NO MORE CRAZY DUTY FEES and shipping costs AND the extra taxes

Just a rumor but worth looking out for. I heard Pete Cornish pedals will be part of their regular stock along Skreddy and others.

"ROCK THE GASBAH" is the boutique shop...website in construction I hear. Clever name though :)

Sounds interesting, I'll keep my eyes peeled for it!

David Hildago from Los Lobos has some of the best tone I've heard, and he uses pretty much all Boss and Maxon pedals.

That said, I love my Klon.

I bought it for $329 from Bill, though. No horsey, no premium price. Just awesome dirty-ish drive.

I've never cared for the OCD. Before my Klon, I had a Fulldrive in its place and quite liked that though.

Thank God we're all different.

I've yet to find an OD I like better for live situations and I've tried most. Never owned a Klon though. I've also never heard a clip that convinced me that I needed one. I'd love to check one out but not for those prices. I did get on the list for a Kingsley Jouster which I'm really looking forward to.

That's pretty funny...I ordered the Kingsley Jester. Should be getting it in a month. I did try the pedal out in a studio and I must say it blew away my Butler Tubedriver in tone and clean boost. I love the TD but the Jester just has that much more.

Nobody needs one. I'm sure glad I have one, though.

Would you pay $800 for another if yours got stolen? What is so good about it cause I cannot see anything online either that would convince me to buy one.

No, but I would definitely buy another brand new one direct from the manufacturer for $329.

I don't care if you buy one or not. I'm not collecting commissions on them. In fact, if you don't think you want one, I'd suggest you don't buy one. You probably wouldn't like it. Works for me, though.

LOL, this is so true. Want and need are two completely different animals.
