High-gain distortion pedal with extra presence
If you want a distortion pedal for electric guitar that combines aggression and clarity, the Electro Harmonix Metal Muff With Topboost is a strong choice. This version of the original Metal Muff is made for guitarists looking for powerful high-gain distortion with added high-frequency harmonics, so your guitar sound stays clearer and more forward.
The distinctive Top Boost circuit adds extra top end to the signal, making the distortion cut more and sit more prominently in a band mix. You especially notice this in rehearsals, on stage or in dense arrangements where your parts need to stay audible.
Plenty of control over your metal sound
The Metal Muff With Topboost gives you broad tone-shaping options with output volume and master drive controls, plus a 3-band EQ with bass, mid and treble. That lets you dial the distorted sound more precisely to your amp, guitar and playing style, from a heavier base to more mid focus or extra edge on top.
The Top Boost is footswitchable and has its own control knob, so you can switch in that extra bite right when you need more presence. That makes this Electro Harmonix distortion pedal practical for players moving between rhythm and lead parts.
Rugged build and ready to use
The compact die-cast chassis is built for regular use. The pedal also features high input impedance buffered bypass, and both a 9-volt battery and power adapter are included.
That means you can put the Electro Harmonix Metal Muff With Topboost straight onto your pedalboard or home setup. If you need advice on effect pedals or how they work best with your guitar amp, Magna Music can also help with practical guidance from musicians in the shop.
