Boss Metal Zone MT-2, tear-down photos, with schematic.

possibly the worlds most common pedal, the metal zone has had a pretty bad reputation, but I actually like it, in the right circumstance.

the metal zone has a very strong pre-eq that mimics the pre-amp tone of a Marshall or fender. I assume this was intended to give a cheep solid state practice amp the tone of those classic amps.

(chart of the frequency response, and schematic of the first stage of the MT-2)

it was common for early solid state amps to be more linear then a fender/Marshall, which have a very pronounced high end bump. (this is a result of the non-linarity of the tone control.) the high end bump can be flattering to a lead guitarist, and necessary to get a screaming hi-gain sound.

if the metal zone is placed before an amp that already has a pronounced hi end, it is going to sound very bad. I prefer to use it directly into a DI box, but it can also be run straight into a power amp with good results.

I'm in the process of modifying this particular pedal, and converting it to a rack mount distortion, to better fit my recording process.

Smallsound/ Bigsound F*ck Overdrive clone I made.

A comprehensive range of clean boost to blown out amp sounds with this circuit. The sag feature means you can starve the voltage to the distortion when you play hard enough (determined by the threshold and depth). What results is notes that fade and stutter into focus in really interactive ways. I’m excited to try it on drums.

The box I did the swirly water spray paint trick and then used my dremel to grind out the lettering.

Housemate drew me the dogs.

I got the prettiest and most badass sounding effects pedal from @pheadhones today!!

It's a shame I don't have a pink guitar to go with it but I do have a kickass pink tee to wear when I rock out 😋

GOJIRA DESTRUCTION - brutal signal distortion with 3 interactive variables

The GOJIRA DESTRUCTION distortion pedal is based on a the rare GREEN MONSTER pedal, but it also includes a booster (LBP1) to increase the output level after it has been shattered, but it still works best in combination with other high gain pedals. This machine produces the most noisy and harshest signal distortion, that i have come across so far. Like the name-sake, it leaves nothing unharmed and reduces 'what once was' to smoldering debris. The 3 VARIABLES of the sound are very interactive and have a lot of 'sweet spots', so you can create a plethora of distortions. The top right pot is the VOLLUME knob and the toggle switch selects two slightly different GAIN settings. It is a TRUE BYPASS effect with a green indicator LED, build into a die-cast aluminum enclosure painted with an unique ‘burned out industry’ camo pattern and a piece of PCB around the knobs. Power-socket: 9V DC , 2,1mm DC jack boss-style (inside -/+ outside) PSU is NOT included. Handmade by GRM for METSÄÄN. Buy here. (link to webshop.) Demovideo follows.

I love Crock pedals. My first was a blue TM-2 Thrash Master. Since these were made in such small numbers in early 90’s Ukraine, they are very hard to come by, and my friend in Kyiv seeks them out for me when he can. He sold me the first Thrash Master, and a few other Crock designs that remain some of my favorite pedals. And now he has found this gorgeous white w/red knob Thrash Master color variant that I’m really excited about. On top of this, I got the opportunity to pick up the DOD pedal from which the Crock Thrash Master borrows its name for very cheap. Besides presenting the chance to do a side by side comparison of these two different pedals with the same name, it means I will have three Thrash Master’s in trans flag colors. And that’s pretty fucking fun.
