![]() He was overwhelmed by demand and worked long hours in his home, building, testing, and shipping the pedals himself. Releaseįinnegan launched the Klon Centaur in late 1994. He coated the components in epoxy resin to make the pedal harder to replicate. After extensive experimentation, he selected germanium diodes for the circuit and purchased as many as he could afford. ![]() With electrical engineer friends, including the MIT graduate Fred Fenning, Finnegan developed prototype pedals in his spare time over four and a half years. He experimented with the Ibanez Tube Screamer, but was not satisfied. He wanted a "big, open" sound, with a "hint of tube clipping", that would not sound like a pedal was being used. In the 1990s, the American engineer Bill Finnegan sought an overdrive pedal that would recreate the harmonically rich distortion of a guitar amplifier at a high volume.
