Walrus Audio Mayflower vs Klon KTR

[omfg51]

Pretty straight forward question, I'm looking for an OD, is there any real comparison between these two? I've had the chance to play a KTR, and was incredibly impressed, but I've never tried a Mayflower and I've got a chance to buy one from a friend for a great price.

Any and all information and opinions are greatly appreciated!!

KTR vs Voyager is probably the more apples to apples comparison. I was not a fan of the Mayflower when I had it. It was one of those drives where the drive sounded like it was placed on top of the clean signal underneath...and not in a good way.

Never played a Voyager. I currently have the Walrus 385 and love it.

Poster above is correct - Voyager is supposedly their take on the Klon circuit. Killer pedal. I had the exact opposite experience with the Mayflower, though - I really dig mine. Of course, these things are so rig-dependent and as always, YMMV ...

I've tried the Tumnus and Arc Effects Klone and they are more boost than drive.
the Mayflower is less "midrange-y" and has lots more gain.
The Mayflower stayed on my board for what I needed.
