The TC Electronic MojoMojo Overdrive is an analog pedal designed to provide an open, amp-like overdrive with high headroom and a natural, dynamic response.It is frequently described as having a "glassy" vintage tweed character rather than the mid-focused "hump" found in traditional Tube Screamer-style pedals.
Key Features and Design
High Headroom: The pedal uses a special circuit that ramps up the internal voltage to 3–4 times that of typical drive pedals.This is used to increase dynamics and clarity rather than just adding more distortion.
Active 2-Band EQ: Unlike many overdrive pedals that use a single "Tone" knob, the MojoMojo features dedicated Bass and Treble knobs, allowing you to boost or cut frequencies independently.
Voicing Switch: A small toggle switch shifts the character of the pedal.One setting provides a natural overdrive, while the other "backs off" the bass slightly to prevent the sound from becoming too "muddy" or "dark," particularly with humbuckers.
True Bypass: Ensures zero signal loss or coloration when the pedal is disengaged.
Road-Ready Build: It features a sturdy die-cast metal casing and a unique one-screw battery compartment that can be opened with a coin or pick.
