Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement. Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.38% — somewhat different

The Mooer Micro Preamp 002 UK Gold 900 models the Marshall JCM900, the early-90s hot-rodded Marshall that pushed the JCM800 formula into higher, more compressed gain for the rock and metal of its era. Sold earlier as the British Gold 900 before Mooer's series-wide rename.
The Mooer Micro Preamp 015 Brown Sound models the original Peavey 5150, the first Van Halen signature head and the amp that became a rhythm-guitar standard for its dense, saturated gain and hard-edged attack. The 005 covers the later EVH 5150 III instead.
