DS Custom Audio Electronics T.E.O.
DS Custom Audio Electronics T.E.O. A great new pedal that delivers the tone of the original Klon Centaur pedal, but with some excellent new features.
DS Custom Audio Electronics T.E.O. Klon Type Overdrive
T.E.O stands for 'That Expensive Overdrive.' It takes the base principles of the original pedal, but with some nice added features. It's unfair to refer to it as a Klon Clone, as it is as unique in its own way.
The intention is to emulate the basic tone and sound, but giving the players a bit more tweakability. The gain pot is split into two separate pots. On the original unit these gain were stacked, controlling the amount of gain on the one hand, and the mix of clean and overdriven signal on the other. Here you can set both individually and get some nice in between sounds. The blend knob adds more overdriven signal to the mixing OpAmp as you turn the knob clockwise, turning counter-clockwise adds more clean signal.
Another addition is the bass control, which blends in another Cap which leads to more bass hitting the second OpAmp. Please note this only affects the overdriven part of the circuit and thus will be more noticeable the higher the gain control is set. There is also a toggle switch which lends more tone control and in the Mod position add extra bass.
As the original unit, this pedal also features a buffered bypass and uses a standard 9V power supply, however there is a further internal charge circuit that pushes the voltage to 18 Vdc, thus increasing headroom.
