PogoLab OVER DRIVE
$18.00 USD Ten years ago I paid 30% more for a Mooer pedal because it came in a different color and graphics with another companies name. Then add to that I found the same Mooer pedal for a 3rd of the price less with another brands name. I instantly leant to inspect a mini pedal from pictures like Sherlock Holmes. The first thing to look for is where everything on the outside had hole in the pedal to put a pot, switch or jack in. To get to the point this is not Mooers 31st company to make them re-branded pedals. It is not a Mooer or a Mosky or a Moen or a NUX or a Movall. My instant shock when I saw the pedal is that nobody puts a mini toggle like they have under the LED inline with the footswitch, LOL. I shock easy, LOL. I traced them down to the Distributor looks to be Lakato.
The pedal is a low to medium gain OD with a bit of a BluesBreaker like sound. it is very clear and near transparent. It has the usual layout of Vole, Gain and Tone but the toggle is a bright switch.

CONCLUSION__
They could be a new company. There are a lot of very small companies that just sell locally or no further than neighboring countries. Lekato could have picked up the brand.It sounds very good. it is not overly noisy, or muddy or lacks output or is built flimsy. You could argue it lacks some character or even a loveable foible like a Tube Screamer upper mid hump, lol. One could expect a fair price but we are getting a blowout price. Hell it even looks upmarket and understated like a nice old vintage MXR, or Ross etc.

Could you help me find a rebranded Mooer yellow comp?
ReplyDeleteWhen I reviewed the pedal I spent hours looking for a clone. I have never seen one in the 10 years that Mooer have sold it. Mooer do not offer re-brands on pedals until they are poor sellers. Some discontinued Mooer pedals are still made but only as a re-brand. The best price for the Mooer Yellow is the Wireless Music Lover Store on AliExpress. Once you add in shipping it is $40.09 USD.
ReplyDeleteOK. Thank you so much!
