Great clone

This pedal is a clone of the Boss Metal Zone and it does a good job of copying that tone. There is more high end on this pedal than the Boss metal zone but that doesn't bother me to much. this pedal is great for Thrash or death metal.

Great distortion pedal.

This pedal is incredible for boosting mids and lows, but when altering the highs it makes them screechy and hard to listen to. Great for bands who want very aggressive guitar tone, but want to customize it for each song. Works great for bass distortion too!

Cheap and very good.

I wanted to get a cheap distortion pedal and the thing that sets this one aside for the money is the tonal range with the very good eq adjustments.

Alright I guess

I got it because I wanted a distortion pedal but I wouldn't recommend it.

Worst dirtiest £15 pedal I have ever heard. It sounds like a screaming goat has been trapped inside your amp.
