Nano Metal Muff Distortion Pedal Review

Great pedal

I really like the in between old and new distortion sound. It's very simple to dial in your sound with the controls. My favorite feature I think is the noise gate. I can run low gain with p-90's and get rid of the noise.

Best Metal Muff

This is the best iteration of EHX's Metal Muff range. Why? Simply the gate. Sure you could buy the Silencer from the same company and get the full sized MM, but the you lose about 3 pedals worth of board space. The gate on this works really well. Try using it on a drum machine or sampler to get some interesting threshold distortion. While this does not have a top boost switch,… read more it feels as if the EQ section has enough boost and cut to achieve similar territory. It will push your signal into a nice warm saturated territory. One last note is how well this little guy stacks with other dirt boxes. It gives them a lot more go.

Great distortion pedal

This little thing is amazing. The star of the show has to be the mid nob, that things is so versatile than anyone can use this pedal to dial in their own unique tone and don't forget about the addition of the built in noise gate, not the greatest but really useful.

AMAZING! Especially for the price!

For the comments about the noise gate, being all or nothing, I'm not sure what they meant, but I think the gate is great! It is very sensitive. Your not gonna want to turn it up much. But it definitely makes a huge difference on feed back noise. And overall gives you a cleaner punch sound. As far as the actual sound of the pedal. I am a strict heavy metal shredder! Can you get a… read more better distortion pedal then this one? Yes. Can you get a better one, for under several hundred? NO! It especially shines on high notes in solos, and sweeps. It's also incredible for mid range riffing! The only negative thing I will say, it's not gonna be great for a rhythm metal guitarist. Especially if you play a lot of the metal core break down stuff. Unless you are looking for that fuzz distortion sound. For me it's perfect. I hardly ever play breakdown type riffs. Hardest part, is fine tuning a good rich clean channel to play over. I'll have the pedal set up the same, sounds perfect on one clean channel, then sound horrible on the next. Requires a lot of tweaking around with both the amp, and pedal to dial in for that sweet spot. But once you find it, it's so worth it! Definitely recommend this pedal!
