![]() ![]() Clones of the original Klon come in a whole range of different sizes and their prices vary wildly.Īs a result, it is not easy to figure out the pros and cons of these different pedals. The might have tried to alter or improve the Klon’s circuit in some way, or to have totally changed the design of the pedal. Others have been less faithful in their recreation. Some of these are basically carbon copies of the original, both with regards to their features and design. There are a huge number of these ‘Klones’. And you will be glad to know that these pedals are much more budget friendly than the original. So the question then, is how can we capture the sound of the Klon, without paying the inflated prices on the second hand market?įortunately – various pedal manufacturers have created brilliant copies of the Klon (often wittily referred to as ‘Klones’). ![]() My conclusion was that although the Klon is a brilliant sounding pedal, the price of used Klons has less to do with the tone of the pedal, and more to do with its popularity amongst famous guitarists, its scarcity, and the mystery behind its production. In my last article on the topic – ‘ Why Is the Klon Centaur So Famous?‘ – I covered 8 of the main reasons why the original Klons have now become so expensive. It has reached an almost legendary status, with original Klons now selling for upwards of $3100/£2500 on sites like Reverb. The Klon Centaur is one of the most famous guitar pedals of all time.
