Acetone Mojo Work King (MWK-01) 2025 - New

Unleash raw, uncompressed power with the Mojo Work King, an overdrive pedal that bridges the gap between transparent boost and full-blown distortion. This isn’t a polite, amp-like overdrive; it’s a bold, aggressive circuit that adds its own distinct character while maintaining exceptional clarity and punch across the entire frequency spectrum.

The Mojo Work King’s defining trait is its open, dynamic response that refuses to squash your playing into submission. Unlike heavily compressed overdrives, this pedal preserves your attack and lets every note breathe with natural sustain and harmonic richness. The result is a thick, full-bodied drive tone with substantial low-end grunt, present midrange bark, and sparkling treble that cuts through without harshness.

The straightforward control layout: Drive, Tone, and Volume, offers deceptive range. At lower gain settings, you’ll find chunky rhythm tones with excellent string separation perfect for complex chord voicings. Crank the Drive and you’re in high-gain territory with singing sustain and a firm, articulate edge that works equally well for crunchy power chords or scorching lead lines.

An internal voice switch lets you toggle between tighter, more focused drive or a looser, more open character with enhanced bass response, effectively giving you two distinct pedals in one enclosure. The wide-ranging Tone control sculpts everything from dark, smooth liquidity to bright, cutting aggression.

The Mojo Work King excels at pushing already-overdriven amps into higher gain territory while maintaining definition, but it’s equally impressive running into clean amps where its robust, amp-independent voice truly shines.

Perfect for: Blues, rock, hard rock, blues rock, alternative, and any player demanding bold, dynamic overdrive with serious attitude.
