Overview

Mosky packs three knobs for volume, gain and tone into this compact Golden Horse overdrive, with an analog signal path and a gold finish. A DC power jack feeds it, and quarter inch jacks carry the audio.

Overdrive and boost voicing with three simple controls lets a player find a tone fast. True bypass leaves the signal untouched when the pedal is off. The lack of a battery option means you must own a suitable power supply.

Who it's for

For a pedalboard builder who needs a compact drive that stays out of the signal path when bypassed. Anyone who wants to run from a battery will need a different pedal.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Three simple knobs
Cons
  • No battery connection
  • Power supply not included
  • Model number is a code string

Performance notes

Turning gain up drives the analog circuit harder into overdrive, while the level knob sets output and tone shapes the treble. True bypass routes the signal around the circuit when the pedal is off.
