MGR/Jason Murdoch « Boss MT - 2 Metal Zone »
Published on 11/06/02 at 15:00Bought second hand for $50 aust.
I do like the range of tones, and adjustible eq they chucked on this model...it allows you to get all the other boss distortion sounds and adds some more sound to your repertior.
This is a great little pedal for practises and home studios...The main problem is that once you actually try and crank the thing up a bit, you lose all the tone, clarity, and in the end all you've got is a wall of muddy fuzz. I've spoken to quite a few recording engineers all who can't stand them and have some major issues making these things sound any good in the studio...
The other major problem is the amount of feedback you get with one of these pedals, if you want to play with a drummer, or at any kinda volume, expect a WHOLE lot of feedback...even with the distortion right down, nothing can save this one.
Boss stompboxes are pretty much the benchmark in quality...in the end after much wear and tear, i did have to start replacing a few things...but it lasted me pretty well
quite a good little pedal for practise, experimentation and home studio stuff...just dont try and turn it up.
