Amazing metal sound
Belzebut 02.11.2020
I've read a bit about this pedal and always compared it to the Boss Metal Zone, since these 2 pedals are the most highly recommended pedals for the Metal sound. This pedal has an amazing sound, really hard to explain. The tone can be easily changed by 'Low' 'Mid' Treble' knobs to your liking. I usually prefer more bass and mids rather than highs. I don't use the 'boost' button, I guess it's useful only for specific scenarios, like the one in the product description. The only drawback is that when connected to a mixer it introduces hum. I'm a beginner but from what I've read this is somewhat normal since I use a cheap power supply ,no DI box and no noise gate pedal.

First hit of Muff
Ygvyth 14.11.2013
I'm huge fan of strong distortion effects. Through my adventures with guitars I've tested many metal effects.
Metal Muff have wide range of sound settings. Mostly its Lows and Mids are very visible in sound. Highs gives lots of sharpness, balanced to rest of frequencies.
Distortion sound is very clear, and deep. You feel its power.
Boost gives a huge kick in to sound sharpness, power, and volume. Real power, that can be incressed or decreesed as you like.
First feeling is like this sound is too muted or something... nothing more wrong. Its just different. This box need lots of patience and time for test many different settings.
Construction is very solid, knobs are ok, switches are solid and will stand even hardest boots.

One minus for this effect: Its dominating over other pedals on your pedal board. A bit confusing to plug it in " Your " Propper order with other effects, to not loose an edge of sound.

Pretty accurate equalizer, you can tune
the sound you need.
Sounds good, but not perfect.
Everything suits, I use at home and on stage.

I love it
midoriya 30.12.2022
Seriously, I love this pedal. I don't know why it gets a bad rep, I even found the top boost useful. it works so good in my setup. I have several amps I use as a clean platform and I make sure that my clean isn't too sparkly.

it even works good in low gain settings and is useful to get bluesy tones. plus it is built like a tank as expected from ehx

Awesome!
MarkJ 02.12.2013
I was looking for a distortion effect beyond what my guitar amp can do, and this pedal gives exactly the type of sound I was after. It has enough controls to allow you to dial in your preferred tone, and has a treble boost for solos. The only downside is it is big, so takes up room on my pedalboard, but it looks and sounds great!

with a good amp, you have a metal/rock distortion for life. is very versatile. has a very heavy sound, but at the same time very pleasant to the ears of those who appreciate this kind of sound.
since Jimmi Hendrix to Slayer!! Like it very much

Nice pedal for metal
Anonymous 29.09.2014
This pedal features all tonal characteristics for a metal player from grunge to metalcore. Very versitale and will fit also some rock styles. Also equipped with high frequency boost for your solos to stand out of the mix in any live situation. Metal housing makes it indistructable. All in all, the name of the pedal explains it all, EHX will never let you down, unoique tone and long lasting durability.

Metal Muff
Anonymous 06.01.2015
This pedal is really good sounding.

Tons of good stuff for Metal.
Most amazing part is that if you roll off the distortion, pedal is so smooth taht you can play blues with it.

This is now my main distortion pedal;

This is a great metal distortion pedal. Doesn't really soften up, it really is dark and has a powerful punch behind it, especially when the boost is engaged. If you're looking for a pedal that you want to have very dark heavy solo's with, artists such as John Frusciante and David Gilmour have used this pedal in their work. But it's great to get 80's thrash metal tones, like early Metallica.
