So you need a vacuum cleaner and you go to the local Sears Dept. Store...and there sits a nice HOOVER vacuum cleaner $200...beside it is a Sears KENMORE vacuum cleaner... it appears to be the same..except it is a different colour and it is only $125...
IT IS THE SAME !!!
IT IS THE SAME !!!

AMMOON MUSIC ...THE AMMOON STORE
The Ammoon store is on Ali Express. They sell Ammoon pedals including the rebranded Joyo Nano pedals. The rebrand does not have the little plexi cover on it. I find this gives it a very cool look.
These pedals have a foot print the size of a pack of gum. We are talking true nano size!!!
They look cool sound impressive and are as cheap as $22.00 USD. They also have Mosky pedals at under $30.00 USD.
They sell a Mosky serious power supply for $32.00 USD....these have been rebranded many times by Joyo. They have isolated outputs with seven 100 mili V....one 300....,one 12V and one 18V.
These are the ones to buy....they are quality units.

THE REBRANDED MOOER...
Some rebrands have just the favourites....some have this and a few others that Mooer finds are not popular and slow sellers...some have a few specialized ones. Fender only sells the problem fixer pedals like an EQ, compressor, ABY box and a DI.
They come in 3 different casings...one that is the same as Mooer but painted and decorated differently...one that uses the Mooer Tuner casing...or one made of brushed aluminum either plain or partially painted. Anything that has to extrude thru the casing is in exactly the same place...so the same guts fits in them all. If you find a brand that uses a similar case but have either the DC jack or LED in a different spot... then you can be sure that it is NOT a Mooer rebrand. For example Mighty Sound pedals at first glance look like Mooer but are not.
The names help you match them up.... the Rumble Drive is the Dumbler. Rumble/ Dumble..LOL ....or labels on the pots and switches are the same...level written on the right of one is still on the right of the other but called volume...on another pedal etc. One small difference is that the Mooer has a bigger screen on the Mooer tuner...the others have a small screen. Mooer dropped the old 'Dyna Comp' clone a few months ago for a new one....so now the old compressor shows up in the clones. Both the tuner and comp are just a recycle of old designs.
Not long ago Mooer rebrands bought under the Donner name had the best price at around $32 and up then along came Tom'sline at $28 now it's Rowan $22 and up.
Regular size Joyo pedals make it easy...the rebrands use the same names and are in the same colors...only the print style and the the 'brand' name is changed.
Joyo also rebrand the Ironman nano pedals. The clear plastic canopy is gone. and the rotary switches become good old toggles. But it is not hard to tell because no one else sells cheap nano size pedals anyway.
RIGHT NOW>> the best deal has the Ammoon name on it....made by Joyo these pedals in general are excellent clones..both in sound and quality of build. They are also the cheapest!!!
SO IN SHORT>>>AMMOON ..has .the cheapest price period...IF THAT CHANGES I WILL LET YOU KNOW ...most Joyo made pedals are so good they could stay on your pedal board for years.

WHERE TO BUY CHEAP
places to start...
Most guitarists know that Amazon and Ebay are a great place to look. Then come a few American based cheap pedal sites.REVERB is there ...but a long shot
SO...
SO...
THE BEST PLACE TO START IS.....AliExpress
AliExpress
.. a Chinese version of Amazon...
It does Billions in sales....think of it this way ...if....AliExpress is Walmart....Amazon is a local
dollar store owned by your Mom and Dad. AliExpress is really that much bigger!
...shipping is usually free...wait times are very slow...often 6 to 8 weeks...but after sale service is good because the stores are terrified of getting kicked off because the customer base is actually over ONE BILLION people....did I say it was ONE BILLION? LOL
As you read this Yahoo are looking for a buyer...they own 23% of AliExpress and want more stock because this site keeps growing and soon the share price will skyrocket.
I bought a $60.00 guitar bridge for $9,95....same bridge....and the shipping was free
I got a very passable Fender Tele clone complete with the Fender decal on the headstock. $180.00 USD with free shipping.
THEY ARE NOT!
This is an important site for 2 reasons. First even Aliexpress will have 'Stores' that sell at these prices or close to them and you know to skip past them on your searches. This site gives you a starting point. Secondly stores use this site for trade ins. The store can quickly give you the value 'they will give you on a trade'...and then have that price to use to work out their resale value.
If running a Kijiji ad or similar...it gives you something to find what price you can ask for. If you buy right...pricing your pedal to get your money back can be surprisingly easy.
NEW BRAND>>>CHEAP PRICES.....all at around $25.00 USD

MIGHTY SOUND
Mighty sound are the new kid on the block. They are made by Cherry Music a Chinese company but the product is designed in the U.S.
At first glance they look like they are a re-branded Mooer....but the casing is different . The pedal is the same size but the corners on the top although curved like the Mooer ...are flat. The DC jack is off center where as the Mooer is dead center. The general build and attention to detail with the art work makes it look like a little gourmet pedal.I have the analog delay it won a 'best 5 delay pedal' award. It really is superb.The main point is that this is quality stuff. The prices right now are all under $50.00 USD. they often get down to as cheap as $23.00 NOT BAD!!!My delay is a keeper! It will not get bumped with my rocket shift to gourmet pedals.
Their new Flanger is a keeper.

ReplyDeleteI would check ebay for the desired pedal, first. The reason is that AliExpress and CheaperPedals can be more expensive by about $20 per pedal. CP also charges shipping for small orders. I use Joyo and have replaced my big brandname pedals as they wore out. The savings is very noticeable. The simple truth is that most name brand pedals are made it China, Viet Nam, etc some in the same factory.
