With its extreme gain, the ML-2 is the most potent and heavy distortion pedal ever created by BOSS. It easily delivers massive distortion and gain with heavy lows for playing Nu Metal, Grind Core, Industrial, Hard Core, or any genre that requires crushing sound. The ML-2's ferocious and biting tone will complement and cut through any blast beats your rhythm section can create.

The new road-tough ML-2 offers ultra-heavy distortion with a sharp-edged attack. A LOW control provides a heavy low frequency sound a la 7-string guitar or dropped tuning while the HIGH control gives you a screaming, metallic tone.

YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

finally, the pedal to complete my sound. no longer will the metal zone be the center of my tone. long live the metal core!

gay

my metal zone and $300 amp sounds better than most people's rigs, imo

i shall beg to differ.

i would rather hear a spider II halfstack than a metalzone through anything.

now that's harsh dude

i like to think i dial the tone in right, for whatever reason it sounds a lot warmer through my amp than i've heard through any other

I might buy that pedal just for the chasis and stick sonic maximizer pedal guts inside it so it will match my pedal board.

I hope to god this is a joke.

Yup. Line 6 + EMGs = about as gross as you need to be.

is this a 5150 in a box or something?

hahaha i thought this was gonna be a joke

Metallica will probably endorse this on their next album

why did they have to call it "metal core"?
if i get this i will cross that name out and put a slayer sticker on it.

the thing is, I bet this would probably be a good boost pedal if it didn't say metalcore on it.

if it sounds good i will probably buy it....
they don't have a sound demo up on the site yet.

I imagine it's something like the metalzone, but with better EQ shaping, and a tiny bit more gain.

haha ZING!

I think I might have to buy a pedals with genre names on them just for the hell of it.

BOSS Metal Core
BOSS Metal Zone
BOSS Blues Driver
DigiTech Grunge Distortion Pedal
DigiTech Death Metal Distortion Pedal

You get the idea. Where's my Tech Metal or Grindcore pedals?

i have the dod grunge pedal.... it worked nice.
i think digitech took over most of dod's pedals

get some sandpaper and scratch out the core.

If you want a grindcore pedal, buy a solid state crate head.

whooooops, somebody missed the trend by about 6 months!

wow, i really thought was going to be a joke thread too.

BTW, Steve, the Blues Driver is a great boost pedal.

Is there a Boss Powerviolence pedal (PV-1) that sounds like a fart getting choked by a zombie?

If this came out in 99 I probably would have been all over it.

I'd rather use the distortion straight from a Dual Superlead or 5150 than use a pedal, not to mention I bet that thing is gonna be the same exact thing as the metalzone.

Actually, digitech owns DOD, that's why they came out with the same line of pedals. I personally think they still suck.

It comes with a commando hat and a child size GUNS N ROSES shirt.

Piss off, Josh! I use a 5150 and detest 'MeTaL KoRe'!
