      Boss Metal Zone doesn’t suck
      I had the Waza Craft (version)
      It was ok but it works better if u have it plugged into the send/return effects loops 🔁 in the back of the head tube amplifiers over all it’s heavy but it’s kind of tricky to use 😅
      Boss Metal Core sounds just fine the way it is once it’s plugged into the amp everything is at 12 o’ clock 😎

    The first distortion pedal I bought almost 20 years ago, sold it a couple of months later, as it was not "heavy enough" back then. Got a new one recently, using a Fender Tele and a Marshall to make it sing, and I couldn't be happier with the tone. Amazing pedal, has a timeless tone character that is part of the music history, and it's always going to be there on many pedalboards for generations to come. Long live the DS-1!

    If your using single coils with this pedal you are gonna have a hard time getting a warm tome regardless wether you are using a tube or solid state amp. That's not because the pedal is bad, it's because the coils have a naturally bright single. Since this is a very bright terribly sounding pedal I feel it goes best with humbucking pickups, or any pickups that reduce noise in general.

  • @VinceDSkates
    @VinceDSkates Před 11 lety +2

    I played a 2000 Mexican made Fender Strat through one of these. You could either go really heavy or get a nice cleanish distortion tone with single coils.

    at the minute 0:40 0:42 0:45 please what is that first chord? is that a double-stop on 2nd and 3rd strings only or is a trichord on first three strings? I do not figure out if you hitting any note on the 1st string too, or not. Or maybe did you hitting just the first two string? Thanks. Cool riff btw.

      @bryerpoulin5208 Před 8 lety +2

      If you're going for their distortion tone, your best bet is to get a good amp. Most distortion pedals like the metalzone or deathmetal type pedals sound horrible.

    For me the tone of this pedal depends very much on which amp it's being put through. Solid state and it sounds awful. Tube amp and it sounds great.
