I'm not trying to start a "Gear Page craze" thread here. I was just curious as to if anyone had any updated information on the new Klon.

The pedal is definitely over-hyped. That said, it is my favorite OD that I've played with EL84 amps. I have a JHS clone that gets pretty close, but isn't quite the same as a real thing.

I beginning to doubt that this thing will ever get released. It was brought to NAMM:

His website still has the same message from December: http://www.klon-siberia.com/

Anyone know anything?

Who cares when it comes out. I've built six of them already, not a big deal. It's like the new tube screamer, everyone will have one soon.

$1,400 for a pedal? That's an alterior-motive brownie wrapped up in a brown paper bag that smells like I stepped in some brown stuff...

and there's not even any smoke involved! (voltages are too low...doh)

$1,400 for a new Klon, eh?

That's a little too rich for my blood.

In any case, I would like to hear how the new ones sound ..... even if I am unwilling to part with that much $$$ for one. Maybe someone will post a YouTube demo.

I don't think I've ever spent that much on an amp.

I can think of a lot of better things to spend $1,400 on.

That will allow one more to be sold at The Gear Page to the booteek guys.

Seriously, I doubt it will ever come to market.
That ship has sailed and there are numerous clones on the market now.

The new one isn't going to be $1400. That what some idiots are paying on Ebay for them.

Who makes the best clone? I'v A/b'd a few with the real deal, and while they come close, none were spot on. I kept missing this cool low-mid thing.
