The Boss Waza Craft MT-2W Metal Zone is a Waza Craft series re-launch of the iconic distortion pedal that has been available for more than 25 years from the Japanese effects specialist. The fully analogue 2-stage gain circuit of the MT-2 has been built with selected components to conjure up the full range of Metal Zone sounds with first-class quality. The MT-2W now also offers 2x switchable modes: Standard mode provides familiar Metal Zone sounds with added clarity and reduced ambient noise, whilst Custom mode offers powerful and defined Modern Metal sounds with additional dynamics, which are especially useful for deeper tunings.
The main features of the Boss MT-2W Waza Craft Metal Zone include:
The Waza Craft treatment of this legendary pedal make the BOSS MT-2W among the best Metal distortion pedals you'll ever find at any price. While the original had some issues and was very polarizing in its "love it or hate it" past, the Waza Craft geniuses at BOSS have "fixed" all the previous issues and it's now enjoyed by anyone who plugs their guitar into one.
After spending the past year frustrated in constantly trying to tweak other "metal distortion" pedals to give me the thickly saturated, beefy heavy metal tone I was seeking, the MT-2W gave it to me right out of the box.
This thing sounds fantastic.
Firstly, it arrived in good time and perfect condition. Even though I live in a country that voted to leave the EU, was very happy to be able to purchase still! Having a small budget for gear this pedal really is built to last and delivers a very customisable and powerful sound. Definitely Recommend the service and the product.
