MXR Fullbore Metal M116

Pure filth ... if you are any kind of metal player, this is the pedal you want

Gabby loves it best peddle he’s ever bought

If you want a bone crushing guitar sound with the density of a black hole, then this is the pedal for you. Subtlety isn’t on the menu here.

Use this for my guitar and bass through a 5w tube, the distortion on this thing makes me want to punch people in the face. It's awesome! Pretty good in terms of dynamics too. However be warned this thing does nothing less than extreme.

The pedal itself is presumably good. Unfortunately I can't use it since it does not actually have a 9V battery compartment anywhere inside the pedal. I do not own the correct power supply either. This pedal does NOT support batteries and is very poorly marketed. The manual which came with the pedal also touts that there is a 9V slot when the back plate is removed. Again, this is not true.

Real metal is distorting guitar sounds the most gentle beast is doing. Users are advised not to ride the gain to the maximum. Sincerely, Karoly Gacs

Truly a masterpiece pedal here by Dunlop. I'm a huge nu metal player and this caters for that perfectly. If your a player you downtunes and is partial to lots of palm muting mayhem then I strongly recommend this being in your collection. However I recommend playing this through a good amp. :D

I really love distortion pedals and I really love metal. It's rare that I find a distortion pedal that I don't like - although I like some better than others obviously. Over the last 5 years I've owned easily 30 different distortion pedals or more. Some I've sold and others are keepers. I've wanted to buy this Fullbore Metal pedal for at least a couple of years and I finally did last week. It was shocking how awful it sounded. I tried it in my amp's input, I tried it going straight into the return. I spent 30 minutes trying to get even an acceptable sound out of it but it was impossible. All I can say is that it's shocking how bad this sounds. Burzum would hear this distortion and think it sounds too unmusical and has too much treble. There's nothing good I can say about it at all other than it has a gate which works but it just sounds terrible. I really wanted to like it and I really tried to dial it in to an acceptable sound but it was not possible. I honest think this is the worst distortion I've ever used and I would recommend that everyone stay away from it.

Tenía un berinher um y al usar este noté la diferencia más agresiva y pesada en el sonido de una guitarra barata merece la pena invertir en este

Es un excelente pedal, tiene mucha ganancia (para algunos podría ser demasiado) y a pesar de ser exclusivo para Metal sounds incluye una gama amplia de sonidos, por lo que puede ser difícil ecualizarlo al principio.

Ich habe einen Vergleichstest mit 7 anderen gut bewerteten Verzerrern gemacht um meinen Favouriten auszuwählen und kann nur sagen: Dieser ist mein persönlicher Testsieger und zwar mit Abstand. Das hat einen einfachen Grund: Viele andere Verzerrer, zB. der Jackhammer und andere tragen zwar auch starke Namen, bringen aber eine ordentlich Hardrock- oder Metalverzerrung meist nur bei Vollanschlag der Regler. Da ist aber kein Spielraum mehr für eine Abstimmung auf den persönlichen Geschmack. Nach dem Motto: Wer eine ordentliche Verzerrung will, dreht alle Regler auf. Das wäre aber beim Fullbore tödlich. Für die für meinen Geschmack fette Zerre habe ich beim Fullbore manche Regler nicht mal zur Hälfte offen. Und das ist der herausragende Vorteil dieses Pedals: Du hast immer genügend Luft nach oben offen, für NOCH MEHR Metal, noch mehr Bässe, noch mehr Höhen, wie Dus brauchst. Die Klangregelung ist hervorragend. Gerade untenrum liefert der Fullbore wesentlich mehr Druck als die Kontrahenten! Das Noisegate? Funktioniert einfach ohne Nachzudenken. Fazit: Mit dem Teil kannst Du Dir so ziemlich jeder Metalsound basteln, den Du brauchst. No limits. Alle Möglichkeiten. Und nach oben sind keine Grenzen gesetzt! Äh, nein, ich arbeite nicht für Dunlop. Aber das Teil geb ich nicht mehr her. Das ist jeden Cent wert.

思った通りの音が出てものすごく感動しています。定価2万が半額の約1万で買えたので非常に満足でした！！！

Ottimi i tempi di spedizione e l'imballaggio. Di per sé il pedale è veramente ottimo, costa non poco, ma è un bel prodotto e quindi li vale quei soldi. Mi dilungherei in una recensione più lunga, però c'è chi ne sa più di me di dati tecnici e altro. In generale posso dire un paio di cose che ritengo utili, in quanto sono informazioni che nelle mie ricerche pre acquisto non ho trovato. Prima di tutto è interessante il pulsante del gate, che in pratica funge da noise suppressor e, oltre a svolgere il proprio compito in maniera eccellente, rimane attivo se il pedale è spento (cioè, se avete la chitarra collegata al pedale col gate accesso e il pedale, spento, è collegato all'amplificatore, allora il gate sarà comunque in funzione). Il pulsante dello scoop non crea un bel suono (a mio parere), in quanto tende a renderlo troppo metallico, quasi finto e poco chiaro. Però magari basta solo regolare un po' i medi e il potenziometro "freq" che indica quali frequenze medie vengono tagliate. Come ultima cosa voglio dire che i vari suoni che ho sperimentato col pedale si adattano bene a band come: obscura, job for a cowboy, fallujah, beyond creation, us rust, decapitated, soreption... Sconsiglio l'acquisto a chi intende suonarci generi che richiedono una distorsione più calda, come rock, blues e derivati. Lo consiglio invece caldamente a chi vuole suonarci metal, soprattutto metal estremo (death metal, technical, brutal, ecc ecc) o comunque a chi vuole suonarci band come quelle dette sopra o simili.
