ridiculous metal distortion pedals

[univalve]

I think you should try the Digitech Death Metal pedal, pretty gross and cool.

this. and i love it on bass. slays.

uh, last i checked, most metal dudes just use straight amp toanz. like seriously, every rig rundown/every guy i know plays through AT MOST an overdrive

i mean, you have tone purists in most genres. i can guarantee you a lot of 'em use pedals in the more extreme side of the genre.

I don't think this thread is going for a modern metal tone (Straight amp or serious distortions like the dominator/openhaus/pisdiyauwot).

I think we're going for the over the top Swedish Death Metal fizz tone here

I have a metal muff with Top boost... the Metal Muff itself is a pretty cool high gain METALZ distortion, but the Top boost is just... a joke. a ridiculous joke.. it's like a freaking icepick.. and I mean that in the worst way possible.

MIT for $25-30 is where I bit -- happens, though they'll often run a bit more. If you see MIJ for that or close, you'll be able to get your money back on resale if you don't like it.

it's missing two knob covers and its going for 64. pretty good deal.

I had the 'B' model. Some people say it isn't as decent, but it sure was ripping.

[excane]

I'm going with old-school Boss - HM-2 or a Digitech deathmetal. They're both disgustingly beautiful.

The emma sucks fucking donkey dick.

See, I like the HM-2, but regardless of it's name, I don't think it sounds particularly like metal distortion. It's more of a fuzz to me.

Oh, I agree with you totally on that. One of the reasons I suggested it. In my head I always think of just HHEAAVVinesss with that pedal but it's definitely fizzy.

[excane]

If it's high end recommendation - Dominator, Triple Wreck, or Weehbo are all great choices.

I still love the MXR fullbore metal. Fucking LOVE it.
