People on here are generally too civil for public scolding, but You do realize there is a Klon on that board and there is quite a lot of mockery going on about that pedal over here.
@Rat King: I had no idea! I only ever frequented this gear board, my first love and I know about most others only from hearsay. I did post a couple of times on Muffwiggler and the DAM forum, but never really got involved. I probably just wanted to unlock the bst section.
Maybe I'm a bit naive, but I think most people here would be in agreement that the Klon is a nice overdrive and if you're interested in overdrive I think most dudes would want to at least jam through one. The pedal cops shit, and rightly so, for the prices people pay, and the reactions it elicits from certain people. However, I don't think you see those reactions here - i.e. that people go nuts about gold vs silver horse, that it's a million times better than your Caveman drive or whatever is popular etc. I mean, look at the Chanks/Skully klon comparison thread. It's a pretty long thread mostly with people psyched to hear about a pedal and compare some stuff. Been a while since I read it, but I don't recall anyone flipping out and arguing over differences in diodes/prices etc. Any arguments about Klons have mostly involved dudes with pretty low post counts.
But I'm an optimist when it comes to how open ILF is. I could be totally wrong on this front.
