Members therhodeo Posted May 19, 2006 Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 Looking for a good higher gain distortion to do a more 80's metal sound. Which one would you recommend? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TIKILOCKEDOUT Posted May 19, 2006 Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 I've got the original Guvnor MK-1 blackbox version ... if you get that you can't go wrong.Thats the one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members therhodeo Posted May 19, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 Anyone else? Is the guvnor hard to get dialed in with all the EQ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members inang Posted May 19, 2006 Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 just got the guvnor recently for $5- australian $ that's like $30 US.... beautifull pedal...not for 80's metal though....just for crunch sound EQ may look intimidating, but it's not really that confusing, just normal EQ....but it would always have this sweet midrange to it.

Members therhodeo Posted May 19, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 Anybody actually played the crushzone? I know its fairly knew but I figured it'd be fairly popular if it was any good especially for the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members TIKILOCKEDOUT Posted May 19, 2006 Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 Quite right ... I misread you wanted higher gain metal ... that's not the Guvnor! The Guvnor does a JCM 800 vibe. Can't comment on the other pedal ... If I were you I would look at Mike's Tube Zone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members therhodeo Posted May 19, 2006 Author Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 I might look into both. The price is pretty good for them and I need a good marshall sound anyway so I might end up keeping them both. How is the bypass on the Guvnor?

Members TIKILOCKEDOUT Posted May 19, 2006 Members Share Posted May 19, 2006 Bypass is fine - never given me any problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
