From the vendor
The MicroMX is our take on the classic MXR MicroAmp.
Super Small, op-amp clean boost. Flies into a 1590A with so much room for activities!
A booster pedal to give you a little more kick to get that needed overdrive your amp or boost your tone for a solo or simply act as an always-on booster that compliments your amp’s tone.
To quote the original ”
• Adds a preset amount of gain with a single control
• Boost your signal for lead work
• Perfect for switching between guitars with unmatched output
Adding a preset amount of gain with just a single control, the Micro Amp is a great way to boost your signal for lead work or adjust between two different guitars with unmatched output (i.e. humbuckers to single-coils). It can also provide a permanent boost in a long effects chain where signal drop off is a problem.”
One simple control:
LEVEL: Amount of gain / boost
Note: Remember to socket any IC’s and transistors!
