Ancient Mariner Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 (edited) I've heard nothing either way, but it wouldn't surprise me that they were restricting access to stock to keep the price up. Time to sell my Elec Lady then. BTW It's not just Marcmart. WTFaccessories also have a 'full range' but no stock.

BigBeatNut Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 [quote name='Lozz196' timestamp='1358696253' post='1943484'] I tried out the black distortion pedal the other day. Quite nice, but did remove a fair chunk of low frequencies, plus adding a lot of mids as well. Ideal for guitar solos, but not so much as a bass drive - which I`m sure it wasn`t made for anyway. [/quote] Which one was that ? The Black Secret ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrismuzz Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Interestingly, I bought a new 8 way daisy chain cable from effectpowersupplies the other day, and it's a Mooer branded one. I wonder if they're going to bring any other bits and bobs out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ant Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 has anyone got hold of the graphic bass EQ yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted March 26, 2013 Share Posted March 26, 2013 Id find it hard to believe they don't want people buying their products. I have 2 and would have 2 more now if they were in stock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBeatNut Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Anyone else seen this ? [url="http://www.mooeraudio.com/en/news_show.asp?MsgID=48"]Mooer Urgent Announcement 14th March[/url] If I'm reading that right, they're claiming that Mooers sold through W'T'F and Marcmart were fakes (okay, 'not genuine', that's close to 'fake' isn't it ?) I've got to say I find that scarcely credible. Would anybody go to the bother of make a fake copy of something that's already a copy of something else ? I suppose it's possible that there's a factory that supplies mooer that's also supplied other outlets (W'T'F, Marcmart) direct, but it's a stretch to call those products 'not genuine' (to my mind) if that is what's happened.

jaydentaku Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) oh great! Well, they work and I am happy with them. I guess thats my lot and there is little I can/want to do about it. I have taken a look at the photos on the official UK distributors website and they fairly identical to me, bar a screw hole in the white knobs and the mooer logo is slightly bolder. This doesn't say anything though as parts easily change over time. The insides of mine look fairly good quality, though that says very little these days. The only way to decide is to compare like for like with a known genuine pedal, especially from the inside and audibly.

Ancient Mariner Posted March 27, 2013 Author Share Posted March 27, 2013 Most likely either 2 people had different ideas on marketing/pricing policy or a little 'overproduction' found it's way out through a side door. I'm sure all the mooer units were genuine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigBeatNut Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 [quote name='Ancient Mariner' timestamp='1364418057' post='2026317'] I'm sure all the mooer units were genuine. [/quote] I'm sure they are, too Genuine in the sense that they came from exactly the same source as every other Mooer pedal. Call me cynical, but the announcement looks to me like a bunch of fibbing and scaremongering in order to try and keep us away from the cut-price outlets.

Ancient Mariner Posted March 28, 2013 Author Share Posted March 28, 2013 Marcmart have a good range listed, but WTFaccessories are all out of stock. Hmmmmm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
