-
The Mooer Noise Killer is a surprisingly effective little gate for the price. It’s perfect for players using high-gain amps or pickups who need to tame some unwanted hiss without spending a fortune. It's straightforward, gets the job done, and doesn't color your tone too much when bypassed.
Pros

Micro PreAMP 004 Day Tripper · Mooer
26 for sale on Reverb1 finish at Thomann
The Day Tripper nails that classic British amp vibe – think Vox AC30, but in a tiny package. It's a surprisingly good preamp for the price, especially for players wanting a quick dose of that crunchy, mid-focused tone for recording or adding some grit to a clean amp. Ideal for rhythm guitarists seeking a vintage sound without a huge investment.

The Mooer Pure Octave is a surprisingly capable little box for adding octave textures.

Ideal for funk, modern rock, or anyone needing a subtle octave boost on a budget.
Pros
- Clean octave tones, remarkably free of unwanted artifacts
- Metal enclosure feels surprisingly robust for the price point
- Polyphonic tracking is surprisingly good for a budget-friendly unit

Mooer 002 UK Gold 900 Micro Preamp
Micro PreAMP 002 UK Gold 900 · Mooer
19 for sale on Reverb1 finish at Thomann
This little Mooer is a fun, affordable way to nail that classic UK high-gain amp sound. It's perfect for players wanting a quick dose of aggression, especially those who dig the heavier tones of the 90s. Just be aware it's a preamp only, so you’ll need an amp or powered FRFR to hear it properly.
Pros
- UK high-gain voicing captures a distinct, aggressive 90s Brit amp tone
- Compact size makes it incredibly convenient for pedalboard space
- Solid metal enclosure feels surprisingly robust for its price point
Cons
- Speaker simulation (CAB switch) is a basic emulation, lacks nuance
- Limited to preamp functionality; requires an amp or power amp
-

Pros
- Metal enclosure feels surprisingly robust for the price.
- Three modes offer distinct lo-fi textures, from subtle grit to chaos.
- Compact size makes it pedalboard-friendly.
Cons
- Power adapter not included - a common Mooer cost-cutting measure.
