The morning is almost over, so it's time to wrap up this instalment of #CoffeeAndKlon.

The #PRS #Horsemeat is not a #Klon killer for me. It's not going to kick my #KTR off my board.

It's a *great* sounding #TweedTone pedal - right up there with my beloved #SHOD.

It gives me another option when I want tweed tone - and I *love* having options.

Even though PRS have marketed the #Horsemeat as a #Klon killer, they've always been clear that it isn't based on the Klon circuit.

And that leads me onto the second - and final - part of today's #CoffeeAndKlon ...

... and the other reason I've got the #SHOD on my board for this ๐Ÿ™‚

So now we get onto the main topic for this instalment of #CoffeeAndKlon: is the #PRS #Horsemeat the Klon-killer that it's been marketed to be?

In my rig, that translates to: can the Horsemeat replace my Klon KTR in the clean-boost role?

Let me go and fiddle some knobs and find out! I'll be right back ๐Ÿ™‚

For #guitar, I'm mostly going to use Smokey: my 2012 Gibson #LesPaul Classic Plus.

This model is the one with the baked maple fretboard, because the US Government had seized all of Gibson's rosewood at the time.

It's got a set of OX4 Hot Duane humbuckers, giving it a nice amount of punch and power.

Plus, just look at those mineral streaks ๐Ÿ˜

This is close-up of Smokey, my Gibson Les Paul of choice today.

In the top-left corner, we have the bridge humbucker. It is uncovered, revealing the black bobbins and artificially-aged screw pole pieces.

In the bottom right, we have the two tone, two volume controls that are crucial to why a Les Paul is good at what it does.

Good morning, everyone!

This morning - as previously promised - I'm going to do my first live #CoffeeAndKlon on here.

Today, I'm going to be talking about my favourite overdrive pedal: the #PRS #Horsemeat.

PRS have marketed this as a #Klon killer. Why has it become my favourite pedal, and can it replace the Klon #KTR on my board?

Sadly, there seem to be no people within my observable fediverse who are talking about the #Klon ๐Ÿ™

I guess I need to try and help with that on Sunday, with a live #CoffeeAndKlon thread. Donโ€™t think Iโ€™ve done one of those yet this year? I canโ€™t remember.

Topic will be the #PRS #Horsemeat pedal. Spoiler alert: great great pedal, but not replacing the Klon on my board.

Afterwards, Iโ€™ll repost it on the #HomeToneBlog with audio samples.
