  Tied With:
  Boss SD-1

Gearank Recommendation

The MojoMojo appeared on our recommended list for Overdrive Pedals Under $50 from January 2018 until August 2021 when it was removed due to its price being increased above $50.

Overview

The TC Electronic MojoMojo is a part of TC Electronics analog line. Its defining feature is that it has an active bass and treble EQ, which means that you can both cut and boost treble and bass frequencies.

This is a really powerful tone sculpting tool, and is also a huge bonus if you’re looking for a really specific tone (like Eric Clapton’s “Woman” tone).

A bonus of this pedal is that it also comes with a “voice” switch, which allows you to either cut the low-end or boost it. It’s a great way to quickly change the tone of the pedal if you’re switching between different guitars, especially if you’re switching back and forth between humbucker and single-coil instruments.

If virtuosos like Paul Gilbert approve of this pedal, then it’s highly probably that you’ll end up liking it.
