There it is on the left of my board. Surprisingly this is a pretty versatile pedal. I expected it to really just be for metal type playing but you can get some other great sounds from it, from classic rock to blues. Really happy with it (although this picture has made me realise i really need to dust my board and pedals)

Versitile distortion, thick and chunky or light and crisp depending on your needs. Yet again Donner Music have shamed the bigger brands showing quality doesn't always come with a big price tag!

4 stars is really a harsh review. It does exactly what you can expect in terms of sounding like a well known classic distortion pedal with the addition of a ‘hyper’ mode. It only looses a star to the level of ’like it’ as that’s what I feel about the original pedal as it turns out! (Think a bit bigger than a mouse and in capitals if you aren’t aware of which pedal I mean). I use it when I want something more messy than my other drive pedals (TS9 and Guv’nor both modded). Value? Unbelievable frankly. Don’t bother buying more expensive direct equivalents believing you will get a better result. You really won’t.

Superb pedal that really stands up against the boutique pedals I have. The dark mouse is an absolute pleasure, thick sounding, plenty gain and options to shape the tone!

Great rat clone. Love the price.

Dark Mouse is a fuzz-like high gain pedal, especially for heavy metal players! It is suitable for heavy rock! Great!

This pedal arrived the very next day after I ordered it! Loved the tones portrayed on a YouTube demo, and it works really well with my pedal chain. This pedal is great for anyone wanting to play hard Rock!

The dark mouse is an awesome pedal! It sounds close enough to the rat for me and it has more tonal range. I also own the Donner dumble drive and the sophgate and I'm very impressed with the quality of their effects pedals for the cost.

I love Donner pedals, and I especially love the Dark Mouse. Classic, raw, paint peeling distortion. Just the right amount of fuzz, great tones, and singing sustain. These pedals are built well and sound pro. For the price, you can’t go wrong.

Nice and loud. Lots of good options for the distortion, loving the Hyper mode the most so far.
Works great with my two basses, one fretted and one fretless.

I bought the Donner Dark Mouse on a whim instead of a rat. I'm really glad I did. I like this pedal more than I thought I would. It can go high distortion and get on the edge of fuzz territory but I really use it with lower distortion and it adds a little bite to my tone. It really jazzes up a solid state amp giving it more of a tube like vibe. Earned a place on my board among higher priced pedals. It also feeds directly into my Yellow Fall delay pedal.

Love these pedals. Solid and so far reliable. Great tone.

The Donner Dark Mouse sounds amazing!! I have already used it on a few recordings. I own several Donner pedals and this is definitely one of my new favorites.

I love this pedal. The range of distortion on the Dark Mouse is impressive! From a lightly overdriven tone to a full-on distortion assault, you have it all here! Very true to its inspiration, I really like the filter control and the micro switch to select between classic and hyper. It delivers loads of tonal choices for any style. Great pedal at any price, but a stellar bargain from Donner! I highly recommend it.

I wanted a distortion pedal that could deliver heavy distortion, and boy am I happy. From the light overdrive of its lowest setting, to buzzy fuzz, and everything in between, this pedal delivers. The tone knob can make it Slayer bright, or Sabbath dark. I could not be happier with my choice!

Great pedal for the money
Sounds as good as The Rat pedal it is based on
I have 3 of their mini pedals
All of them well made, sound great and good value

I have a couple of Donner effects and they are great for your budget dollarwize and on your pedal board.
The D-mouse packs a lot of versatility into a mini pedal. The filter control (as opposed to a tone control on some pedals) made me really like this pedal. You can use the filter to take the output from a Muff style to an aggressive edgy sound. The filter seems to have a varying level of effect on the two settings of Classic and Hyper that you can change with the toggle switch so depending on your own style preferences you will want to spend some time dialing it in with whichever setting you choose. Tweaking the distortion level and the Filter together can really fine tune the sound. On top of that there is a nice level of transparency to the effect that does not muddy up the guitar sound. Gibson style pickups work well with this pedal.

For the price, this is a great pedal and you can really get some great tones out of it. I was looking for more of a rhythm distortion, but I've been using this a little more for leads on the "hyper" mode. It plays great through a fender hot rod amp, and for this price, you really cant go wrong with it. The pedal itself feels really sturdy and solid, as well as all of the controls and power jack. The classic setting is like it says, its a more fuzz-type distortion, while the hyper mode is a stronger, brighter type distortion. This pedal really gives a great sound just starting out with everything at the 12 o'clock setting on all controls, but you can easily dial in your tone with its range. Highly recommend this pedal to anyone looking for a very functional distortion pedal, regardless of price.

good fun, compact and functional, it also seems robust adding a new dynamic to the ukulele
