Carrying features identical to the TightRock, the darker and fatter FatRock Distortion Pedal is the culmination of insights from players who asked for a variation of TightRock. The FatRock version’s tone was tweaked to extend the Tone and Tight controls’ low range. The EQ switch provides classic vintage stack tones while the Gain Boost switch produces a very modern amount of gain. With both switches turned off, you can use the pedal as a fat overdrive for an already distorted pedal/amp, without drastically altering the character.

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 Blackstar HT-METAL distortion pedal lets you plug into untamed, high-gain metal tones. If you want molten-hot tones that maintain definition and dynamics, the HT-Metal’s high 300-volt operation and cascaded valve gain stages will surely satisfy your metal cravings. Two channels allow you to select the ideal pair of distortion settings, and Blackstar’s patented infinite shape feature (ISF) and three-band EQ enable powerful tone shaping. The speaker-emulated output allows you to connect the HT-Metal directly to a recording device or sound system for a seamless way to achieve a good sound.
