Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Does the MOSKYAudio Golden Horse overdrive pedal come with a power adapter?

A: No, the power adapter is not included. You will need a DC 9V AC adapter with a center-negative plug (positive pole outside, negative pole inside). Standard 9V guitar pedal power supplies like the Boss PSA-series adapters are compatible. Do not use a center-positive adapter as this may damage the pedal.

Q: What does "True Bypass" mean on this guitar overdrive pedal?

A: True Bypass means that when the effect is switched off, your guitar's signal is routed directly through the pedal without passing through any active electronics. This preserves your original, uncolored tone when the overdrive effect is not in use — a critical feature for tone-conscious guitarists.

Q: What guitar styles is the Golden Horse overdrive pedal best suited for?

A: The Golden Horse overdrive effect pedal is versatile enough for blues, rock, country, and classic rock styles. With its TREBLE, OUTPUT, and GAIN knobs, you can dial in anything from light, warm breakup to heavier, more saturated overdrive tones, making it adaptable to a wide range of playing styles and genres.

Q: Is the Golden Horse pedal compatible with bass guitar?

A: While primarily designed for electric guitar, many compact overdrive pedals with standard 1/4" jacks can be used with bass guitar. Results will vary depending on your bass and amp setup. For best results, test the pedal with your specific instrument and adjust the TREBLE, OUTPUT, and GAIN knobs accordingly.
