Had the walrus been the first pedal played, the score would be totally different. No way the walrus sounded that much different from the tumnus.

The Wampler Tumnus is the stuff of unicorn poop in that tiny box!!! Amazing box!!

It makes me happy whenever someone plays a Nuno riff. And especially happy when they play the BEST Nuno riff.

Hey guys, I just wanna say I'm LOVING these pedal "blindfold" challenges. Thanks for doing them. It's really giving me an edge on my pedal choices! You guys rock!

Can you please redo this challenge with the Captain or Pete doing it with a cleaner Fender amp. It would be interesting to see the difference in results.

Great choices Rob your ears are undeniably good! I have the Oxblood and love it but that Tumnus was also sweet.

These blindfold videos are great, most unbiased and interesting reviews on KZread

Robert, thanks for speaking on this. You are truly a living LEGEND!!!

Finally some love for SGs

Been waiting a loong time for this!!!

That SG is super hot. Damn!

Awesome, I bought a oxblood two years ago, and it's still my favourite pedal

Just ordered a Tumnus from these guys that I’ve been hankering after for ages. Big fan of my Soul Food, but I just had to get one. Can’t wait to try it.

I love that you guys are doing so many of these, they work so well as both entertainment (for obvious reasons) and as ads, since we're getting pure chappers opinion to know whats good. EHX are probably making so much money from the sales this is generating for their pedals lol

You combined the prequel and original trilogy in the opening crawl. I am happy with whoever made that up. Kudos!

Great video. Elektron's Analog drive has also a very nice Klon style drive.

Can we ban Rob from playing all guitars except SGs from now on? His SG riffage is just stellar.

I loved the tone of the ryra for some reason that thick tone with still that super nice tone

Love the intro ! Nice job !

Love it! I have the Tumnus, no regrets here. Shopping for the Oxblood, sounded more Rat-y to me thought, seems like a nice wide spectrum overdrive/distortion pedal.

Another great test is “which sounds best in a mix”

Sometimes Rob just crushes some guitar licks during these pedal challenges.

Awesome to see an SG in your hands!

Thanks, that was very helpful. I've narrowed it down to the Tumnus or Archer.

EPIC INTRO!!!

Credit to Chappers on that SG. Sounds exactly like an SG should. Love it.

The Keeleys pedals are really amazing. I have 3 and they are my favorites

Gibson SG plus that Friedman is absolute perfection!

This is absolutely glorious

I like all these crazy blindfold tests, this pedal one has been quite informative for me on the tones of the pedals in question give out. Very helpful if your local guitar shop is a small business and can't stock every pedal available from the dealers they use.

I think the position of the Volume makes more of a difference in tonal quality more than anything else, the Oxblood changed completely. If Lee had played around with the volume knobs on the last few pedals, would have been a different outcome. Thanks for putting this up guys, nice to hear these all together! Waiting for pt. 2 with pedals like Matthews Architect, Tumnus v2, maybe even the Helix version! Cheers!

I’ve had some success with the walrus voyager with the same final settings. Interesting to hear it through a marshall relative to my ‘57 deluxe reverb. I’ve been using it to push the high end of the sound and have been swapping out a second overdrive behind the voyager. Helps with a really well rounded, thick sound and cuts through a mix well.

I have watched many or most of the vids from Andertons on Klon like pedals. My take is that I prefer Danish Pete’s playing style - more nuanced and melodic, but Chapper’s ear is much more refined and discerning….I trust Chappers ear implicitly, even though his playing too metal orientated

Ok now I want an Oxblood pedal too. It DID sound great...That combo of SG into the Pink Taco was such a perfect fit too,...the pedal just seemed to really accentuate and take into uber-phat land that trademark and distinctive SG tonality....the three just sing, scream and grind together. Nice!

Blindfold videos = the best videos

I love these videos, I love the engament that Robert Keeley does, it's so rare for people to come in to the ocmments and tell us about their work and at the end of the day this one proves why rob thought it was the best. A clone with ideas.

That intro was epic!

dumble klone pedals next, I'm intrigued to hear that!!!!

I must agree. My two favorites were the Wampler and the Oxblood. And I would have to give the edge to the Oxblood. Honorable Mention to the Mythos. Honorable Mention to two Honorable Menschen: Rob and Lee. 🙌🏼

The Tumnus is amazing!

Robs playing was killer! Having started a channel recently myself (not under this name) it's really hard to consistently come up with things to play especially if your tired/not in the mood/shooting back to back and he always does a great job, helps when you can fall back on a back catalogue of awesome riffs you've written too! :)

Great video guys. Loved it! 👍 Would have been nice to hear an actual Klon and compare it to the pretenders.

Looking forward to the first run of the "whelmed" t shirts.

That SG is really cool. Suits you rob. You vibed on it.

Rob's ear is so keen, maybe he should become a sound engineer. He knows tone for sure.

Gotta agree about the archer pedal, that sounded fantastic! That said, the whole lot was pretty impressive. Still can’t decide for myself between the archer or the tumnus.

i own a bad horse and I must say its best bang for buck. Great sounding pedal

Ryra is a great pedal for me is the best of these distortions pedals

Some of the stuff Rob was playing is making me crave a new Dorje album so bad

Rob would really love the Tumnus deluxe. So good

Damn...i love that SG

So I take it the editor finally got that well deserved raise?

Love my oxblood. You can get such a wide range of sounds out of it from an absolutely killer boost through to a fuzz. I always find the tone control needs to be at around 2/3 of the way around as a starting point as it can get a bit wooly below that as demonstrated here (I guess this depends a lot on the amp etc though)

Oxblood was the best for me - doesn't sound like a Klon though. Out of the Klones, the KTR and the Ryra were my favourites.

The RYRA orOxblood for me, killer tones! Had a soul food once, didn't like it. I feel the same now. (Gave it to a mate who is making better sounds with it than I ever did though, so it was probably me.)

I wish Pete and Rabea had reviewed these pedals .. Their tone and style of playing is more resonant with mine.

I would have added the Soul Food Bass, in my opinion its even better for guitar than it is for bass.

MXR Sugar Drive deserves to be in this! I demand you do it again!

Chappers' favourite riff is "just got paid" by ZZ Top! Plays it almost every time) Great tune and superb band by the way!!!)))

What a beautiful sg.

I have a Voyager and I must say that it works way better as more of a clean boost, which is what I think it’s designed for anyways. It has a great musical top end, and great mid push.

I use an OxBlood it’s an awesome amazing sounding pedal I love it

SG my fovorite guitar finally used

That SG sounds beauteous.

Keep'em comin' Captain!

Nice one, lads! I do respect Chappers' ear.

Apparently when Chappers called the Oxblood out as what he thought was the Mythos Klon, he had forgotten that the Captain told him that there were a couple of switches on the Oxblood. That was almost a dead give away for Oxblood or a JHS Custom Shop Mod of an EHX Soul Food. The KTR is Finnegan's remake of the original, glad it got the highest score. I think the Tumnus would need to be re-evaluated, because it was the first, there was nothing to really compare it to, although at a certain point that frame of reference is lost over 40 minutes with 10 Klons. I've listened to so many Klons to try to figure out which one I wanted recently, I can understand being Kloned out. Of the 3 at the very end, I liked the KTR myself, I thought the Oxblood was 2nd best of those 3 and the Tumnus a close 3rd. Every review & even Wampler himself, says the Tumnus is Wampler's own personal spin on a Klon, Wampler says he doesn't like to make a 1:1 clone copy, tends to add or deduct what he likes or dislikes from a clone to make it a Wampler pedal. FWIW, I heard enough in a Mosky Silver Horse review to go with a sub $ 30 Klon clone. That one has a soft & hard clipping switch, so it's probably would score somewhere in the range of any of these pedals. Would be interesting to revisit this and throw the Mosky Silver or Golden Horse into the mix. I don't think it would be as bad a score as the Walrus did, and easily as good as the Bad Horse ?

40:52 "Oop, catch..." So smooth!
