The sound ranges from a medium-heavy crunch to a deep dark, almost fuzz, with some fabulous 90s alternative rock distortion in the middle. I wouldn’t call it a modern metal pedal, but compared to Donner Morpher, it is much closer to modern metal-rock sounds. The versatility of Dark Mouse truly exceeds Morpher’s, as you can easily reach 70’s, 80’s, or modern 90’s metal-rock tones.
