Eyemaster Metal Distortion : Chainsaw

We all know what this is. An original HM-2 might be great, but the insane prices you find even for heavily used ones are not worth it when you have so many boutique options. Thankfully we have dirt cheap ones too. The Eyemaster is a very fun pedal if you like the 90's Swedish Death Metal sound. It comes very close to the original HM-2 and does the same job just as well. Boosting it with an eq after it makes it more visceral sounding. It may be a one trick pony, but with a little imagination it can be used for other genres like doom, stoner, even black metal as well. Sometimes I miss the eq knobs when I'm not trying to get a Chainsaw sound, that could greatly add to its value. And it's built like a tank.
