MGR/Chris « Boss MT-2 Metal Zone »
Published on 12/22/01 at 15:00i brought this pedal off a friend for $50 Aus (about $24us) who only just brought it new for $280 Aus because he brought a Digitech Multi Effects Board and didnt want it anymore. i got it because i play metal and needed a good distortion pedal
i like the rugged construction and the vast eq settings available
i brought this pedal expecting to have this monstourous bone shattering distortion, it does that pretty well but thats about it. this pedal sounds muddy , eats batters if you leave the cable plugged into it even if its off and you cant get any good distortion tones out of it , i play Metallica mainly and this pedal couldnt handle that for shit no matter what the eq and dist settings i had it on! sure this pedal is good if you play Pantera and the really loud ass music (which i occasionaly play) but for a good tone in a pedal this thing sucks!
the construction is amazing ive dropped it , thrown it and accidently spilt a drink on it and it still works fine the only thing that lets this pedal down is the muddy ultra high gain not enough control distortion this pedal gives out
bottom line this sucks if your a Metallica player or a player of any great tube toned band , its great for ultra heavy thrash but for normal Metal this isnt the pedal but this is only an oppinion , i much perfer the Marshall Jackhammer as it gives you a great tone and great controlability
