That Pedal Show | Not A Notaklön [Dan's DIY Approach To The Klon Centaur] @ThatPedalShow | Uploaded December 2023 | Updated October 2024, 2 hours ago.
Josh JHS Made A Modular Klon Centaur-alike… Can Dan Do The Same?

Welcome to the show! And very possibly the last Klon show we do. For a while anyway. Because the very, very, very clever people at JHS Pedals recently launched the Notaklön, a Centaur-type OD pedal in kit form. Genius idea, genius marketing.
The easy thing would have been to buy one and compare it to Mick’s Klon. But. But but but but but… this is That Pedal Show and we like to be a little more, erm, enquiring. Thusly, Dan has attempted to deconstruct a Klon circuit, using other pedals to try to explain what’s going on.
Can we do it? Why would we do it? Welcome to That Pedal Show.
Enjoy the episode!
