Description

The Boss ML-2 Metal Core Effects Pedal finally offers the grinding thick distortion that is so necessary for metal. Many metal distortion pedals simply offer an excessive amount of gain and slap the metal moniker on the pedal- not the ML-2. This pedal has been designed with the sole intention of being heavier and fatter than any distortion pedal previously and that includes more than just increasing the gain. The tone and attack of the whole pedal has been shaped to be razor sharp to cut through even the most congested mix with ease the tone control is incredibly responsive however and its possible to dial this back all the way for sludgier doomier tones. Of course the ML-2 does have gain on tap and can get ridiculously hot at higher levels but its the attention given to the rest of the design being tailored just to metal players and heavier musical styles that makes the ML-2 so special
