MGR/Static71 « DOD FX-86B Death Metal Distortion »
Published on 09/08/03 at 15:00I got this thing off Musician's Friend for like 50 bucks, and it was worth every penny. I paid like 8 bucks on insurance, but I know I'm garunteed for 3 years.
I like everything about this pedal, the sound is just terrifying, the ear piercing highs on the e string, and the graoning low chords that could shake the ground. I really like the sound, because the only other distortion I had was the Danelectro Black Coffee, which was not givig me the sound I wanted. My amp also had no distortion, so I was screwed until I bought this little baby. I also like blood look on the pedal, along with the labels on the knobs.
The only thing I don't like is replacing battteries, that can be annoying.
It's made out of metal, not plastic, so it's obviousley well constructed. Everythiung is made out of plastic these days. I don't think it's going to break, I barely use my foot to turn it on and off, i usually use my hand, so I think it will last a long time.
If you like that sensitive crap rock, don't buy this pedal. If you like tear your guts out and serve them inside of an amp rock, this is the pedal for you. One more thing I don't think you should put the high Eq all the way up on this thing, it blows out amps easily.
