Worst? C'mon, this pedal is a legend :) Many guitarists started with it, and if you want some "dirty" sound, MT-2 is exactly that what do you need. This song confirms it.

[BelarisRainey]

You know, the thing with the bad reputation of the metal zone is that people don't know how to use it. If done properly this pedal is a killer. Doesn't matter how many pedals I try, I always come back to my metal zone because it's the only one that sounds exactly the way I want it to be ❤🔥🤘🏻

I’ve been using the metal zone since I was 17 and I’m 41 now. I’ve tried other distortion pedals but there is something about the sound that has kept it as my only distortion. I love it

[LadyAxe]

I love my MZ. Don't give a shit what the"experts" say, because of all the pedals I've tried, it is the only one that gives me exactly what I want --- that old school grit with a great low end and the raw-ness of the old days.

I was convinced by Ola's vid that the Metal Zone pedal can actually produce stellar tones if run through the FX loop

[Kipperbob]

The problem with the Metal Zone is that it's crap when you go through it into the front of the amp, it's a whole different animal when you plug in in through the effects loop.

[DenisLeskovar]

I played in band once, and I had no money for electric guitar, but I got some multieffect from BOSS. I played accoustic guitar with distortion for quite some time, and I still think this is one of the most underrated combos in guitar world.

[ubmastering]

That sounds really good. Gives the song a perfect feel.

[Robsonalmeida]

This pedal is simply great. How is it possible people don't like it?

[jrrlovecraft]

I've had a Metal Zone (original circuit - Waza is a bit different) since the 90s, and what fools a lot of people is it clips the midrange before and after the signal, much like a preamp. In fact, sometimes the best sound for a Metal Zone is to use it as a preamp - plug the Metal Zone output into the "line in" or "loop return" jack instead of the amp input and use the Metal Zone as its own preamp. The amp you use it with (and it's own settings) also makes a huge difference. Great video!

[RGMyers]

The worst, the best... I never think in terms of absolutes because there is no such thing in life. I have a metal zone and although I rarely use it because there are certainly many superior options, it is far from deserving such a superlative. Objects don't change, what changes is our view or perspective of them. You gave it a chance and discovered something you weren't expecting, those finds are the best!

[GuitarLessonsBobbyCrispy]

That was my very first guitar effects pedal ever! Way back in the 80's when I was a teen. Sounded pretty cool through the cheap amp ( Harmony ) I was playing through. Really fuzzy sounding but did the job for a 16 year old starting out on heavy metal guitar.

Прекрасный звук, очень неожиданное применение) Красивая композиция, поздравляю с релизом!
МT-2 моя любимая педаль, рад был её увидеть на канале)

[howardthrust]

Very effective presentation, B! You put the words in writing...and let the Music do the "TALKING"! Boss pedals tend to work best through a "clean" amp or PA (i.e. the "TONE" is IN THE PEDAL; critics don't understand this). I'm still finding wonderful uses for my ME-50 (which HAS essentially the "MZ" function in the "OD/Dist." section), and my V-WAH (which I use on a different pedal board). Where would we be without Ikutaro Kakehashi's efforts?

[biswajitmahapatra]

Such a beautiful sound as well as composition! Really an odd combination, acoustic and distortion pedals.
People say its the worst pedal but I really like that thick sound it produces.
Also, is it just me or the instinctive reach for the whammy bar at 1:19 is just so nice and funny to watch
Love your videos as always!

[voxterh.]

The metal zone really shines through when plugged into the fx loop. The main "issue" with the pedal is how sensitive the eq knobs are, but taking some time to make small adjustments will get you a killer tone.

[bustercherry]

Nothing wrong with the metal zone. People just don't know how to set it. Just watch Ola Englund's video on the metal zone. He tried it thinking it was gonna be shit but ended up loving it.

[fadlyhans]

Fizzy, can of bees and etc;.. this was what experts reviews I’ve read. I was lucky to be introduced to this pedal when I was young trying to jam to Metallica. Never bought one cause it was too expensive for me at that time. After a while, I was lost in the world of overdrives listening and watching reviews of overdrives and distortion. Bought tube amps and other overdrives to get the tones I’ve favoured. Just 3-4 months ago, bought the MT-2W and that was it. Now I’m plugged into it with my SC20H in the low input and boosted with the Rocket Fuel from Majik Box if I can’t turn that little beast up. Don’t hesitate, get one of these as part of your arsenal. Take your time tuning those eq knob.

[BataraKado]

its only the worst distortion pedal because the people who thought it was bad didnt know how to use equipment at all in the first place.
KNOW YOUR GEAR.

[killnoni]

I’m not sure if this is a compliment or an insult :d
