OD's- EARTHQUAKER Plume Jr. & Plume Jr. MOSFET___NEW___Tube Screamer clones?

EarthQuaker Devices 
Plumes Jr. & Plumes Jr. MOSFET  
$130.00 USD
They say it is not a Tube Screamer but a famous green pedal, WTF!! All brands love to re-invent the Tube Screamer. because the ts is the biggest selling pedal of all time. Even a crap one will be a big seller. It is usually the biggest seller for any brand. The original was not bought for an OD but for 
a booster with a mid poke at 723.4 Hz. If that is what you want buy an Ibanez TS9. King of the poke!!! 
CONCLUSION ___
All of the many Plumes over the last 7 years are really part of the family of medium Gain OD's. and not ts pedals. They actually sound very good except they are thin sounding. The new Mini's added a Bass boost on 
a toggle. For me without it would be a deal breaker. 
In short I can recommend this pedal as very good 
sounding Mid Gain OD. The MOSFET model sounds 
more Tube like but the standard will have more bite.

    I had the original Plumes, marketed as a TS, but I found that even at its lowest gain setting, it still had WAY TOO MUCH GAIN! Love the blog! -Garry
