Let's check out the most hyped of all the hyped pedals, the Klon and let's compare it to my DIY clone...
I really wasn't sure what to expect from it when I built it. After comparing them I'm just seriously surprised to be honest. And while we're at it, let's discuss the idea of pedal clones.

** Why the "Includes paid promotion" message? **
According to german laws everyone has to mark their videos as advertisements as soon as there's a single "subject relevant" product, tag or link in it. Even if you didn't get paid for making that video. Sounds confusing and it really doesn't help the viewer to see which is a paid review and which isn't.
--- The line of truth: Is this actually a paid review? No it isn't but I have affiliate links in the description box. (I update this line for every video).
