Griffin Effects MT-2 Metal Zone Double Distortion Demo

http://griffineffects.goshopper.net
Les Paul to the MT-2 into a Marshall JCM800 (even though the video says it's a Crate amp. It's not.)Gets rid of the nasally, digital sounding distortion. Gives it a more natural distortion sound. The EQ is very extreme now. Sorry the last half is pretty boring. I was just strumming a chord to show all the different sounds.

Hi, how is the double mod different from the death metal and lead mods on your website? Is this Bill?

Hi,

The DD mod was made to give a cleaner, less nasally distortion and the switch gives it a big boost in volume. The Lead mod was made to get more of a tube distortion type sound, and the Death Metal mod gives the pedal more clarity and, for lack of a better term, balls and really cuts through in a band situation. The Death Metal mod is my fav of the three even though I don't play death metal. It really turns it into a great pedal for a lot of different types of music.

Yes, it's me, Bill.

Hey Bill, it's me Angelo. I just came across your youtube videos and was comparing your Metal Zone mods. I saw the Death Metal demo, really has more bass response and the mids cut through very well as compared to the thin sounding stock MZ.

Hi Angelo. How are you doing? Yeah, the Death Metal mod pretty much changes it to a different pedal. It's nothing really like the stock one. Even though the mod is called Death Metal, it really gets some great low gain tones also. When I came up with this mod, I had a customer who really wanted the pedal to stand out in his band, be really heavy, and have better tone control. The Death Metal MT-2 is the only MT-2 I really like to use anymore. The other mods are good but I like the DM mod best.

Awesome. I just bought a 2203 and I'm trying to decide on a distortion pedal. This is sounding awesome.

Yeah, the modded MT-2 really cuts through the band mix now and sounds a LOT more natural. It's great with the 2203 plus there are a lot more tones/sounds you can get out of it now.

omg somebody likes crazy train lol

[GriffinEffects]

It's a 2203.

what model jcm 800 is this?

[GriffinEffects]

Thanks. Yes, it would be good for Metallica type bands. It's actually good for almost everything. It gets really heavy with the switch one way and with the other way you can get a nice crunchy overdrive-type sound.
