Value For Money :
Excellent
Analog distortion pedal robust design (case and knobs), standard BOSS diet. Made in Taiwan.
I / O jacks, knobs LEVEL, DIST, HIGH, LOW, MID and MID FREQ.
USE
Exit the manual, plug the knobs and triturated directly to see that the equalization opens up many possibilities.
SOUND QUALITY
Used on many amp studio / stage Marshall, Fender, Crate, H & K ... Last test at home on a Fender Champion 110 (25w training) + a copy of lp59 by Hohner equipped with a big-HB bridge output level.
Starting from a neutral setting to the amp as the MT-2 can guess the drive to zero it will bleed. One turn confirms Drive fast as the potential is there and arrived halfway the knobs we are already in a well fitted distortion.
It quickly became apparent that the interest (and difficulty) of this pedal lies in the exploitation of the equalizer knobs. LOW responds perfectly to what can be expected of him, the HIGH is subject to a fine or very fine adjustment. The MID and MID FREQ are those on which flies the most time.
The combination of these different settings provides a frankly interesting distortion palette which, in my view, covers the needs of who wants a sound that déboîterait HP. I could play the TOOL, or the Sepultura Hardcore without being ashamed of my sound for years.
NOTICE GLOBAL
Purchased in the late 90 years I have used for at least 5 years in a metal style before turning to more 70s sounds.
At the time I did not try other pedal as BOSS MT-2 and were THE reference in pedal at a good price, competition was not the same either.
The only drawback of this pedal already been discussed hundreds of times, the highs are very fast or too present. This is very characteristic of this pedal and Modified exist for those who are not there. Character that I was never too bothered as long as I did not push too far or DRIVE HIGH but must recognize that at some level DRIVE punishment must be taken to refine the equalization under penalty of falling into a rather unfortunate sound mush.
In holding the potential of the pedal it deserves to ask the mod or not.
Purchase today I would do if I was looking for a sound metal.
