I'm gonna sell most off them off soon. Favourite pedal? Gigrig G2. Best investment I have made. Makes life as a gigging player so much easier. However my tonal tastes change, that will always be there.

He only said he didn't get it, he didn't mock anything. And if he did it's only a pedal for god sake. Just let it go!

Bah, over a hundred pedals is not a problem, It's a good start

...I love that they still want to charge you shipping on top !!

Lol

Amazing what a bit of hype can do to a box of standard electrical components. It's a collectors item, now, I guess. I wouldn't step on it.

I'd definitely want a horse included for that price. The pedal I'm not so fussed about.
