J. Rockett Audio Designs Archer Ikon

Ordered this because every semi-serious guitarist needs a Klone.

Pros:
+ Sound very close to the original Klon
+ Beautiful golden design
+ Awesome transparent overdrive that deserves a place on most pedalboards
+ Very flexible: can go from (very lightly flavoured) boost to ballsy gainy tones

Cons:
- The Wampler Tumnus is essentially the same pedal, except smaller (mini pedalboard!) and 50 EUR cheaper & just as beautiful.
- No fabric pouch to store it in, which the Tumnus does come with.

This one cuts too much bass, much more than the silver version (I have both). But I find its OD sounding more pleasant and musical than the silver one. It sounds honky, a bit like a cocked wah pedal, I can hear a prominent peak in the mids. It is very dynamic and has a high input headroom. Buffer is ok (better than that of standard Boss pedals). Built (and weighs) like a brick.
