  • Mosky Golden Horse

    Got this pedal bundled together with a Wampler Pinnacle distortion pedal (which is nice). I have to say, this little pedal is really NICE sounding. It is a nice boost and has an "in room" sound, heard to explain, but it sounds like the sound is coming from the ROOM and not the amp... Amazing what they can do for $20-40.

    Anyone else have these sub-$40 pedals?

    Securb loves it I believe. I saw a comparison on Tube and was impressed.

      I just got one a few days ago at the suggestion of someone on the forum, and it is AWESOME, and I don't just mean "for the price"

      It stacks so nicely!

            I use my Klone as my only source of drive into a dead clean amp (a BYOC Silver Pony I built). Very dynamic gain that I would hate if I had one when I first started playing. I don't use much gain, but I like the sustain and the volume knob dynamics.

              What are these "Dynamics" of which you speak? I thought the Volume knob was just a rotary "off" switch???

              Volume Knob Dynamics? VKD? Is that some kind of physics thing or something???

                If you roll your volume knob below 9, your eye makeup immediately starts running

                If you even have a tone knob, the glitter on your Spandex won't shine, and touching it will make your hairspray stop working

                  Dave, you're about to make me start tinkering with DIY pedals, aren't you. AREN'T YOU!!!

                  I'm already broke enough as it is, you monster!

                    Well, I tell people, "If I can do it, anyone can". I've built maybe 5 pedals so far, and all sound great, and probably sound better and are made with better components than pedals twice the price. I've only built BYOC ones, though.

                      BYOC?

                      I just got a Mosky Brown Sound pedal for close to nothing - supposed to be a Wampler Pinnacle copy (which I also have) so I'm gonna A/B test them in a video.

                          Dave, that is very interesting but I don't see the value in those kits. A Phase90 is $70 with the kit and I have to do all that work, or I can buy a used Phase 90 for $75 - $100. Are these heavier-duty components than the original pedals?

                          As a DIYer, I appreciate the fun in doing a kit, but that looks like a LOT of soldering!

                            I bought a Tone City Bad Horse from a forum bro here and it's the best $30 I've spent on a pedal. Great tone, dynamics and response all across the gain spectrum. Sounds much better than many pedals I've tried in the over $100 range.

                              I am big on DIY. I was just about to order a BYOC kit when i stumbled across a guy on Etsy who builds pedals for the same or less (including shipping) than it costs to build a kit. FrankTheAnvil FX. I have had him build me 5 or 6 pedals over the past couple years and they were all awesome! If you message him through Etsy he will build just about anything for you, not just the "standard" models he lists in his store. Quick, too: not unusual to have the pedal in hand a week after first contact!
                              Certainly altered the cost/benefit ratio for me!
