OVERDRIVE- NRG EFFECTS Purrer-Mini ...is it the killer it's Dad is???

NRG EFFECTS PURRER-MINI

$230.00 USD

If you are new to NRG I am not surprised as it has been for years totally under the radar. Word of mouth from guys that often own things like a King of Tone or an original Tonebender etc. buy them.

I reviewed the full size Purrer last December and was damn impressed. All the NRG are hand wire point to point. Nothing is more difficult or time consuming. The best of these pedals have exquisite detail in the harmonics of the sound. Add a creative builder with an 'ear' for that just right sound and one is instantly won over. All this particularly comes across in what we refer to in general as transparent OD's. Some of the best of these are not so transparent that they don't stamp on definite beautiful coloration to your sound. This pedal does. Actually you can push it into some quite high gain without killing it's soul. At low and medium gains it has no equal in a world of guys using a Tube Screamer to cover it's territory.

CONCLUSION

There are 2 things missing from the big one.

It's $400.00 USD price and it's bass. 

Fortunately you can pull off the base of the pedal 

and tweak back the bass with its trimmer pot.

 <<<Start at 45:00 

the fine print 

I simply have to keep my pedal count down to seventy-two pedals. 

Seventy-three is at my Post Office and seventy-four  is at Customs, LOL

So until I find out what 2 pedals will go I can not even think 

about the NRG Gurrer  ...(pun intended)

😠 ...Damn!
