Klon KTR. What gives?

I thought the point of this pedal was to be cheaper/ more accessible.

 

So why are there people trying to hawk KTRs for $450?

Re: Klon KTR. What gives?

In his latest attempt to hype the shit out of his pedal the Klon guy shut down production because the factory wasn't up to his standards or something.

Re: Klon KTR. What gives?

no better way to up the price than to make production scarce.

no worrys...he can always sub-out thru another high-quality vendor like:

 

- Catalinbread (oh wai....Echorec, EP, dat chorus,

- MojoHand (nah, nix that: Iron Bell, Rook Royale W/CHEESE MUTHAFUGGAHS )

- Earthquaker (well, no here too since everything they touch is gold).

 

 

Anyway...soon as Teh Boston BigMan picks up a soldering iron, there'll be Klons galore...

He was forced to redesign the KTR because it wasn't as transparent as the originals. I applaud his efforts and his commitment to transparency.

Re: Klon KTR. What gives?

I tried one a couple of weeks ago, actually muy first Klon experience ever

I wasn't blown away, too higgh expectations, but I did love the aesthetics of the KTR

A/B'd it with a Klon clone (can't remember which one, too expensive anyway) but soundwise, I preferred the clone

Once back home, I pulled out the Banzai Cold Fusion and that is still the one that suits me best

Re: Klon KTR. What gives?

I'm thinking it's all hype too. I listen to youtube demos and it just sounds like every other transparent overdrive pedal (to my ears at least).

But I was watching an interview with Joe Perrys guitar tech and he was just raving about the pedal, saying it's Joes favorite, and how it's the best, and a vital piece of gear. I figured these guitar vets should be savvy enough to not fall for the hype, unless they are purposely trying to create it.

Re: Klon KTR. What gives?

a friend of mine is actually the one that helped bill with the ktr. i don't know if this is 100% true but he said there's been some issues with the build and bill is really careful who ends up with the final product. obviously with trying to keep the cost down, he went with a _______ (insert 'build' word, chip? instead of parts... i'm no builder). the way he talks about the klon and how bill worked on it for years and years is really impressive to be honest. i think he even has the prototype of the original klon which is ridiculously awesome. it just looks like some random black box. really awesome guy and from what he says about bill, he seems like a pretty cool guy that wants his pedal to be affordable and reliable.
