Ceriatone joins Game of Klones (Now it's called Centura)

I really like the gold though! Very cool

 

CP30 gold... Just in time for the new movie... Clearly a joint venture with Disney... Ceriatone is blowing up!

 

Oh my. That GOLD really looks delicious!! I think I still have to wait for half a year to get ! Just signed up last July!

 

Like The Death Star?

 

I actually preferred the original, non-shiny version which Nik was able to provide...at least while he still had some left a few weeks ago.

 

I am in the same camp. I have the original matte finish non horsie, and really dig the look over the newer ones. That said it’s all subjective and am glad folks dig the new ones too.

Funny I thought both size and circuit were going to keep the Centura off my board (had another Klone that I loved with my Fender amps but not so much with my new Maz 18), but I was really surprised with how well the Centura worked with my rig as a clean boost (not for volume but just “more” of my tone). I really love it now as a base tone and found a way to reorg my board to make room. Looks pretty smart I think.

 

The Centura is massive. An appropriate nickname for it is the Toaster.... the ML Jr and Flint aren't that big. I'm thinking of going down to whatever the next size down of Pedaltrain is below the Jr and could fit the Tumnus, KOT, ML Jr and Flint on there and need nothing else.

 

Ohhh didn’t see this posted. Very nice indeed!

 

What about this two?

Centaur vs Centura

 

Heard on every of these as a clean boost with a KOT on top...yowzers- it kinda tripped me up as a guy with a quality handmade guitar and amp to hear this guy's extremely average (nothing wrong with it at all sorry if I sound snobby) guitar and amp sound pretty amazing with those 2 boxes.

 

Your profile pic simultaneously repulses me and cracks me up

 

Pictures don't have the same angle, but I see your point

 

The Klon circuit has value-added design elements over its predecessors. It's not a DOD clone, for crying out loud. And if you think it's similar to a Distortion+, well, just...wow. The clones do not. I'm not trying to convince people to agree with me about what should be valued and not -- I'm just stating one viewpoint! If you want to buy a cheaper copy, buy a cheaper copy! Someone asked a good question about selling used stuff. My opinion is that the maker collects value on the first sale, and then the object belongs to they purchaser to resell at will. Again, just an opinion.

 

I think Steve would consent. To both the DIY jab at his "fame" and your sentiment.

 

you can now buy just the assembled guts for the Centura without the actual enclosure

apparently it is available immediately, without the year long wait.

It is supposed to fit into any Chinese KLONE 1:1 enclosure

Now it's time to find some 1:1 KLONE enclosures on Aliexpress

 

I'm working on my second Centura...

This one has the variations from the '2207' Silver Horsie. I have an eBay enclosure and all the guts from Ceriatone.

 

I just got new enclosures from Nik. I really dig this new shape, gold looks awesome! Kudos to Ceriatone:

Looks great.

I'm doing the same thing, except I ordered the Pre-assembled guts and only have to screw everything into the Aliexpress enclosure.

My gold Aliexpress enclosure looks ten times better than my silver one.

But Nik's new shiny ones look great.

 

How’s the manticore sounded when comparing to the Centura?
