Mooer Micro Preamp 004 Day Tripper

Mooer · pedal

The Mooer Micro Preamp 004 Day Tripper takes its voicing from the Vox AC30, the class-A EL84 combo behind the British Invasion's chime and its thick, compressed top-end crunch when pushed. The clean channel keeps the AC30's characteristic sparkle rather than a flat modern clean.
