Members metronumb Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 A couple of suggestions - take the $300 and: 1) Sell your current SS amp head (value est. $150) Then buy a used Peavey Ultra head 2) Buy a Crate GX1300 head for about $150 used Bank the $150 savings 3) Buy a Zoom HL-01 for about $70 used Buy a new Analogman chorus - 4) Buy a Keeley modded Metal Zone for $125 Buy a ISP Decimator for $125 Bank the $50 or buy a cheap eq 5) Buy a Zoom 5000 for about $125 Bank the $175 6) Buy the entire Zoom analog series for $300 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jacek Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 Buy the Damage Control Demonizer...then buy $12 worth of Tung-Sol tubes to replace the base lower-gain EHX tubes. Take 5 minutes to replace them (circuit is self biasing...just open the case, swap the tubes, you're done). What you get is an all-tube hi-gain monster (both preamp and power amp distortion, not to mention direct output with cabinet emulation). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ChuckNorris1982 Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 I can't see it being any better or worse than the Keeley modded Metal Zone. if you must have a pedal like that, buy the (much cheaper) keeley and spend the rest on other toys!

Members SUPER VELCROBOY Posted November 14, 2007 Members Share Posted November 14, 2007 if you are going to spend $300 for a specialty pedal, then you might as well use that money to invest in a better amp. Pedals are just tools. A good amp is so much more important than any pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must admit a good amp and good speakers and probably good tubes too, has done more for my tone then any pedal, or pickup even....but I dunno, I don't want to sound 'metal' anyway.

Members L6Sguy Posted November 15, 2007 Members Share Posted November 15, 2007 i love how folks think that owning an all tooooob amp is the end all and be all of all gear needs, like with just that, every sonic tonic could be served. how does one explain gilmour? or gibbons? those guys wouldnt need all those stupid dirt pedals if they'd just settle down with a good valve amp, i guess. sounds much more important calling it valves, too. my amps' tones improved four-fold at least, once i started calling the tubes valves. i think a good setup and a set of graphite saddles should be tops on the list. then a set of lower-gain pups.
