A solid, very usable pedal.

dcalde78 09.04.2018

I bought this pedal to use in front of a solid state amp for a death metal band. The amp i was using wasn't capable of high gain in the slightest and this pedal added more than enough to play death metal.

You have EQ, gain, volume and a boost. Weirdly, the boost seems to affect the tone, but as I always had the boost on for a little extra volume with the gain set around 50%, it wasn't really an issue for me but is something to consider if you plan on using the boost for solos - it will change your tone.

Everything feels nice and solid, it's got a metal housing, the knobs are chunky and solid and turn smoothly and the footswitches have a nice solid click to them. The only problem I encountered is that for some reason I can't quite fit a 9V battery through the battery door as the opening isn't quite big enough. Since the back plate has screws that can be undone I just removed that and swapped the battery out that way, but if you use a power supply its not an issue. All in all, a nice pedal.

A truly metal experience

Orfeo1608 28.11.2017

I brought this pedal because I needed a cheap alternative for a tour situation. Was very pleasantly surprised, not only the two effects are very distincted, but also the sound changes provide alot of possibilities and styles. The gain regulation can work also if you want to trow some dirt on your blues. Levels and volume are very detailed for his price range. Thebox is in metal so it's not easy to break. Only reason for no five stars are the knobs that look a little fragile. If you have to start with ametal pedal buy this one.

Great Value for money

Great pedal. For the full range of sounds that this pedal is capable of you need to put the guitar signal first through a compressor then into the Extreme Metal pedal.

it's very good for the price.
