  • Pedal fo da metal

    Hey everyone. Got a pedal question. Been loving my buddy's Egnater Vengeance, and really like the 6105 combos I've heard. Is there a pedal that can get me into that area, and keep it sounding "organic" so to speak? The amp I'd be using is a 71 Univox bass head. It is just a clone of a four input non-master Marshall. Also, out of the three cabs I own, which to get into that area. H&K Triamp cab loaded with Greenbacks, H&K Triamp cab loaded with G12H30/V30 X pattern, or Earcandy Buzzbomb with Splawn small blocks?

    Or.....fuggedaboutit?
    My songs....enjoy! (hopefully )

    I'd look into the Weehbo line of pedals. I had a JMP drive and while it didn't have quite enough gain for that style, I pulled of Pantera with it and it sounded pretty good. The 3 band eq and the mids selector switch made it capable of a wide range of JMP tones, and it was one of the most organic sounding pedals I've ever had. I only sold it because I got an Egnater SW-45 that sounded better than the pedal into my 68 Bassman, but if I hadn't got the Engater I'd still have the Weehbo.

      Wampler trirec is hard to beat for these tones imo. Amptweaker tight metal is another very insane one.

          Honestly you can get very good modern metal tones from a standard marshall in a box pedal stacked with an od, you could literally pick anyone and with the right od it will do a nice modern metal tone....

          I was ****ing around with my uncle's purple plexi with my deadhorse a few weeks ago and was shocked at some of the tones I could get....

                      Check out the Keeley Stahlhammer. Played one today and found it very versatile and amp-like.

                        Holy crow! Thank yoooooou! I've never heard of half these pedals, and I love researching gear. So far, I'm liking the Ogre Thunderclap and the AMR R1 a lot. Still have a few more to listen to. Found an interesting vid on youtube where a Russian dude is comparing the R1 to a Boogie dual rec. Alone, I think the Boogie sounds infinitely better, but in a mix, I actually like them both the same. Just a little different sound, but I actually prefer the R1. Of course, he's speaking Russian, so I don't know how the amp is set up for the R1, but it sounds badamps.

                        Here it is.
                        Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

                              I just looked these up and saw they had a 2 version of all the pedals as well. Why aren't these more well known and are some of the best sounding dirt/preamp pedals i've heard. I was looking into the Wampler Tri rec but I think ill get one of these now.
