Playing the Boss MD-2....like a BOSS!! (Sorta..)

Giving the ol' Boss MD-2 Mega Distortion a whack.....using the Digitech Whammy to down-tune it to D Standard, to accentuate the pedals' Low-range boost...

The Gear:

Ibanez GRG170DX
Ibanez MIMX 65-watt Combo, "Jazz Clean" Channel
Digitech Whammy (used as a Pitch Shifter, in this case)
Boss CS-3 Compression Sustainer
Boss MD-2 Mega Distortion

God that was awful sounding.

[ZaKaTaKofSteel]

True, twas a bit thrown together, and the "pitch shift" dealie I did sounded kinda weird too.

Boss CS-3 And MD-2, and Whammy, is a kick ass equipment, nice.

[ZaKaTaKofSteel]

You got that right!! \m/

[diegodevilman]

What nº of strings you use ? 009 or 010?

[ZaKaTaKofSteel]

I've been using the 10-13-17-26-36-46 D'Addario setup for some time now, actually.

Never tried a .009 though, I'd like to see what thats all about sometime.

sounds like playin thro a cheap radio

[mmetec]

What the fuck was that....

@jacobgp1 Better yet, it would sound even more awesome on an 8-string.

@harvickfan82479 you can control the tension of strings of any gauge ...and should your neck has to be set up to a specific gauge to be right.

[matadragones22]

one word: metronome

[TheSlipknotcult]

@ZaKaTaKofSteel .009 is nice dude.... go for it

[jacobgp1]

This thing would sound awsome on a 7-string

[harvickfan82479]

@ZaKaTaKofSteel dont waste your time on using 9s they suck balls 10 or 11 is the only way to go if u use 9s and tune it down at all they get pretty loose

[pearljaime2]

pretty cool this is my favorite boss distortion pedal. pretty good for crunching lows
