Boss metal zone ''pedal''

[winstonschannel]

I think this pedal looks, well, sounds great, as long as you have some idea of how to set it up right. Defiantly suited for solid state amps though, would be great for home use. Im getting one without a doubt :)

[MrValentine101]

From what i've noticed most people who call the pedal shit just don't normally know how to use it. Or they don't try and adjust their equipment to it then they get shit sound.

[slash181]

This pedal sounds like shit, this guy did the pedal no justice. 

[petelebu]

i have this pedal, the more you crank up the sound on your amp, the worst it sounds

[TheOpensourceFTW]

Does this pedal play bllack metal and death metal ?

[Devilrawr]

he's so freakin high xD adda boy

[macke50]

48 people do not like metal

[superguitarshredda]

the metal core peadl has more bite i dont like metalcore but the pedal kicks ass

[tomastrozo]

Son una mierda esos pedales u.u

[kapnkrinkly]

Definitely need a lot of persistence to finally get the right tone out of one of these. The EQ knobs are really, REALLY sensitive. I've had mine for 2 months and I finally got it to sound right. Good for metal, go figure.

[mynameandy13]

@kapnkrinkly dude, i know exactly what you are talking about, but i've got mine set where i like it and its KICK ASS

[KingBendix6]

watch its the same guy /watch?v=uzMq6L9sW7c&feature=r­elated

[Corpsegrinder54]

oohhhhhh yeeeeeaaaa !!!!!!!

[deathmetalguy666]

quit doing ''acid'' man

[Crowenan]

Might have a little more metal tone if he switched it off the neck pickup, a little to "round" of a tone for a review

[fullstepdown]

if you think its awesome you just havent heard enough other pedals. but its quite good though

[Soldier1287]

How does this sound bad? It's awesome! I want one. I don't see anything wrong with it at all.

I guess some people think they too cool for it and they think they're some kind of guitar god.

100 bucks is alot of money in my budget. Especially in these days.

[dzohusafetw]

a man i thought it was a demo, and then i saw you

[CitySkateboards]

that guy definitely just smoked a bowl

[EtherealNoiseV]

id like to hear a nice METAL riff to go with this metal.

[iquill]

2:10 "alright, so let's just rape my tone beyond belief."

[FallenPrey33]

Jesus Christ Man!!! Are you being forced to do this???

[Albee213]

Yeah, the first thing I did was open the box, remove the pedal and through the rest across the room and have never looked at it again.

[Darklordbrink]

@georgieprescott Good Advice. I did that and I also bought an EQ pedal. Now I can get just about any sound I need. Thanks!

[Bpet18]

i feel bad for guys like this guy that have to try to make these shitty pedals sound good... its not easy.

why do people buy these pedals? im curious

[TheRasze]

sounds horrible, nuff said

[MaxMulisHa]

hahahaahahaha...ur face make me laugh..hahahwhen

[fritosofdoritos]

would this pedal sound good with a marshall mg 250 dfx?

[brooomvroom]

what song did he play first?

[spidercage]

MT 2 sounds like shit to be honest. Go ahead and buy this crap fools!

CRAP!!!!

[easydp]

@spidercage sounds decent when you set it right and crank up the bass on your amp, or on the pedal.

[spidercage]

MT 2 sounds like shit to be honest. Go ahead and buy this crap fools!

[127guitardean127]

lay off the acid tabs : )

[Thr4sh4lot]

dont have a roland battery anymore!! :O

[Dooder87]

what kinda of fool would use a metal zone pedal with a marshall jcm2000?

[lordakamai]

that pedal sounds like SHIT in this video

[adrianestuvoalla]

dude , i conected my mt 2 pedal to an adaper that wasnt a boss adapter , it had higer voltage so it fried , what can i do plase help me , im not an expert with this kinda things , , all i gotta do is change the wires , or is it far beyond repair ?????:S:S:S

please help

[JSC3]

lol why do people hate this dude?

[siessen]

gay

[juku223]

@siessen

lol

[falloftroy555222]

somebody please answer my question,....which would be a better pedal for metallica sounding, the metal zone or metalcore?

[letsgetcarriedaway]

@falloftroy555222 metalcore.

[aaron69hagen]

3:45 actually

[aaron69hagen]

haha 3:46 it sounds like he says you can hear piss coming out!

[firehawkmusic]

While this is pretty boring and the guitar playing isn't world class, I dissagree about the petal. I have a gibson 1976 firebird and play it through an old Randal half stack, and I find that I can get some pretty nice tone and distortion from it. The only downsides are that it won't give you the super high attack hardcore death metal sound and it does need a noise gate petal to cut down on noise, but I personally am very pleased.

[andy92811]

He needs to crank the amp and use a different guitar.

[EvoPogo]

YOU SUCK!!!

have a shower.

[metalshredder14]

SO BORING!! No body follows the instructions, just experiment with it. You can get way better sounds if you go through different settings on the amp as well.

[libertyfalls]

gotta love the douchbags from queerwire. Nobody gives a squirt of piss about the damn paperwork that comes with it.

[wedge070]

@libertyfalls No kidding.. we dont wanna watch someone open a box... good gawd dude.....

[easydp]

@libertyfalls here here. i bet nobody disagrees wit you. the unboxing, i ask you! hahaha

[XXBigJunetownXX]

Sounds gay digitech=WAY BETTER!

[cminormusician]

doesnt seem like it got alot of strength and attack to it.

[myownse1f]

the boss mega distortion is like 10 times better than this pedal

[Codsrock]

more interested on that marshal...

so what he gotta do next? sleep again? hahaha!

[ADEZK]

metal zone sucks :D

[Serbianmate45]

Holy shit, marshall amps!

[TheJonOhBoy]

everyone always makes odd comments about this dude.

[RNRDOLL]

because he sucks

[killfroggy26]

He always looks like he just rolled out of bed. "Agh"......."Damit!" "Have to get up for work and test a peice of equipment". "I wonder if they'll have donuts in the brake room".

[tanukitejon]

@killfroggy26 hahahahaha.. true, lazy bastard

[rockerxXxrapper]

@killfroggy26 -haha this guys sounds really enthusiastic bout his job shit if that was me id be like FUCK YEA ITS THE MT2 muthafucka lets drop c this shit n rock it the fuck out show u what i get outtta it man i got a mt2 n its sounds better than this faggots playing!

[Arturohoz]

hello, how much is this pedal? i´m interested in this pedal

[TommittajaFIN]

have you ever heard of google?

[killfroggy26]

Not living in the states are we?

[pivetlord13]

@Arturohoz around 80 dollars

[sloppyjoe1977]

dont get it dude...it blows ass...its hard to get the sound you want and its very screechy. and feedback is horrible

[Mr8odoras]

if u play thrash punk or crust

this is exactly the pedal u want

i myself use mt-2 with the ge-7 equalizer and i got the exact sound i want

total distortion

[killfroggy26]

I hate how the ge-7 hums so loud. Im looking to have it modded.

[BboyArpeggios]

Go for the metal muff. It has a more natural sounding distortion. IDK, but boss distortion pedals sound so fake and processed. I say go for the metal muff or the mxr fullbore.

[KhaozMaker94]

this or the Metal Muff? which one is heavier like to get metallica..megadeth tones and such as sepultura..slayer..carcass tones?

[calamunci]

@KhaozMaker94 definitely the metal muff.

[N1nja32]

this guy is so much better than that guy from world music supply! he actually plays riffs made for this pedal!

[gnomes1235]

which pedal would be good for technical death metal?

[NoiseMaker231]

I <3 technical metal but unfortunately for you bro, i dont know what pedal would be good. Depends what band. Give me the name of a band whose tone you want.

[gnomes1235]

the faceless, necrophagist.. i really dig michael keenes solo distortion tones on the faceless planetary duality album..

[NoiseMaker231]

Dude I love the faceless. An autopsy has my favorite breakdown ever. You might want to avoid pedals in general. You would like a nice amp distortion. Line 6 or Randall. You really dont get the tone you want with one of these pedals.

[gnomes1235]

ya i really dig the jazz influenced solos on planetary duality.. i have a fender hot rod deluxe tube amp, so the distortion isnt good for tech death really...

[lucaswsf]

I use the Line 6 Über Metal in combination with a V-Amp 2, they sound amazing and can be very versatile.

[FingerLickinGravy67]

crank the distortion, put high at 9oclock n other shit were u like it then its good

[axegrinder89]

is this better than the electro harmonix metal muff?

[YaBaBy5000]

does this petal sound good with a crybaby wah?

[JudahStreet]

its ok

[JuanPaccl]

por vender ponen cosas q no son

[Xtortion1337]

Freep the Swequency!

[ricforfreedom]

this pedal can be sound better

[Mcboobiezzz]

thanks man but never mind i found an even better pedal now that wipes both the metal zone and core out of the water, just listen to EHX's metal muff, u'll see what i mean, its a very versatile pedal.

[Mcboobiezzz]

I have pretty much the same question...if I want to play music like disturbed or slipknot which pedal would be best? Metal core or Metal zone?...I was thinking metal core but idk for sure yet b/c they both sound awesome lol

[KhaozMaker94]

what i have heard is that the mt2 can match metal core sounds..i dont know if thats real..

[DeathPenguin1000]

Which pedal would be better for Pantera and Metallica stuff? The Mt-2 or the Ml-2? Also, at one of my local music stores there is an Mt-2 on sale for $50 and a Ml-2 for $80. So should I get the metal zone?

[thelongrangers]

MT-2 I bought both and by far the MT-2 had a better tone scoopy like metallica

[MattiGardners]

is the boss metal zone/metal core or mxr fullbore metal best?

[axegrinder89]

most of the time boss pedals are better than any other

[Zakk5021]

the pedal is good but that mother fucker is an as.....

[littlephil23]

It sounds like a can of bees in an ambulance being chased through a minefield. It is not good.

Unless you have a modded one ala Keeley.

[Zakk5021]

mmm creo que tienes razon no suena muy bien tu cual recomiendas ? el metal zone ? o el uber line 6

[rokinrandy]

Ok ! He is not kidding. He is now telling me what is inside the instruction Manual...Time to go,lol

[gitsata]

a huge shit

[jmp1jmp1]

one of the most over priced and worst sounding dist pedals of all time

[dannynaru255]

well, well, but very boring. son of the bitch, i put you ***** 5 stars, not for your video, only for having fu jajaja

[TheGitaarAAP]

boring vid.

[octavarium2457]

i do not like this pedal

[kirkhammett26]

this video does not fo this pedal justice

[Boliviolino]

i play with this boss :DD

[parosite]

if you open one more box and show the instructions im kicking the shit out of you !!

[InFuriatedShadows]

shit

[xzeater666x]

WOW i want this D: wheres the cheapest one i can buy PLEASE........

[tw1sta]

Google it tard

[xzeater666x]

wow im so tired of people saying affensive shit even the word tard is getting anoyying

[tw1sta]

Affensive?Anoyying? ha ha yeah, tard still suites you perfectly.

[xzeater666x]

Douch -.-

[tw1sta]

Actually, its spelled douche*

How stupid are you? I mean You Tube gives you a spell check, the least you could do is fix the obviously misspelled words,like "Affensive" or "douch". Go to school kthnxbai.

[xzeater666x]

uhmm i think evry1 on here purposlly misspells things its much quicker and HAHA very funny since you brought that point of me misspelling things you used spell check and perfect grammer just to try to make it a bit more OFFENSIVE but you trully dont write that way just to look big and BAD w/e PLZ stop writing back i hate arguing D:

[tw1sta]

Yeah i forgot how much time is saved spelling offensive as "affensive". Truly*(you added an L,a waste of time according to you). And no, i have the small amount of motivation needed so spell things correctly when writing stuff. I'm sorry for being smarter than you,and i forgive you. Especially if it takes you that much longer to type out "everyone".

[xzeater666x]

wow you cant stfu can you? im done reply if you want im not responding D:

[tw1sta]

Omg you actually didn't misspell anything. Gold star champ!

[Jebochi]

I wish I could hear MORE FUCKING OFF IT AND LESS OF YOU MUMBLING RANDOM SHIT. Thank you.

[blackberrydude1]

im able to get randy rhoads exact tone from Mr. Crowley live and recorded on with that pedal, 5 stars

[MetallicaManJames123]

is it my computer or is the picture shitting it self in this vid....

[xzeater666x]

the vid xD

[DunfermlineParkour]

lol. "I haven't even played with the knobs yet" jaja

=D

[Darklordbrink]

Ok, I have a Metal Core, but I just got interested in the Metal Zone. Is the metal zone better than the metal core in sound quality, gain, and variety?

[LethalODofficial]

ok well oviously both are very metal pedals

but like the metal ZONE is more twequabul and alot lighter compared... people say its more of the lead version

and the metal CORE is ALOT of low and high its like for your thick THIIIICK RHYTHM stuff like really just... thick low end over the top...

but really both are awesome ive messed with both and like em heaps

really u have to mess with them yourself and decide for your self

check out local music stors see if they have any

[KG739]

can sum1 tell me sum good settings for this pedal? i am looking for a bullet for my valentine kind of sound

[leontan92]

lol i can hire this guy to open my box for me the next time

[Phailure365]

if you have a marshell 1/2 stack you dont need a dist pedal. the end

[ViLLZzZz]

he`s making a review ...

[Phailure365]

i am aware of that kind sir.

[PaulProGuitar]

can you play grunge music with this pedal? and if it is so can someone tell me how to adjust it.

[Phailure365]

no. for grunge i would go with a DS-1

[youknowyourrite1]

psh,don't listen to this guy.just listen to the video.that pedal is fucking hella dirty,which is perfect for grunge.

[PaulProGuitar]

thanks dude. i have this pedal and you are fucking right! Its perfect for grunge cause of the dual gain thing.

[Gomagomes]

i used to play some grunge tones when i had it, i can't remember well, but one good setting i used were bass on 3 o'clock, high on 9, both mids at 4

[TheBoss90011]

is this good for death metal?

is it better then the heavy metal hm2?

[Gomagomes]

yes, the heavy metal don't have the same ammount of gain that mt2 have. i would also recommend you the boss metal core

[DBOEvilCondomn]

is it good for extreme metal?

like children of bodom, as i lay dying, lamb of god and this kind of stuff generally? answer plz

[VANHALENPOOP2]

this pedal is good for all types of metal our hard rock this pedal rules i bought its a week ago

[Guitarism21]

eh its alright i have one and it usually does the trick but is hissy when your playing turned up loud, it can do most styles of metal, have a look at the ML-2 i think it will probably suit you better.

[akukami91]

I bought this pedal yesterday...and im loving it..

[uberandy666]

is this good for a metallica sound? :D

[megadeth55555]

old metallica YES

[anutoldlegend89]

What's the adaptor used for.

[Dimefan91]

The adapter runs the pedal so you don't have to be constantly buying batteries. Another problem is with batteries, once the batter starts to die, the sound begins to fade and get crappier.

[Teutonic1250]

Does this have a fat distortion sound? Like a mesa boogie tube thype sound?

[afox8520]

i have it and its puts out a shit ton of distortion but you have to mess with the setting a lot until u get that sound u want

[ericponsv]

Yup and also Marshall

[Dimefan91]

It does if you have good pickups and a decent amp. You have to fool around with the EQ but yeah, I get a similar Mesa sound with it through a solid state amp.

[Setri123]

there's a good setting that I use with a Ibanez Rg321MH wich is :level+ 2,3 hours ; Low : 3 hours ; High : 3.30;mid: 10.30 and mid frequency 1.15.Gain must be high,but doesn't matter how much,I guess.with the key in teh center position,it gives me a dry tone,with some cut lows but cut middles too,while the bridge position boosts both.

[louiscfc93]

is ther a pedal that is like the hm-2 (dont say ye the hm-2).im not giving some guy in japan $80 for one on ebay coz it prob wouldnt turn up and neither would my money

[ericponsv]

Is is good for fast shredding?

[Davert]

I'm between this pedal and vox satchurator which one should I get?

[Stopthecrash]

Personally, I've only tried the metal zone, metalcore, and the Digitech Hardwire TL-2 Metal Distortion and out of all I picked the Digitech Hardwire TL-2 Metal Distortion. For sound and quality reasons for me, bu I should insist you check out the TL-2 pedal. But I have yet to try the Vox Satchurator but I'd probably still stay with the TL-2. Remember that this is my choice and recommendation, pick whichever one suits your style and affordability - GL!

~ STC

[Davert]

Thanks a lot! I'll check them...

[stewie9793]

It depends what you want. The satchurator is a vintage distortion with a good bit of mids. The metal zone is much heavier, tighter, and more flexible.

[MetalDude218]

hey there wasnt a battery on mines when i got it

[StratocasterMaster3]

If only he would smile

[swishitjoey]

5:26, not really losing too much sustain or distortion..... then why does it sustain for about 2 seconds and there's next to no gain? hahaha.. gearwire

[remaxannette]

it looks like hes looking at like he has no idea how to work it. haha

[rockonmady]

in a nut shell, this pedal is pretty shit,

[lolugaru]

stupid noob the guy of the video

[JacksonShredie666]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA 2:38

[SamTalmadge]

omg no one cares about the fucking manual

[remaxannette]

haha right.

[schl0tte]

sounds like shit

[yahhh1466]

can you play devil wears prada with this?

[joaobritovzky]

yes you can. i play a lot of metal and deathcore with this pedal

[a7xbatman33]

absolutely not. it's forbidden in the instruction manual.

[xdevlwrspradax]

hahahaha nice

[berni907]

Why would you want to play any anyways? they're so shiiit

[TheGameHooligan]

hey thats a cool effect pedal but can you play Metallica One with it??

[OscarPetersson]

Of course! I have have one of these, and it works out really good!

[berni907]

You can play ANY song with it. won't necessarily  sound amazing though

Nah, if you have the right settings on, you can do anything

[joechucas]

Why the hell do they go through opening the box everytime... oh wow, another box. I'm sure to buy this product.

[ian5341]

bahahahah yeh true
