err im planning on my 1st pedal im thinking of metal muff but its too costly and hard to get
even bentley's stock arent available
so im thinking for other relevant pedal
im thinking of tm-01 or digitech 7-1 distortion
or other pedal that is quite good than the zoom mt-2
oppinion please thanks :D

tri metal harder to get than metal muff

i go for tri metal or ml2

why not try line 6 uber metal?

or moen distortion or violent metal?

how much violent and where to get?

the moen violent metal retails for RM295 @ the guitar store(sole distributor)
i wrote a review here some time ago. comparable to the metalzone

Boss pedal?

depends on what kind of sound you wanna get too. what kind of music you play etc

ermmm i played nu metal metal alt rock stuff like that
lol
i really want the metal muff but its too expensive
wat is violent metal?

metal muff sounds gud
u get wat u paid for
u cant get wrong wit EH

metal core is f@&kin heavy!!!
tried it, and its reli full of bottom crushing low end

I would get a Boss MT-2 Metal Zone, and then take it to JS Music to get it modded like the Keeley Modded MT-2 with Twilight Zone mod:

jz google jamtank but the forum is known for the bug plague
jz sold my last unit of metal muff...the micro1
and the other1 under reserved

there's 3metal muff size
normal 500 (i tink, i've nvr seen tat)
micro 400 (sold few)
nano (duno the price, and nvr seen it)

how different are the 3 metal muffs in terms of sound?

how to buy at jamtank? kredit card?

Jam Tank is another forum for musicians...... but there are alot of rude and sometimes inconsiderate people that lurks and posts there.

LOL!!

Well that's actually quite true.I'm a jamtanker myself,and I do see some flaming sometimes.

lol

work out by COD most of the time

lols ok
when we buy a pedal does the shop provides a cable for it?

What cable are you talking about?

power supply = no

guitar cable = no

WHATTTTTTTTTTT?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEN IT COST MORE THAN 500 BUCKS LIKE WTF?!

Ummmmmmm........ that's the cost of pedals. If you don't like it....... don't buy it.

i thot it give off everything...

oic...emo... hmm.... i think boss mt-2 is more than enough

ML-2 is yummy for grindcore/death metal riffs

i just want sumthing diffrent than "lol we malaysian what?" >_>

Majority of the pedals don't come with anything...... MAYBE a power adapter for some..... but even high-end boutique pedals seldom come with power adapters.
All my MXR/Dunlop pedals I bought don't come with power adapters and I have to buy a separate MXR power Brick adapter for them all. The only one I bought so far that came with a power adapter is my Digitech Whammy because of the voltage difference it requires.

But this is maybe because alot of musicians PREFER batteries because they claim it eliminates some of the hum...... or so they claim.

But in terms of audio cables? No dice. Guitar Cables are also very subjective to the musician. For me, of course I would prefer Monster Cables if I can afford them, and would be horrified if they included a cheap cable. Some would prefer DiMarzios or Planet Waves or whatever...... Remember, any extra stuff that is packaged with a pedal just adds to the cost, and most musicians has all the cables/power supply they need in the first place. If I had to pay a hundred bucks more for a pedal because of he added power supply and cables? I'd be pissed!

by teh way what cables are good and how much?
i use ibanez instrument cable cost me arround 17bucks screw that

Monster Cables. A Regular 15feet cable........ Oh, about RM150

i just need at home u mofo

i started off with planet waves then switched to ibanez noise reduction cables. huge difference, i highly reccomend it

RM35 for 10' of planet waves, around RM45 for 15' or 20' of ibanez iirc

it is for gutiar to pedal or pedal to amp???

the cable? either. they're generic

guitar > cable > pedal > cable > amp

an MT-2 should be okay for nu-metal...and it's probably the most versatile (AND AFFORDABLE) of all the "metal" pedal's i've tried so far. ML-2 for killing random small rodents with the pure blast of lows and highs from your rig.
Metal Muff is sexy, and you will get every cent you pay for it back in amazing tone, but the price tag is still the bummer for me
dont worry i was screaming like tat too when i saw the price on my dream pedal.
MXR Dimebag Darrell Abbott signature distortion pedal for RM 660 anyone?

I'm using the ibanez noise reduction ones too. about 50- 80 bucks depending on length. I want monsters but I can't get my hands one any here....yet.

MT2 versatile?How do you get a good tone thru that box of bees?I find the pedal only useful thru a good amp.Can't get a bonecrushing tone thru it with an SS amp.Care to share?

Well, it's always at the studio my band practices at. some way or another my 2 guitarists manage to figure out a way to make it give crunching tone for out heavier stuff, and a more "hollow" relaxed tone for rhythm parts on slow songs and also face-melting lead power for our slow songs too.

of course, they spend an eternity playing with the EQs on the pedal AND the amp, as well as occasionally using the amp's stock overdrive/whatever is built into it to create a unique blend. They mix it with the other pedals provided too for added fun. MT-2 as a single pedal, completely alone, has some things that could be worked on.

Edit: Just a side note, it wasn't voted Boss's product of the year for several years running for no reason.

box of bees? the metalzone is damn versatile la. can get many many tones out of it. if you say its only useful through a good amp, its only because every pedal is like that i used a metalzone for awhile(borrowed a friends) running through my shitty kustom practice amp(solid state) and it still sounded good to my ears.


someone was selling one on JT for rm400ish. dunno if its still there.

yea, he's selling it on LYN too. I'm debating whether to raid my CNY income for my beloved pedal or wait and do some other stuff first, like maintenance for my guitar and bass. FRETBUZZ GALOREEEE, an electronics checkup, and probably adjusting the setup.

Sorry lar if you felt offended.Help me ask em their settings for the mt2 yea?That'll help a ton.

im still getting metal muff i think
mt-2 is too common

doesn't matter if its common or not.. as long as its good
but i'd say go for the metal muff if you can

Yes!The almighty metal muff ftw!Write a review once you get it

How about the Krank Distortus Maximus??

http://www.musiciansfriend.com/product/Kra...edal?sku=157600

or MI Audio Tube Zone.....

http://www.miaudio.com/TZ1.htm

heard tat its trying to simulate mesa's sound.... hahaha

Sansamp GT2.

no metal muff im saving and sure i write the review more like 3 months later? LOL

lol u better test it 1st

it's all up to your ears really, hours of trial and error.
all they did was take the general "famous" settings like scooped mids for chugging, boost for lead, etc etc and just tweaked it to their liking.

one thing is they don't overtweak the pedal EQ unless they're scooping mids. if they want a high boost they add some on the pedal and some on the amp and whatnots..... it's just trial and error.
Main thing is just don't max out the distortion knob unless you're really looking for crunch. about 2 o'clock should be sufficient.
