Metal pedal shootout # 2: ProValve, Triple Wreck, Tube Zone and PisdiYAUwot

ProValve, Triple Wreck, Tube Zone and PisdiYAUwot battle it out. The ESP Stef-T7 is the catalyst once again, although this time it's tuned E through to low B.

Let the games begin!

hey great vid, im really interested in the triplewreck, i play a strat sss and i play mostly metallica/tool/mastodon stuff would this be a good choice for me, i want to add some beef to the single coils

[Burgerman666]

@hendrix184 Not sure about singles with the might TW. I personally go for humbuckers with it because the gain is so ferocious the noise floor might be a little much. You can crank the mids, though, and it will sound OK.

I would like to see the same comparison with the Blackstar HD DIST-X replacing the Provalve. The Blackstar is more inline with the others and is far more brootalz than the Lovepedal, IMO. It might even win.

[Burgerman666]

@twistedH3L1X I've requested a demo unit from Blackstar and they haven't so much as replied despite several emails. So if that's indicative of their customer service..

tone freak severe and suhr riot please dude

thx ^^

[Burgerman666]

@wabwabb I'd love to, but neither company has come forward and I ain't buying anymore pedals (or I'll get thrown out of home!) :)

[TheUnclesidandthegay]

Deftones....hell yeah buddy!

[copperkrone]

Of course any pedal/amp can sound good at low volumes, but when the amp and pedal are pushed at full volume...thats the real test.

Is the gain still useable?, does the tone just break up?, or do these pedals enhance full playing volume?

I use the pisdiYAUwot through my modified triple rectifier, emgs, and ltdec401, and the sound is phenominal at cranked volumes~

@DoucheCake76 indeed about the mic placement! and also love your name! that is some sick shit! haha!

[lzmiranda]

I love you for this vid.

[CarvinTone]

Wampler is a great pedal and can do far more than just this mode of playing. They have several models in high gains as well as some amazing ODs. Check out Bugermans demos of Wampler. Strat guy, Wampler is your deal, thick and the boost puts it over the top.

[DoucheCake76]

Finally someone who know's about mic placement! Excellent job!

[MGBoy100334]

Burg, would you say that the MI Audio Tubezone is capable of any Boogie-type Mark Series tones? I'm looking for a pedal that could closely approximate the Mark IV, specifically the Petrucci timbre. Thanks in advance!

@Burgerman666

I wrote the Blackstar people too, asking if they'd ever release anything new for metal, if they'd maybe consider a hand wired metal distortion pedal/unit. The wrote back, but just to tell me they'd never do anything unique.

I'd get a Dist-X used for $100.00, replace the tube. The pedal is a one trick pony though, only the British side sounds good. You get one heavy mean metal tone, crap eq, only one sound, no scooped mids even. They aren't innovators over there, they're dolts!

[deadheadshaman]

hey man when you max out the gain on the tubezone and set your amp to a gigging volume do you get a terrible fat unmusicle feedback from it? Mine does it all the time buty none of these demos ever seem to do it. wondering if my pedals stuffed

[CatastrophicG]

wow, great heavy sounds! especially the triple wreck and provalve ped great!! which amp do you play here? which settings?

[MrJackrockerman]

tubezone much more organic..triple wreck sound too much compression..it can suck ur tone during at stage with band.pro valve sound good too..more like Dimebag.
