Members valvestate Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 This is little pedal is just so BroooTal! I can't imagine playing again riffs from Sepultura and Pantera. Got this from Ebay at $90 mint with box and manual! The knobs are really responsive. I noticed that the Gain knob also adds treble when you go past noon so you need to tweak the Mid and Range knob. This pedal can also do punk grunge sound if you crank the Mids and set the Gain at 9 o'clock... and I couldn't even go past 12 on the distortion or it will be total MAYHEM! This is totally worth the hype! Oh and it dead quite too! I will A/B later the EHX Metal Muff... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Kayzer Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 I tried so many High Gain Pedals and this is really one of the best! You can get a really brutal and ballshaking sound out of this one... Congrats on your new pedal... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members valvestate Posted July 31, 2008 Author Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 Congrats man How's the bypass on these zoom pedals? Thanks! Well the box says true bypass but, I doubt it. Nevertheless, even if I'm not really a metal player, this is a keeper! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Sporky McGuffin Posted July 31, 2008 Members Share Posted July 31, 2008 The bypass on 'em is fine. Hard to trace on the PCBs inside, but I'm not convinced their TB. Only an issue i you like the smell of cork, of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will never stay in my board though, just for personal chugging moments. Is there a built in noise reduction chip inside this thing? Silence is killin me...

Members giblespaul2001 Posted August 1, 2008 Members Share Posted August 1, 2008 I bought one a few years back, played it all of 10 min. boxed it back up and sold it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Agreed Posted August 1, 2008 Members Share Posted August 1, 2008 Love my Tri-Metal. Took it out of my chain today to save it for a recording project later in the year, I worry about it getting damaged or the components drifting since it's all SMD and I don't think I could fix it. Right now, the high gain pedals in my chain are: Danelectro Cool Cat MetalDanelectro DD-1 Fab ToneDanelectro Wasabi DistortionDamage Control Solid MetalZoom Tri-Metal Although anyone who has read my posts knows that there have been a lot more travelers along the way. These are all keepers, though the Cool Cat Metal and the Fab-Tone live behind a 7-band EQ to bring out their potential. The Tri-Metal is one of my all-time favorite distortion pedals, combining the potential for genuinely over-the-top gain with eerie silence and a great, MkIIC-MkIIIish dryness when configured correctly. Roll back the bass for monstrously tight bass, don't ever let the bass go above noon if you want to preserve the tone of your guitar without overpowering everything. Everything about the pedal is "less is more," it's got the capability to go beyond the pale in every direction... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
