Boss Metal Zone MT-2

If you own a pointy guitar or you like a 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 is plugged in it cut's off the feed from the battery to avoid draining the battery for no reason. The pedal ... more

The Boss Mt-2 pedal. Now where shall i start? Ah yes. The rigerous Boss Mt-2 pedal is somewhat of a mystery. It comes in the standard box shaped...box and a 9v non-working battery (Makes great use if your trying to corrode someones body part with acid). The box comes with: *The pedal *The instruction manual *The dead battery Which is all well and dandy and whatnot, but the fact is... £82?!! i mean yeah its like made some sort of black brick and has so many knobs to turn and make loud distorted noises with; but i can do the same thing slamming a door into each of my family's faces. It is a ... more

The BOSS Metal Zone MT-2 has become one of the world's most commonly used effects pedals, and is the pedal of choice of most of the metal genre's finest guitarists. It has a three-band equaliser and semi-parametric midtone equaliser to provide an optimum range of tones to suit a variety of subgenres. It seems that BOSS are so confident in their product that they have offered a 5 year warranty with their product. Perhaps this is because it is built of solid metal for extra durability; be it in your bedroom or at a live show. The Metal Zone MT-2 is powered either through a 9V AC adaptor or from ... more

This pedal will convert your small combo into a full on marshall stack. No kidding! There are a range of distortions available from fairly light overdrive type distortions to full-on Metallica-esque distortion. The latter is truely awesome. By setting a scooped setting the sound is second to none. It features treble, bass and 2 midrange tone controls which gives complete control over the sound. For use in metal playing, sustained power chords or smooth solo sounds I cannot recommend this pedal enough. Brilliant. I wouldn't recommend it to people who are after a less full on distortion as there ... more

If you love to play heavy metal, grunge, rock, punk or any simular styles then you will like this pedal. With controls for volume, distortion, high, middle and low levels and middle frquency, it is possible to get an astonishing number of good tones from this pedal. The instruction manual that comes in the box has 8 example presets to get you started but just a few minuites of playing around with the controls will and you will easily find a sound to fit your playing. I have had mine for at least a year, have gigged with it and thrown it around enough to know that the build quality is very good ... more

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 pedal, however a 9v battery will last you a very long time as long as you don't leave the jack cable plugged into ... more
