Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.36% — somewhat different

Description
The Mooer Micro Preamp 016 Phoenix is voiced after the Engl Fireball 100, a German high-gain head built for percussive, tightly-tracking metal rhythm with minimal low-end bloom.
The Mooer Micro Preamp 012 US Gold 100 is voiced after the Friedman Brown Eye 100, Dave Friedman's hot-rodded Marshall built for a thick, mid-rich crunch with far tighter response than a stock plexi. Sold earlier as the Fried Mien before Mooer's rename.
