Boost
Key facts
TypeOverdrive/boost1
MakerMosky1
CircuitBased on the Klon2

The MOSKY Silver Horse is a compact overdrive and boost pedal from Mosky. Mosky lists its type as overdrive/boost, and the circuit is based on the Klon, the design behind the well-known Klon Centaur transparent overdrive12. That makes it one of the many Klon-style pedals on the market, and Tone Island's Adam Connell called it "the cheapest Klon style pedal around"3.

What it does

As an overdrive/boost pedal, the Silver Horse sits in the same category as other boost pedals and overdrive pedals: it pushes the front of your amp harder for more grit and level. Its Klon-based circuit places it among the clones of the Centaur, a circuit players associate with transparent overdrive, meaning it aims to add gain without heavily coloring the base tone of the guitar and amp12.

Tone Island reviewed it in a buying guide to Klon Centaur clones. Connell's verdict was measured3:

"the pots & jack sockets don't feel like they're particularly great quality. That's to be expected for the money."
Adam Connell, Tone Island3

Overall he found the pedal wasn't terrible but didn't blow his mind, a fair summary of where the cheapest option in a crowded field of Klon clones lands3.
