      That is valid, I mean nobody is forcing you to buy anything. The Klon thing is getting out of hand though. TC Electronic has the Zeus, which is a %100 accurate clone for less than $60. I don't think it is really fair to the consumer to throw another $250 version of what is really a low cost circuit. Like most pedal circuits. People spend too much time chasing unicorns rather than dialing in a sound and learning to play.

      Who the hell is paying 300+ bucks for a flanger? And if you have to connect your drive to the Klon somehow to get ppl to pay any attention to it- should tell ppl something- and it's 300 bucks as well. The compressor is better- not quite so horribly overpriced, simple, effective- it may sell a few units but- I'm disappointed. PRS had a chance here to bring something truly new to the market, for a reasonable price- instead they went totally the other direction.

    Not a huge fan of the knob placement on these. They're kinda close to the switches, and on the flanger the bottom left knob could be read as another footswitch. They do look pretty and sound good, though

    • @TheSpydersBand
      @TheSpydersBand Год назад +2

      I agree. The compressor switch is way too close to the knob. Both of those knobs could have been horizontal higher up. The flanger is a little better, but more distance would help. The OD is OK.

    PRS has finally beaten this dead horse enough to get horsemeat out of it. The music world has been over saturated with pedals for at least a decade at this point. I think Fender alone has made like 3 separate series each with there own OD, distortion, delay, etc. all in the past decade. And on top of that, that Horsemeat does sound like a real Klon, it's harsh and shrill, similar to a cheap practice amp. I don't even like PRS guitars to begin with so I, like many other people in the comments, are gonna a take a pass on these oversaturated, overpriced clones.
