Warm Audio is well known for recreating legendary studio microphones at a reasonable price. No wonder I was really hyped to see that they came out with two guitar pedals, one of which is the Centavo. But is it "the real deal"? Does it bring us close enough to the crazy dynamics and sweet tone of the original Klon Centaurs? Let's find it out. Leave a comment below!
