On 2003-01-04, E. Arnold gave this Boss Guitar Effects a 4...(3774)
Purchase: Got it for around US$70 brand new.
Pros: A very flexible unit in the sense that it has 4 bands to medal around with. Good level of distortion is generated. As the name suggests, it is a metal distortion effect but it's more suited for classic metal like Iron Maiden and Metallica. It doesn't give the staggering lows in todays Hard rock or Nu Metal music.
Cons: It could've produced more bass. Also, if too much distortion is used, it gets too fuzzy and you cant play clear chords.
Quality: Excellent, very sturdy. It's built from metal.
Summary: It's a good pedal for it's price. Maybe with the right amp, you might be able to get a Nu Metal sound. If you cant afford tube amps with a proper head, then this pedal is for you.
