The Mini is a compact, knob-only overdrive with selectable clipping and a 3-band EQ in a smaller enclosure with a lower minimum current draw. The full-size Golden Boy adds an independent MOSFET boost, four MIDI-selectable clipping voices, a 4-step GAIN CYCLE, and full MIDI control, in a larger 2.7\" x 4.875\" enclosure. Choose the Mini for the smallest possible pedalboard footprint, or the full-size Golden Boy when you want MIDI recall and an onboard boost.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy guitarists choose the Golden Boy Mini\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA wide-ranging gain control moves smoothly from subtle grit to harmonically rich, saturated overdrive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSelectable Asymmetrical or LED clipping lets you choose between two distinct overdrive characters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA 3-band Baxandall-style EQ shapes the overdriven tone without coloring your clean signal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne of the smallest footprints and lowest current draws in the Jackson Audio drive lineup, at 2.5\" x 4.25\" and 35mA.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThree anodized colorways (Gold, Black, Rose Gold) let you match the pedal to your board's look.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eControls and switches\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGAIN\u003c\/strong\u003e — Sets drive amount across a wide range from subtle grit to saturated harmonic overdrive.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-band EQ\u003c\/strong\u003e — Baxandall-style tone shaping for the overdriven signal.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClipping selector\u003c\/strong\u003e — Chooses between Asymmetrical and LED clipping voicing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePower and pedalboard compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRuns on a 9V DC center-negative supply drawing 35mA.
