tulk1 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 Just picked up a Mooer Hustle Drive. No idea why. Maybe 'cause it's so cute!!! It's no larger than the Grace compressor I bought a few weeks ago. Tiny thing! I suppose I can find somewhere to stuff it in on the board. The Hustle Drive is supposed to be a take off on the OCD. Side by side with as close to the same settings as I could manage I'd say it's close. Maybe just a bit more high end. Taking it out Friday nite. That will be the real test. And if it's a no-go, then it can sit here at home with the other ODs I no longer use. Anyway, here's a stock picture of it. Mooer makes a whole line of these tiny things.
schundog Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 DANG, that IS little! I really dig my OCD. I hope this meets your expectations. Please let us know!
cobrafast1 Posted October 24, 2013 Posted October 24, 2013 I'm anxious to hear how you like it. Can we get an audio sample or a YouTube review? Nice looking little box.

H Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 www.youtube.com/watch?v=n343iqdt0_w Apologies - seems my links are not embedding the player - that is the link for a Prymaxe Vintage review of the pedal, using a 150 amongst other guitars.
Billgelder Posted October 25, 2013 Posted October 25, 2013 Sorry, I have been under the weather the last 3 days.here is the review.

t0aj15 Posted November 4, 2013 Posted November 4, 2013 Got one last week and I must say I'm not a fan of most dirt pedals, but in front of my Fender SS100 set on the Bassman setting this thing really sounds great. It's very rich and natural sounding and the size is a big plus. This one gets two thumbs up from me.
tulk1 Posted November 4, 2013 Author Posted November 4, 2013 Bit of a confession here ... I haven't used mine yet! The pedalboard stays in the trailer. And the last few gigs, since getting the pedal, I've been too busy doing other things during setup to swap it out. I need to just do it and use it!

I've had the same problem lately, got a dead stomp on the board and haven't dug the board out to fix or swap it, and the trailer stays parked at my house!
JeffB Posted November 5, 2013 Posted November 5, 2013 Thanks Jeff. Love you, too!! .................... Sorry. I had been watching Harold Lloyd videos at 1:30am. Its like cat nip for me.
tulk1 Posted November 17, 2013 Author Posted November 17, 2013 Alrighty, then. I finally put the little sucker on the board last night. Interesting fellow that it is. Way more gain and volume on tap than I'm used to. Actually had a hard time getting it to fit into my vision of what I want in an OD. Even set as just a vol boost it was way louder than my other OD pedals. Good tone, got to say that. And at times I wish I could play at those volumes. But this little sucker is just too hot for me. It'll be either moving to a new home, or making residence in the pedal box along with a few others. If anyone (in the US 48) would like to try this pedal, just for grins, I'd be happy to ship it to you to try. Seriously. I like the size, I like the idea. It's just too hot for me. Come to think of it, that is one reason I pulled the OCD. I couldn't get it to play at the same levels as my other pedals. Hmmmm.
big bob Posted November 17, 2013 Posted November 17, 2013 Hey Kenny, that boosta grande pedal I got from you that just would not work with my Marshall DSL, works like a charm with the Carr. go figure.

I've been using a Fulldrive 2 for a long time and the "3" was just too sensitive to adjust. The volume went from "just enough" to way too much by just touching the knob. Same thing with the gain knob. I bought it and sold it in the same week.
