Overdrive Through High Gain Amps
Overdrive Through High Gain Amps
Your pre-amp tubes will have a HUGE effect on your overall tone. I'd start there.
And "fullbore metal" is hands down the worst pedal I've ever heard.
If you like overdrive stomp boxes? The MXR Zakk Wilde or Boss Super OD are awesome.
I've got whatever the 6L6 tubes are that come in the dual rectifier one.
I thought the Zakk W pedal was just the fullbore pedal!?
Entombed recorded their first two records with a Boss HM-2 through a solid state peavey combo amp. The HM2 will basically get you that old swedish death like Entombed and Dismember. You can find them from $30-$60 used. I have one and it sounds huge. Also check out Black Breath, a newer band utilizing the HM2
If you want killer metal tone @ low volume. (good for recording)
See if you can find an mid 90'z pedal called, "Zoom driver 5000".
It sound amazing up to about 25w. Then for some reason it seems
to go flat?? But down low.... It's a monster! And a "must have" for
any studio. You should be able to track one down on eBay for $75.
Id try Guitarcenters uses section on their website. Ive seen them go as low as $30 there.
Funny you should say that...went to local music store over lunch and picked one up for $45 but it's pretty beat up looking. They said to give it hell and if it didn't work, to bring it back...so I'm out nothing either way.
