The MOEN MO-OD Overdrive Distortion Pedal offers a smooth, natural analog overdrive similar to a full-up tube amplifier. The effect is incredibly transparent as it responds to individual playing dynamics and lets the true tone of your instrument shine through as smooth, natural overdrive just like a cranked tube amplifier. Great for driving the front end of a guitar amp, solid state or valve!
Although these pedals are designed for electric guitar, their analog design makes them compatible with most other electric instruments, including microphones.
My Moen overdrive pedal came in the mail today securely wrapped and promptly delivered by the helpful staff at Swamp Industries.
I guess when you buy an overdrive pedal for $ 59.00 AUD. you think the chances of you really liking it are slim, and so with this feeling of trepidation I prepared my comparison A/B test with my over $200.00 USD. pedal and the Moen O.D. pedal.
After tweaking the Moen O.D. to the sound of my liking ( much to my pleasant surprise ) I commenced to A/B them, and” Lord have mercy” the Moen pedal kept on winning hands down. This unit just had more depth of tone and transparency due to its low gain qualities not to mention touch sensitivity that gave you that little bit of grunt where needed.
The Moen O.D. is also built to last in a heavy duty metal casing (with a groovy paint job may I add) all this for $59.00 how do they do it? Who cares I’m happy.
Special thanks to Tom at Swamp Ind. for his sound advice (no pun intended) and quick responses……… now it’s time to wake the neighbours .
