Yes, it's a great pedal and has yet to be de-thrown as king of clean boosts. As for sound clips, at the moment I'm at a loss...but there are some out there. Clean Boost: A device to increase the volume level of a guitar before an amplification device, thus increasing the volume of the amplifier and clipping the input of the amplifier, but not creating any clipping of it's own Seriously, the TS9(stock) is not a very good example of a clean boost IMHO. There is still some residual mid hump and compression even with the gain all the way down. I've heard the Analogman TS9 Silver comes closer to being more transparent than a stock one when being used as a clean boost.

Yes, is is the shizzle. You will really like what it does for the 335 with the JR. As a clean boost it will take you thru a wide range of the best clean/punchy/sustain blues tones. Crank the gain on the KLON and crank the Vol on the JR to around 3:00 and you get Wheels of Fire Marshall wail/woman tone.
KLON, resistance is futile.

I have a Klon, and so far I've never found an amp it doesn't like. it's my main "more" pedal, and my Maz18 works great with it. My kids will inherit it!

I have one, but I do not have a Maz Jr. It does sound great with my Z28.
Nice board zekmoe !!!

I've been trying to find or order a Klon for a couple of weeks now. Any suggestions besides e-bay were to look.

I've had a Klon for about 6 years now and many other overdrive pedals, of all the pedals Klon just has none of that splattery overdrive fade out and is probably the most amplike of all that I tried. You may not like the midrangey boost of the drive on Klon but it will get you heard through the mix when playing out with a full band. As a clean boost it's top notch, and it works well with a MAZ18, the fact that I still have it after 6 years is testimony to the sound quality of the pedal, it is expensive, I'll agree with that and it's no swiss army knife do all end all pedal either but it will make a MAZ 18 sing in a good way.
