GUYATONE FLIP MM-X METAL MONSTER.
Who says metal is dead? It seems that heavy music has once again taken
the world by storm, only a few short years after all the "experts" said
that it was a dying fad. The rebirth of heavy music marks a renewed
interest in super-saturated guitar tones, brutal drop-tuned riffs and
bone-crushing rhythms.
The key to keeping these chainsaw chops
razor sharp is the "scooped-mid" guitar tone - crank your low-end,
boost your highs, and turn down those mids and you've got it. To
achieve this, you need a distortion device that offers complete control
over the entire tonal range.
That's why you need the Guyatone
MM-X Metal Monster. The MM-X is the absolute last word in high gain
distortion devices. It offers gobs of grinding gain and singing sustain
that were previously unattainable without the use of the most powerful
tube amplifiers at full-bore volume.
The Metal Monster's
hybrid tube/solid state distortion circuit yields everything from
subtle overdrive to extreme saturation worthy of the blackest black
metal band. Its Three-stage EQ section allows for precise control over
all frequency bands, with a parametric midrange that covers the "sweet
spot" between 200-5kHz. The MM-X's controls allow for an unlimited
variety of brutal tones, including the trademark "scooped mids" made
famous by bands like Metallica and Pantera.
If other distortions just aren't enough, try the MM-X on for size!

HARMONY CENTRAL USER REVIEWS:
Sound Quality: 10
I
was blown away from the tone. Great articulation, HEAVY heavy sound,
screaming leads loaded with harmonics, great saturated sound. Anyone
that thinks you can't get a fat distoted metal tone from just one tube
really needs to get their head examined. This pedal is now defining my
tone. You can get any sound from heavy blues to great fat solid
articulated distorions the way they would sound on some very boutique
amps. All I can say is that this pedal is a great sound for
classic heavy metal, 80's hair band, heavy rock music. This pedal to me
sounds like a Peavey 5150 in a pedal form. No joke! Buy one!
Sound Quality: 10
I
play mostly Black/Death metal and hardcore. I can get the most ass
kicking sound out of this pedal, I have owned the Boss Metalzone and
the DOD Death metal distortion and I can honestly say they are nothing
compared to this. You get huge chunk in the lower ends and screaming
highs.
Overall Rating: 10
This
is the best distortion pedal I have ever played on, if it were lost or
stolen I would deffinetly buy another one. This is the sound I have
been searching for!

Wow,
this little kitten hasn't stolen its name! It's metal and metal all the
way. It can go from Gothic sounds to death to that utra harsh hardcore
sound. The Frequency knob plays a great deal in the sound, so you must
master that first. I think the tube built inside makes the Metal
Monster sound a little warmer than the other metal style pedals.
