What Klones are out there today ?

Re: What Klones are out there today ?

I had an Archer Ikon. Great Klone but I wasn't thrilled with the buffer. I have a Keeley Oxblood, more Klonish than an actual "klone". No germaniums in the Keeley, switchable between silicon and schottky. More versatile and true bypass. Lots of range in the tone control and can be a great clean boost as well. I love that pedal. Check it out if you are open to a more versatile Klonish type pedal.

From what I've heard of it, I'd get an Oxblood. But then, I am a Keeley fan.

the Soul Food is the cheapest and I've heard it's 95-99% of the way there, but I've also heard great things about the Archer.

The soul food is a cool pedal, and the price is right, but it's too harsh in the upper tone/gain settings. It's a great gateway klone though. I've seen a lot of people buy them, understand what a klon is about, and move on to a more faithful and better sounding klone.

That's pretty much how I feel about my Soul Food. It's a very good pedal, and I definitely wont get rid of it after I step up to a nicer Klone, but I have a feeling it will be mostly relegated to backup duty.

Gateway Klone. Sure we can legalize Soul Food, but then you'll turn to the harder more addictive stuff. Slippery slope my friend.

And you probally just need to swap the diodes for some Germanium ones...

If you are into rolling your own GGG has a kit - http://www.generalguitargadgets.com/effects-projects/distortion/kc/

That looks interesting, and the price is right. Just pulled the trigger on one. Can't wait to try it out.
