Mooer Pure Boost

It is a really useful piece of gear either in a small home studio or on the stage, and it is integrated in a small metal house, which is really useful considering the place issue either in a room or on a pedalboard. The pedal has a Bass and Treble knob by which You can tweak on a wide range in order to achieve the best sound You are after. Even the best sound of the best guitar amps can be improved, thus such a little gain beast can come handy after heavy hours of tweaking without any acceptable result.
The pedal can serve as only a volume boost and also as a tool for altering the overall sound by cranking up the gain control over 12 'o clock.
I basically use it for creating a fat and warm clean guitar sound by adding some bass, decreasing slightly the treble, raising the volume a bit and also just slightly the gain. And it's perfect.
I really can not tell any weakness.

Mooer Pure Boost.
It's a signal boost with both bass & treble EQ boost, central gain control & overall volume control.

Now the reason for my title for this pedal is that using the gain knob at only 9.00 o'clock, with bass & treble and 12.00 o'clock, it gives you an additional boost - if you run a non-valve amp - to your frequencies as if you've just plugged into a valve amp. Gives that American clean presence quality - which I love!

Doesn't mean that it's going to scream, in fact quite the opposite, full up it's gritty/crunchy, but the clarity of tone at a lesser gain is just as if you've bought yourself a valve amp! Turn up the gain & hit the strings hard and you will get a bit of 'bite' but it's cleanliness is lost on a transistor amp - it's more of a dirty crunch.

I run a Roland 40XL Cube but prefer pedals that give me more control. The disadvantage - which is not the pedal itself - is that the Roland amp has no effects loop and will not run its own effects alongside external ones without sounding hideous! So don't expect this to add to your Roland on-board distortion for extra bite.

However with a Strat' I can get some great Tele clean sounds with the treble control wide open - which is a bonus. The bass boost control is very clean, not wooly at all & adds an 'airy' bottom end by the same token the treble is clean & 'fresh', not shrill at all.

Overall this is a great piece of kit, which will open up your amp, whether valve or transistor! When you hit those solos, just stomp for that extra "zing".

As always, excellent no problem delivery from Thomann at a great price - Thanks Again Guys!

It IS a boost, but don?t expect much boost from it.

I placed it before the effects to boost the signal coming from the guitar, but I was disappointed when it messed up the sound coming from the distortion pedals, so I had to switch it off when playing distortion or overdrive.

When played alone with reverb, it gave a little bit of distortion that was acceptable at low volumes and is lost when you crank up the volume on the amp.

When played after the other pedals to boos their signals, it did the job pretty well. Kinda gives you a top boost for your distortion if you ever needed it. It also boosts the reverb signal so watch out for that as well.

As mentioned, I wasn?t happy with it, but I could put it to some use.
