OVERDRIVE- 68 PEDALS King of Clone ...the King of Tone OD!!! UPDATED

68 PEDALS KING OF TONE 
$130.00 USD !!!


Well 68 are a small Chinese gourmet pedal maker that do the unthinkable. They make clones of great pedals ...but the build and parts are totally without compromise.
Yes you get a great price but for a MIC pedal they are not an under $50 cheapie. 

You get a high end gourmet pedal at the prices you pay for MXR or Boss and even Electro Harmonix.

There are quite a few 'Me Too' clones of the KOT. But damn it ....this one is unreal.
After several listens I find the 'Clone' oddly just a shade fatter. One could argue it is just a little muddy too. But I am being hypercritical. When I say 'a shade' I mean just that! Barely perceptible. I think in a blindfold test many players would pick 
the 'Clone' as being the King simply because 
it is just a nano bit fatter.
According to Brian Wampler even the best parts
are ALWAYS a bit higher or lower than spec written
on the part. Or in other words 3 real KOTS will
spec different enough

UP DATED CONCLUSION
The proof is inside the box!
