MOOER Matchbox Digital Preamp - 013
The MOOER Micro Preamp 013 Matchbox is a compact digital preamp pedal designed to capture the legendary tone, warmth, and dynamic response of the iconic Matchless DC30 boutique tube amplifier. As part of MOOER’s acclaimed Micro Preamp Series, the Matchbox delivers everything from sparkling cleans and rich edge-of-breakup tones to harmonically complex overdrive, making it an excellent choice for blues, classic rock, indie, country, worship, and alternative guitarists.
Built using MOOER’s advanced digital amplifier modeling technology, the Matchbox faithfully recreates the distinctive Class-A amplifier character that has made the original Matchless amplifier a favorite among professional musicians worldwide. The pedal provides exceptional note clarity, chime-like highs, warm midrange response, and authentic tube-like dynamics while maintaining an ultra-compact pedalboard-friendly format.
The pedal features two fully independent channels — Clean and Distortion. The clean channel offers bell-like articulation, sparkling highs, and exceptional headroom, while the gain channel delivers smooth vintage overdrive with rich harmonics, touch-sensitive breakup, and dynamic responsiveness ideal for expressive rhythm and lead playing.
Each channel includes independent Gain, Volume, Bass, Middle, and Treble controls, allowing detailed tone shaping and seamless switching between clean and driven sounds. The footswitch can operate in standard On/Off mode or Channel A/B mode, providing greater flexibility during rehearsals and live performances.
An integrated speaker cabinet simulation enables direct connection to recording interfaces, mixers, PA systems, FRFR speakers, and monitoring systems without requiring a traditional amplifier. The cabinet simulation can also be bypassed when used with conventional guitar amplifiers and speaker cabinets.
Constructed with MOOER’s rugged all-metal enclosure, the Matchbox is built to withstand demanding stage and studio environments while maintaining the compact form factor that has made the Micro Preamp Series a favorite among professional musicians.
