I'm building a Mooer pedalboard!
So far: "Micro Looper", "Reecho", "Pure Boost" and this time . . the "Blues Mood".
(Today ordered the last three of my board - "Slow Engine", "Funky Monkey" and "Sky Verb".) PS: I have the "Micro Power Supply too"
Why Mooer?
Over many years I've own a host of pedals from many different manufacturers. Great ones, awful ones. Yet value for money and quality of effects, I really rate the Mooer range.
The Mooer "Blues Mood" is not a boost-only nor is it a distortion. Hovering somewhere between the two and erring on the boost+valve amp being driven, it's just perfect for the name it's been given.
Controls feature a central "Gain" control, tone and pedal volume output, along with a "Bright and Fat" toggle. This gives a subtle midrange boost "Fat", which beefs up a single coil pickup nicely. The "Bright", accentuates the upper end with an added "cleanliness".
Like my other Mooer pedals neither of these sounds is either woolly or scratchy.
It's capable of some serious sweet spots and gives a quality of sustain like a valve amp being comfortable driven towards distortion. Back off the volume and it cleans up nicely.
Using a Strat' I can get some classic 'tweed' sounds, along with the more modern 'american-amp' blues clarity! Love it!
PS: If you are running a boost pedal - as I am - to give an enhanced signal to my straight guitar sound to start with, you'll find that placing this before the boost, as is often recommended, really does work the best.
As an avid purchaser from Thomann, I'd like to say again thanks for the great team service of Thomann, speedy, goods always arriving safely and their friendly service!
