Boss Metal Zone MT-2

...bit of Sepultura then the Boss Metalzone is the distortion pedal for you. Plug it in and turn up your Marshall stack and you'll soon be chugg-a-chugging away with the best of them. This pedal has the typical Boss build quality i.e. you could pound it all day with a seven pound lump hammer and it wouldn't even show a dent and as with all Boss pedals you can power it from either a 9v battery or an external power supply. When an external power supply ...

The first is the level control with can provide a massive amount of volume boost when you switch the effect in. you may want to go easy with this one as it can prove to be a little over the top at times.

...then I couldn't recommend this Boss pedal to you enough! it hosts a whole range of distortion levels from light to extremely heavy and let's you customize the EQ levels to fine tune the sound you want. When you buy a Boss pedal you know you're spending your money wisely, because not only are they built out of metal to last a lifetime but the audio quality is exceptional and will never let you down! I do recommend buying an Ac adaptor for this ...
...long time as long as you don't leave the jack cable plugged into it (as this causes the battery to drain). CONCLUSION If you play any form of rock be it punk, metal, grunge or rock n' roll I guarantee you'll get a great sound out of this pedal to fit your exact distortion needs! I can't recommend this pedal enough if your guitar playing style fits into any of the above sub-genres of rock! ...
