Got my dream Distortion!!!

Yea, now I will rule
This pedal is sweet a lot better then the current boss or any pedal I have found so far for death metal.

I've always wanted to find the one boss pedal I like. I almost bought that HM-2.... I was curious even though I don't play metal.

[tigerdriver]

ha, i pulled mine out today! i have a few of them, since one day people will wake up to how good they are.

[Gunner Recall]

As a rule of thumb I avoid any pedal with the word "metal" in it, though I've heard good things about the hm-2.

If the emma pisdiyauwot doesn't live up to the hype I may look into a hm-2.

[tigerdriver]

it's probably worthless for metal....but if you keep the eq fairly flat and the gain low, it's a GREAT overdrive. the only problem is lack of volume. I modded one to make it louder but it didn't sound as good.

also, it plays very well with the more trebly DE pedals, either before or after them.

[Ghost Hip]

anyone have an idea how the HM-3 "Hyper Metal" compares to this?

[sev]

I've read that David Gilmour uses one.
Good enough for Dave....

Always wanted one for bass for that Godflesh-y tone. If anyone wants to get rid of one for cheap...

Hyper metal has more vol and a bit punchier sound.

I am the opposite, I have an odd fascination with "metal" pedals. So far I only have 2, a Heavy Metal and a Super American Metal.

DOD FX56B it is the American Metal with an added bass control that can really beef up the sound. The distortion by itself is good if not a little generic sounding kinda trashy kinda punky distortion but the bass is what makes it a little more special. It can really give it extra oomph. Again though I am a big fan of "metal" pedals and some of the older dods so it might not be all that special, but I thought it was $35 well spent on ebay.

Jerry Garcia used one as well.

1st pedal I ever bought, still have it
