I guess it was bound to happen. The Klon circuit just like the Tube Screamer has been around so long it has become just a starting point to take in a hundred directions.
Fret King is another of Trev Wilkinson's
efforts. The Fret King guitars have a solid following. Wilkinson guitar hardware is his best known product.
It started out as budget hardware & like all of the man's endeavors the innovation and quality has him in with the 'big boys'.
I just got some of his Strat type locking tuners
and with a 19:1 ratio they are a treat to tune with.
Trev Wilkinson worked along side Leo Fender
for about three months and they became the best of friends.
Trev was the last guy to see Leo before he died.
His new locking Strat bridge is killer!!! Best of all you could even play a guitar with one on it and not even notice it locked.
The Klassic has the standard Gain, tone and Level set up.
It has two inputs in and two out to make connecting to other pedals easier. It has the Klon transparency but it has a bit more gain then a Klon. the Klon has a liquid like smoothness in the tone where this pedal has an earthy warmth. the Fret King has a very nice fullness to it and a very full near even resonance in the mids. The Kon has it's distinct honk in the mids.
It has an excellent tone thru it's whole range from the expected low gain but right thru to a very nice medium gain.
It reminds me more of a Klon stacked on a Plexi pedal.
A really good mid range pedal full of character.
