Jim Dunlop M133 MXR Micro Amp Pedal, White

Product Information

It's hiding on the back of the board - that's one way to keep the PCB down to a 1590A-friendly size. As a result, the MXR Micro Amp Plus is the sort of tool that should probably live in every serious electric guitarist’s toolkit.

The very different frequency responses on bolts with single versus gibbies with buckers means the perceived level may never really match up, but if you're just trying to get them to tickle V1 in your amp similarly it may help. A secondary function, per the manufacturer, is to slam the front end of a tube amplifier with extra volume to create even more saturated gain sounds than an amp is capable of producing on its own.Knob is large and with the Dunlop rubber tyre it makes it very easy to adjust with your feet while playing.

So to summarise, having owned the pedal for 8 years, it is an excellent piece of gear for anyone wanting a boost. The kit itself is of superb quality and the instructions are just what you want - they tell you what to do without holding your hand.Thirdly, the new design also greatly reduces the background noise to far below that which was exhibited by the original as well (to -87db). This neat little box, which is surprisingly heavy for its size, provides a flexible amount of volume/gain suitable for overdriving an amp or just boosting clean volume.
