These are using some top-quality components, including Neutrik jacks and Van Damme cable and are hand-assembled and tested in the UK. After having off-the-shelf cables for years and suffering failures again and again, I bought some Practical Patch cables and have been happier than ever with them. They also don’t cost you the Earth, which some other hand made cable companies seem to do. If you want to find out more, head over to www.practicalpatch.co.uk to see what they have to offer.

Which is your favorite? Look to the community tab for the official poll 👍
This is exactly how demo should be done. I hate the talking takes longer than demonstration itself. Bravo!
That's the way we do things here for the most part. Cheers for the kind words 👍
The thing I took away from this, is how much I appreciate the composition of the screen. Bravo.
The thing that I take away from this video, is how much I appreciate the screen composition & colour choice.
That is quite the compliment from a chap in your field. Thank you for the kind words 👍
@@BudgetPedalChap art director approved 😅🤟
I feel like the Paul Gilbert Mojo Mojo fixed all the issues that I had with the original Mojo Mojo. The original one wasn't bad, but it feel a little lack luster and felt like it did a lot of things good but not great. The Paul Gilbert edition really seemed to fix that issue and focused more on the higher gain stuff than the huge wide sweep that the original tried to do.
I loved the original, still do. It sure is a different beast than the original though. I can justify owning both 🤣🤣🤣
They are similar yet different. The switch should change between the old one and PG version set to 11. But its a marketing decision (wise one) and now i have to buy the brown one too 😊
Everyone needs to own one of the originals at least once. They are a great overdrive and are so damn cheap 👍
Mojomojo is darker tones which I like. Paul Gilbert is brighter yes but depends what you're going for. I like high gain but with MojoMojo darker tones, low gain is where it's at.
Spot on. Mojo is my low gain go to 👍
I'm a Mojo Mojo fan. If you want something a little harder hitting than a Tube Screamer, then this is it. This thing reaches into Marshall amp territory.
Yeah, it's a great pedal. It's never off my board
Thanx for the review. Which is better? Not a lot of difference but although more gain can be exciting it can smear the harmonics and you lose a lot of tone. The pedal was not designed from the start to be high gain but a mid gain pedal. Like you pointed out the original is smoother at lower gains. A high gain pedal is best when that is all it was designed for. I find as a rule 99% of the time all OD's have one excellent sweet spot and maybe something a bit less gainy that is passable. I just accept it and buy more OD's, lol. I think the original is best but I would not hesitate to stack it if I needed more gain.
Why have one overdrive when 10 it's much better 😂😂😂 that's my philosophy and I'm sticking to it
I stack super metal mini by ibanez before MojoMojo... It makes it sing BRUH
@@ComicBookNerdOutCBNO that sounds like a brutal combo 👍
@@BudgetPedalChap it is
@@ComicBookNerdOutCBNO Interesting I would have thought using the Mojo as the boost. I stack my Metal Mini with an OCD because if I set up the Mini to get it really fat I need some high end boost in it :-)
It's been awhile since this went up, but here's my thoughts. I thought the Paul Gilbert model sounded better at lower gains. At higher gains, they both sound pretty much the same to me. So my pick is the PG model, but it's close. They're both great pedals.
Thanks for the comment 👍 yeah, I think they both have their uses. I use the standard one as an always on giving that edge of breakup tone. They're my favourite drive pedal
Good video and yes the original mojo mojo is a mainstay on my pedal board. It handles staging by a TS-9 or Klon clone well to produce the right rock going that can work well with a guitar volume. Works well with strats, Les Pauls, and telecasters. The original works GREAT if you are a volume knob user for tone and provides you usable sounds all the way down to shutoff. To me, the 11 switch on the PG just steps up the signal and if you have an always-on pedal - like I do with my Archer Ikon - then the added level is meaningless. They sound like they perform the same otherwise and the 11 switch is a special to PG feature. I play classic rock, hard rock, alternative, and even pop country and the original version covers that well. Sometimes the mojo mojo is the only pedal to give the distortion sound at a venue and is very versatile. Not sure the PG version gives you more than more loud and gain.
My opinion is that both are tweak and made to be stacked or to push a gain channel of an amp. They should sound good plugged before a fuzz or a OD-3.
I use mine as an airways on, just a touch of gain to give that grit when you dig in hard but I can see it working to push others too 👍
I prefer the bellowing tone of the original, especially when used on bright Marshall styled amps at high volumes. I also like how it pairs with single coil pickups.
Yeah it really does work well with single coils huh?
@@BudgetPedalChap Yes it fattens up, giving pleasant bloom, something you don't get with 3 knobbed TS styled overdrives.
Just to throw a cat among the pigeons - I settled on using a PG MM with a TS9 Tubescreamer going into it - absolutely sweet!
Well this is information, I am going to try that out 👍
That's almost exactly what I've been using for the last two years, except my TS is the TS808.
Only kids make choices, I want them all。
This is the secret 3rd option. It's the best one 😉
I like that OG at lower gain and the PG at higher gain. Shame the 11 switch on the PG isn't a footswitch though. That makes me wonder if they stake well into each other?
That's a fair assessment, I would agree. I'm probably going to have to try stacking them, aren't I 😂😂
Hmm now you have me wondering f I could mod it and replace the switch with a second foot switch...
Would love to see that Jamie!
Yeah, I'm pretty sure that's doable 👍
So why did TC Electronic do that? Very odd.
i own them both...i use the brown pedal for a ryhthm ch, purple pedal is my lead ch, i use a keeley el rey derado for my high gain pedal....they growl!❤
That's a brilliant idea for both 👍
If the PG model has the Original on the other end of that switch... It seems like the PG is the winner. You get 2 modes. Original and the New with more Push to it. Seems like a no brainer to get the PG to have Both pedal options in 1.
It's sound logic 👍
Mind you, it depends which amp you use, plus you can imagine what Paul gilbert use other thann this pedal. Nice one I have the original version and I'm happy enough, when I tried the LG the difference wasn't much, also remember... Paul gilbert has severe earing issues now 😬
Indeed, his hearing is absolutely shot these days. I imagine that'll be spending most of the 80s and 90s standing in front of rather loud amps 😂😂
@@BudgetPedalChap true, he says that too, how impressive thou he can still record killer stuff. Love him.
In my opinion Paul Gilbert is more better
First and I own the MojoMojo but I'm curious about the Paul Gilbert edition.
This one's for you then my chap 👍
MJMJ PG sounds Dark Matter.
DM it´s cheaper, sounds great with other pedals as booster, and a lot of gain headroom.
There are definitely differences, but I love the DM too 😂😂 why not get all of them. More pedals is better, surely
I actually like the brown original one better. Sorry Paul.
The standard mojo mojo is a classic 👍
I have one (PG's version). The tone is very dark to my use. I'm still finding a way to use it.
The bass control is your friend. Use the treble control almost as you would a tone control and set the bass for whatever guitar you are using. Often I have the bass at 1/3rd or less 👍
@@BudgetPedalChap Thanks! I'm using a Epi Les Paul and a Ibanez semi-hollow guitar. A lot of bass here. I'll try reduce the bass. Thanks again.
I think I prefer the OG version to start...then the PG gets takes over...
I think the og does low gain better, but the pg does the higher gain better. Justification for owning both, check ✅
Would an Eq pedal level the playing field here?
I believe the switch on the purple one also ups the gain, but you could get close I bet 👍
Could we get them stacked?
I sure can add it to the list 👍
Guess I'm "Old School"...really like the original with gain at around 10 o'clock.
The modified version sounds more, er, modern, and would probably be better for high gain.
That's pretty much how I use mine live. It's a great sound 👍
I think that the difference is so minimal, that in the end, there's a very big difference, but with the colour of the pedal
Who doesn't want a purple pedal?! 🤣
the Paul Gilbert sounds more like a fuzz to me
They can both get there, they have a lot of bass on tap. I think the PG has more and because of that, also has more gain too. Which do you think is better though?
@@BudgetPedalChap i'm still acclimating to the PG mojomojo. also, i don't have the original version. it's an interesting "flavor". i'll let you know!
