MGR/Igor « Boss Metal Zone MT-2 »
Published on 12/25/04 at 15:00I got this little beast at my local music shop. Its a great product, so it should be readly available almost anywhere. The unit was about 100 US$.
This thing is GREAT.. it may have the BEST metal sound of all the metal pedals out there. It has a very VERY wide range of gain. You can easly give your sound a bit of fuzz, or enough distortion to hear evey sqeak of your finger on the string (gives feedback at about 80% gain). It also features a 3 band EQ. They cut/boost the signal 15dB (quite a noticible range). The Mid freq is also VARIABLE. With these controls.. you can almost get any type of distortion. Like the name implies though, it is primarally a metal pedal, but its not limited to...
Its absolutely perfect.
Like any other Boss pedal, it is very very sturdy.. these things are made to last, from the knobs, to the case, to the jacks.. You can jump on the thing and it wont break. Knobs are pretty hard to break (unless you really try). The signal is pretty much 100% free of noise even at max gain (if you hear a moderate amount noise, its your guitar, or the low quality of your patch chords, with the right stuff, you shouldnt be able to tell if the effect is on or of by the amount of noise)
Its a proffessional quality pedal.. no doubt about it.
If price isnt an issue.. get it...!
