Marshall’s been perfecting the overdrive and distortion tones on their highly-acclaimed amps for over half a century. They’ve used that expertise to build the JH-1 Jackhammer, a versatile guitar effects pedal that packs the legendary Marshall crunch and then injects it with huge amounts of gain. You get two distinct modes; one gives you the classic crunch of the JCM 800 while the other pushes your signal into the JCM 2000’s highly saturated lead tone territory.

Bring the mids back into your heavy metal sound with the Behringer Ulta Metal UM300 Heavy Metal guitar effects pedal. The UM300 doesn’t just fill that middle-frequency-shaped hole in your tone, its dedicated Mid and Mid Frequency dials let you micromanage your mids to an insane degree; just pick a midrange frequency from 200 Hz – 5 kHz and boost or cut it by up to 15 dB either way. Add an extra layer of thick, tube-like distortion to your heavy metal tonal attack with the UM300.
The Plexi-M is a ‘60s Marshall plexi amp in stompbox form that lets you go from a warm, mild overdrive to a crunchy distortion reminiscent of a heavily cranked plexi. You can twist the Tone knob clockwise for a brighter and brighter sound and crank up the Gain knob for all the distortion you could ever want. The Plexi-M comes with true bypass and has a 100% analog signal path. This is quite possibly the cheapest reliable plexi distortion pedal you’ll ever find anywhere.
Ammoon’s DTC multi-effects unit is a budget-friendly four-in-one stompbox that combines three different effects with an effects loop function. Even if you don’t count the effects loop as an effect, the four-in-one designation still kinda works since the distortion section is actually split into two voicings: a vintage-leaning Crunch-style sound and a more modern high-gain tone based on the Riot. The DTC also comes with an overdrive section based on the TS9 Tube Screamer and a delay with a range of 25ms to 600ms.
The Amptweaker TightMetal ST Distortion Pedal takes the famed TightMetal pedal with its aggressive metal and hardcore crunch tones and incorporates Amptweaker’s proprietary SideTrak effects loop, which works only when the pedal is off. The loop lets you alternate clean effects, or a different distortion pedal, with one stomp, eradicating the stomp-box tap-dance. The TightMetal ST boasts a High/Low gain switch to choose vintage or modern metal tones. It also features a Thrash EQ switch for a deeper mid-scoop and inbuilt noise gate for extremely tight stops.
If you are in the market for a mini distortion guitar effect pedal, ammoon’s Mini Guitar Effect Pedal (Distortion) could be the one for you. The body of this compact pedal is made up of durable zinc-aluminium alloy. It supports T-turbo rat distortion and classic rat distortion. It also features an all-analog signal path, ON/ OFF LED indicator light, and three knobs you can utilize to adjust the volume, gain (Dist), and tone (Filter).
