Review: pas de chance pour moi cette metal zone n'a pas voulue s'allumer mais j'ai un autre metal zone qui bosse bien, le son est juste trés bien, pas loin de la perfection pour metalleux, gratteux, debutant et pro. je recommande meme si elle est un peu chère.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: would this be a good option when playing guitar at a somber worship service?**
A: Well I'm not sure what a Somber Worship Service is. But if your looking for a good metal tone this is a good buy. You can adjust to the sound distortion you want.

**Q: Would this be a good pedal for 80's hair metal/rock bands like Warrant orTesla type of sound or would a regular Distortion pedal work just as well?**
A: Hello, this is a great pedal for playing metal. I had mine connected to a Marshall 30CFX with the amp on the clean channel and it sounded great. I play a lot of Black Sabbath, Metallica, and AC/DC. I had the MT-2 and the DS-1 side by side, the DS-1 didn`t even compare so I sold it. I just found the MT-2 to be way more flexible to the point of where I almost bought another one so I could have two side by side. I liked it that much. I thought the gain and distortion on this pedal were very good. You can play anything with this pedal. I also have the Orange Micro Terror and the Dark Terror and I am using a 60 watt Mesa Boogie cabinet. The dark Terror is a high gain amp that needs no pedal and the Micro Terror can take the MT-2, but I prefer without. The Micro Terror is a great rock amp by itself, trust me. I don`t know what you have for equipment, but I wouldn`t use the MT-2 with a tube amp, you would be defeating the purpose of the tubes, solid state pedals and tube amps generally don`t mix well, but that`s just my opinion. I would go to your local guitar shop and try the pedal out on a variety of settings, with different amps to see if you like it or not because it`s about what you like and not what other people think you should have for equipment. Everybody has to find their own sound. Anyways, I hoped this helped and gave you some things to think about before making your purchase, good luck and have fun.

**Q: Is this pedal True Bypass? Thanks.**
A: No, Boss pedals are never true bypass. They are buffered. Always have been, always will be.

**Q: Can I get a Zeppelin / sabbath sound out of this?**
A: It's a heavy distortion sound

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by D***N on 29 January 2026*

I bought the BOSS ML-2 Metal Core to cover “modern metal” territory in a simple stompbox, and it absolutely delivers what it’s designed for: very high gain, tight/weighty low end, and a sharp, aggressive attack that makes palm-mutes and chugs sound huge. BOSS even markets it as their most extreme/high-gain distortion and aimed at modern heavy styles. Tone & feel (what it does best) • Rhythm tones: This pedal shines for heavy rhythm work—think tight, percussive riffs and big low end. The LOW/HIGH EQ is voiced for “chunk + edge,” and it really leans into that modern, biting sound. • Modern voicing: Many players describe it as naturally a bit mid-scooped and “in your face,” which is great for heavy rhythm but can be less ideal for cutting through with leads unless you compensate elsewhere. Controls & ease of use It’s refreshingly simple: Level, Distortion, Low, High. No menu diving, no weird quirks—just quick dialing. Best results (for me and generally echoed by others) come from running it into a clean/neutral amp (or a clean channel) so the pedal provides the core distortion character. The main limitation The flip side of “simple” is EQ flexibility. There’s no dedicated mid control, and that’s the biggest reason this pedal can be polarizing. If you need to boost mids for solos or to cut through a dense mix, you’ll likely want an EQ pedal after it, or you may prefer something like a Metal Zone style pedal with more mid shaping. Noise / practicality With this much gain, you should expect some noise at extreme settings—pretty normal for the category. If you’re playing tight modern metal, a noise gate (or disciplined muting) can help keep things surgical. Who it’s for - You want instant modern metal rhythm tones, tight lows, aggressive bite, minimal tweaking. - You rely on mid control for leads or mix cut—plan on adding an EQ, or choose a pedal with more flexible mids. Overall: A purpose-built metal distortion that does the “crushing modern rhythm” thing extremely well. I’d rate it 4/5 only because the lack of mid control can be limiting depending on your rig and band mix.
