Ah, the infamous Klon Centaur. That mythical sound that can be yours for the low, low price range of $2,000-4,000, if you can find one. For those of us who think that staggering amount of cash just might be able to be spent elsewhere, we’ve got the Klone. Surfacing in many forms, colors, configurations and sizes, these homages to the original give the masses that Klon tone, without the hefty price tag. We’ve got another one for you today – the Cklone Overdrive from CKAudio.
Like the majority of Klone pedals, the Cklone features the same three-knob layout as the Centaur: Gain, Treble and Output. These replicas usually feature something just a bit different from the vintage units, and in this case, it has some upgraded components and a reduction of the bass roll-off the Klon is known for. Using a pair of hand-matched germanium clipping diodes, the Cklone works as a clean boost with tons of headroom, a low break-up first stage drive and a smooth, crunchy overdrive to push the front end of your favorite tube amp. It also pairs well with other pedals, stacking beautifully with tubescreamers, bluesbreakers, Fuzz Faces and Big Muffs alike.
The insides are designed with low-noise operation in mind, using crystal clear high performance op-amps and long-lasting, top quality, hand tested components throughout. Each CKAudio Cklone Overdrive is hand tested prior to shipping, and the high quality audio jacks and smooth control pots ensure a lifetime of gorgeous tone-shaping operation. If you need that authentic sound of the original, but don’t want to take out a second mortgage on your home, the Cklone is exactly what you’ve been searching for. Be sure to visit the CKAudio website, Check out our demo below to hear it in action and don’t sleep on our Klone Wars series on YouTube, where you can hear the Cklone Overdrive in action against some of the best Klones out there. Cheers!
