A few months ago, Athens, Georgia-based Greer Amps released its newest stompbox, the Moonshot. The Moonshot is a treble and mid pre/boost pedal that takes its inspiration from vintage germanium preamp circuits.
The Moonshot might look unassuming, featuring just two knobs for master volume and treble/mid sweep, but don't let its minimalist face fool you. A twist of the treble/mid knob to the left will get you a solid treble boost, while a twist to the right will drive the front end of your amp and give you some midrange grunt.
Under the hood, the Moonshot sports a new-old-stock AC-128 germanium transistor that lends itself to warm and rich tones. The pedal also plays nicely with others and can beef up any other ODs you've got in your chain.
