Boss MT-2 should do the trick.

I've heard good things about those Tonebone boxes. Never tried one though.

mxr is about my favorite brand for pedals these days, for sound quality compared to other stuff in their price range. i like boss too though.

I like the ML-2 alot, I played it through a Deluxe Reverb and it was pretty br00tal

Thanks for the information, the MT2 was my favourite and is my fav even more now. The trick with an EQ sounds good, because I always use a Boss GE7 in my setup for boosting the solo-volume.

I hope that I can test one at a store the next time with my equipment to get an impression how it sounds like, because I don't want to buy a stompbox without testing it.

Thanks again!:)

i just picked up a mxr 'classic distortion' for 25$
anyway, the jekyll and hyde is nice

Well, I tested the Digitech Death Metal some time ago, it was really... umm... not my sound, just too muddy... I've tested some pedals now, the Boss MT2 was the winner.

ok, bus seriously folks..... The ToneBone Hot British gets some great heavy tones if your amp can dial a decently flat tone. I have two, but I'm selling one... no need for a backup anymore.. subdecay blackstar is another good one. Wampler Plextortion too

Hey guys!

I want to use stompboxes now instead of the multi-FX I use for 3 years now, I'm just tired of it.

I'm playin' a Kustom solid-state head (wanted to buy a tube-amp but was very impressed of this "cheap" one) which I want to use for crunchsounds etc., but I need a pedal for a nice metal-sound, not too muddy, fat and tight, for Black and Death Metal shit.

I was looking for some BOSS pedals, for example the MT2 and ML2, but don't really know them.

So what would you advise? (my other stuff is a Seymour Duncan equipped Gibson Explorer and a Marshall 1960A)

Thanks in advance!

(PS: I don't want to see sentences like "get the EMGzorz" or a Mesa/Diezel/Engl, a V30 cab or something else, just a nice stompbox for my kind of music ;) )

get a 5150 and run it through and engl v30 cab with an EMG equipped guitar.

Keeley Modded MT-2 ?

I got an MXR micro amp i use, good little boost, one knob, pretty simple. Check out some Fulltone pedals, like the OCD

Well, I live in Germany, a lot of the pedals you've mentioned are not available here, and some others are too expensive for me. The Boss unites a good price and a great sound for me + a good versatility.

Try Electro Harmonix Metal Muff, the big one, not Nano Metal Muff...

I get some great tone out of my MT-2 and BBE Sonic Stomp combo. The Sonic Stomp gives the MT-2 more depth and balls.
