erosenda Posted December 20, 2005 Share Posted December 20, 2005 hey...interested in getting some effects. My rig is currently a gibson sg standard through a marshall. I am interested in some heavy distortion pedals like the Boss MT-2, the digitech metal master and death metal pedals, and the line 6 uber metal. I've read a lot of reviews on these and played through them all except the metal master. I was impressed with the line 6 uber metal, however want to give other manufacturers a chance as well. I dig the very chunky distorted thrash/death metal sound and am wondering what people's opinions/experiences are with these pedals and my guitar/amp set up. Would a multieffects be a better idea? I want to purchase something that I will be happy with for a long time. Any advice will help. Thanks for your time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kramer Ferrington III. Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 I bought one of those el cheapo Danelectro Fab Metal pedals and it's quite impressive. They go (new) for about 20 bucks. Band MySpace My snazzy t-shirt empire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caprae Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 We almost got the AMT Du Hast, but they were out of stock and awaiting a new shipment. http://www.pedalgeek.com/cgi-bin/new_shop.cgi?config=&uid=QiDqnAAA1135292644&uzc=&command=link--amt Watch out for some of those. Local guys that carried numerous pedals steered us away from some for their cheap switch. Raise your children and spoil your grandchildren. Spoil your children and raise your grandchildren.

Dr. Ellwood Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Which Marshall are you using? I think you should be able to get chunky bottom and sweet sustain and distortion out of your Marshall? http://www.thestringnetwork.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gifthorse Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 Yeah it is hard to believe you need a pedal at all. Keep in mind pedals tend to compress and make an amp sound smaller if you are already using considerable gain on the amp. http://flagshipmile.dmusic.com/ http://www.myspace.com/gifthorse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricardo. Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 The most recent GuitarPlayer stated that the Line 6 Uber-Metal pedal and Silver Dragon were top picks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geoff Posted December 23, 2005 Share Posted December 23, 2005 If you need the Marshall sound, the Marshall Guv'nor can do it for you with its 4 band EQ. G.
