The Black Secret is budget stompbox maker Mooer’s take on the ProCo Rat, one of the most highly acclaimed and sought-after distortion guitar effects pedals of all time. It doesn’t just recreate the Rat’s legendary tone, though; it one-ups it. You get two modes accessible via a flip switch: Vintage mode is the Rat’s classic, crisp tone while Turbo mode features the TurboRat’s higher gain level and extra character. The Black Secret is basically two distortion pedals in one at a size and price that’s hard to beat.

The TightDrive JR was born out of the demand for tinier footprint versions of Amptweaker’s well-loved distortion pedals. It ranges from moderately high gain to clean boost and features a Tight attack switch and noise gate. Derived from Amptweaker’s Pro series, the Fat switches and Tight control have been reconfigured into a three-position Fat/Normal/Tight switch to adjust your guitar’s attack. The TightDrive JR has a manually-adjustable Noise Gate, EQ switch that offers Plexi/Normal/Smooth tone settings, as well as Volume, Tone, and Gain knobs.
The Amptweaker TightFuzz Distortion Effect Pedal is sure to incorporate some vintage flavor to your arsenal. Unlike most vintage fuzz boxes with limited controls, the TightFuzz features a Tone control that tames fuzzy edges and Tight control that varies the pick attack from thick and smooth to aggressive and tight. That is especially helpful for tweaking your fuzz tone as some tend to be very flubby on the low end. While most modern fuzz boxes decided to make excessive fuzz tone, Amptweaker chose to create something with several flexible yet usable tones.
The Plexi-M is a ‘60s Marshall plexi amp in stompbox form that lets you go from a warm, mild overdrive to a crunchy distortion reminiscent of a heavily cranked plexi. You can twist the Tone knob clockwise for a brighter and brighter sound and crank up the Gain knob for all the distortion you could ever want. The Plexi-M comes with true bypass and has a 100% analog signal path. This is quite possibly the cheapest reliable plexi distortion pedal you’ll ever find anywhere.
The Blackstar LT Dist pedal lets you add some high-gain distortion to your rig. This compact, pedalboard-friendly distortion pedal gives you everything from crystal clean to boost to loud lead tones. It boasts Blackstar’s famous Infinite Shape Feature (ISF) tone-shaping circuit, providing you infinite adjustment over the tone control’s characteristics. The Blackstar LT Dist provides American and British distortion flavors and anything in between. Its control panel consists of ISF, TONE, LEVEL, and GAIN.
The Bogner Burnley distortion pedal gives your pedalboard Bogner-designed tones. Leveraging a Rupert Neve transformer, the Burnley delivers high-quality sound, lush tone, and killer touch sensitivity. You can get British high-gain tones or mild distortion to drive your amp into tonal bliss. The TONE knob allows you to tweak your sound to perfection while the FAT/TIGHT switch lets you adjust the pedal’s vibe from a looser rock feel to tighter metal. The 100% analog circuit path allows for excellent touch response.
