guitar players are still stupid
The Digitech bad monkey history has repeated itself with the Behringer Klon clone. The secondhand market is a mess and further illustrates that guitar players aren’t exactly the brightest for paying hundreds of dollars more for a different horse picture on their pedals.

Don't forget conformist.
This is why digital effects and IR systems with current tech are absolutely killing it and by "it" I mean the overpriced analog vintage collectors market … Additional words
all i’m saying is choosing this exact moment to be a nerd with long hair and glasses making a broad inflammatory statement is really bold
If you think guitar players are bad just you wait until you look into the synth market. Prices quadruple when audiopilz makes a bad gear episode on objectively bad gear
I'm pretty sure that a sword sounds slightly better than a spear
This is sad, the Behringer Klone clone has turned into a meme coin.
That’s very hurtful and accurate
Im smart.l bought wish klon for 30 bucks.Sounds fine.????
I have played for over 25 years now, I have been seeing stuff like this since Ebay was created so this is nothing new. However, I am surprised at just how much MORE stupid guitarist have become. This pedal is pretty crap to begin with. It's all just so gd silly
I think they're paying only for having "centaur" on the pedal
Oh wow news flash. Guitarists are still stupid?

You just proved the title of your video! That “pointy stick” is known by people who read books as a “spear”.
Josh is brilliant. He talks up the pedals of OTHER makers, thus, driving up the prices while his JHS pedals remain affordable.
lmfao this makes me wana try and sell mine, it doesnt really sound that great compared to like every other clone
Is it a collectable? How many units were sold? They might be a long term investment for collectors
Bruh I love cheap pedals and midrange guitars and vintage solid state amp heads that are dirt cheap. Unironically. Broke Boi Stoner Doom for the win I suppose.
There was also the time when the Behringer FZ-2 clone was super expensive for no reason and go out of stock regularly, I NEVER understood that-
TÖNE WûD FTW
AI centara logo. Three fingers on one hand ????
I agree with you. But in that case i think that prices actually can make sence, just because of the fact that behringer stop creating a first version of klon's clone (without trademark)
and now it became sort of "limited edition klon clone" or something and this is part of guitar pedals history
5:46 It’s not stupidity. It’s that the buyers aren’t musicians, really, and they’re chasing a hobby only tangentially related to music
to paraphrase a phrase from the photography community: they’re not guitarists; they’re guitar equipment enthusiasts. To a gear enthusiast it’s about the
specsifucationsspecs, collection completeness, rarity, cultural importance, story/infamy, et cetera… basically anything but the things that an actual photographer would be in to.Just like the suspected majority of photography YouTube viewers and photography equipment buyers aren’t the men genuinely interested in the craft or pursuit of photography. Most photos they take aren’t dedicated to the art of photography; they’re dedicated to , e.g., testing the sharpness and characteristics of a particular lens at every subject colour, aperture, focus distance and lighting condition or combination that they can come up with, or comparing the comparative robustness of the RAW files from a camera by doing unspeakable things to the sliders in Adobe RAW.
When they aren’t doing that they’re watching videos or reading books and blogs about the downfall of Eumig or something equally esoteric. These are rarely the men buying actual photo books though. That would be boring and pointless.
Some are conscious about this, but others don’t realise that is what they’re doing. The internet has made that pursuit so interesting and easy that they probably aren’t aware that they’ve been sucked away from what they initially intended to do.
All of this applies to a huge majority of the men keeping the used and new music gear markets going. Beyond the guitar playing necessary to enable the endless fiddling and comparing and teasing and swapping and dialling in tones, there’s not much music being made in those rooms. The rest of the time is spent online in pursuit of the next thing that will give a bit of frisson
Edit:
Rereading this I see that I wrote “men” several times. I guess that’s true, though. I think women – sweeping generalisation – tend to focus on the art
All overdrive pedals work the same way. An OpAmp overdrives another one. Or in simpler ones, a transistor overdrives another one. For a „tube“ sound there are two diodes in the circuit. Then you have some simple tone shaping circuits and thats it! When I was young we built these things ourselves because we could not afford the Electro Harmonix, Boss and Ibanez pedals. The electronic parts literally cost a few cents! And then you have gullible guitarists who buy the stuff for a ridiculous amount of money. Perfect marketing!
I always loved the bad monkey cause of phil x
I remember when Wampler Pedals were threatened with a suit by Vox for their ACE THIRTY pedal, so they changed the name. At the time I decided to by a discontinued AT pedal from before the name change. At the time the price on the used market for a discontinued name change was still CHEAPER than a new pedal (same circuit different name). WTF guys, why do you do this to your own community?
You don't even need magic germanium diodes for tone. You can use pin diodes designed for RF instead. You can use 1/3 of a either an NPN or a PNP Ge transistor. I designed a better PCB for a Klon clone myself, and mine uses 1N34s, 1N270s, 1N277s and some of the afformentioned items above.
I just bought a behringer delay pedal which actually sounds good for under 30 bucks I'm listing it for 200 any buyers ????
Awesome follow up!
See you again in two years when the algorithm suggests I watch "Guitar players are still continuing to be stupid".
Fun fact for me is that all those overdrives cost a lot and still sound like s***
Guitar players are still stupid. Look, they still discuss the "tonal" properties of woods used to make a non-accoustic instrument.
I remember when no one cared about the klon.
Tone comes from these-
Let’s be honest everyone is stupid
People just love discontinued stuff
Don't worry, drummers also suffer from this sort of illness. Zildjian released the Kerope a few years ago, then they released it again for even more money. The official statement of course is that this is the closest ever. Just like with Gibson when they try to claim that every 5 years they find some new document and they can make the latest reissue of the Burst even more accurate. Vintage guitars are the same…. people pay atrocious amounts of money because someone farted in the pickup cavity in 1960 and apparently this makes difference in the sound.
This has nothing to do with guitarists. This is just consumers. That's the way it's supposed to be.
Similar thing going on in the retro video game market. It’s just what happens in collector markets.
Guitar players believe magic exists.
Can confirm
