www.ProGuitarShop.com - Homebrew Electronics FMJ Full Metal Jacket Distortion Pedal
The Homebrew Electronics FMJ Full Metal Jacket Distortion Pedal is a simple, yet effective distortion pedal. Adds all the gain, sustain and output you could want without affecting the tone of your guitar or amp. Even order harmonics, JFET based construction, produces a distortion similiar to over driven pre-amp tubes.
Homebrew Electronics FMJ Full Metal Jacket Distortion Pedal * Input-Instrument in. Unplug when not in use to conserve battery life. * Out-Out to amp * 9VDC Jack-for use with - (Negative) center, -9VDC, filtered, and regulated power supply. * Gain-Varies the amount of distortion. Higher settings may cause noise. * Level -Varies the amount of output. Capable of driving an amp in to saturation. Sounds best when ran a little above unity. (Louder with the pedal on) * Tone -Varies the amount of treble or bass. Output is increased with higher settings. Suggest setting it as flat as possible and using your amp's tone controls for EQ'ing * Boost-Increases the amount of distortion. Similiar to adding an extra pre-amp tube making the FMJ like a two channel tube amp. (Note: a small pop may occur when the boost is switched) * On/Off-True bypass of effect. (Note: a small pop may occur when effect is switched on/off. This is normal and is a trait associated with true bypass.)

  • what does andy not know how to play?

  • Obviously Slayer :)

  • Hey, PGS... i need help. i need to find a good pedal for Doom or sabbath style stuff, fuzz or distortion????

  • I would suggest a distortion over fuzz for tighter low end and a hard pick attack. The key to getting a dark and heavy tone is control over the midrange (usually pulled down). Have you checked out the Distortion category from our Video Library? Thanks,

    PGS

  • Fuckin Van Halen, Motorhead and Slayer. I allways go to this channel for pedal demo's, you guys are one of the best at it.

  • what an ugly pedal ......but damn , it rocks .....ftw

  • @ProGuitarShopDemos

    that's because slayer sucks (:

  • so hows the bass response on this pedal? PGS or anyone whos tried one? I favor a pretty tight distortion, so as not to muddy up palm muted low notes, but unfortunatly the "tightness" of a pedal is hard to determine via youtube...

  • @MrBubbles2K10 That´s Dead Skin Mask...

  • @PhiyukYu Yeah in the beginning, but he went on to do South of Heaven (I think) by Slayer later on. (1:56)

  • Dead Kennedys! Nice addition!

  • did i hear some rollins band?! nice one! great demos guys! im assuming you have HBE pedals for sale online?

  • no not slayer MOTORHEAD MOTORHEAD MOTORHEAD!!!!
