    Joyo JF-17 Extreme Metal, High-Gain Crunch with 3-Band EQ and Gain Boost

    • I'd personally look for a used Digitech DF-7, but it is inexpensive new, and works for over the top metal tones
    • The boost function is a bit of a secret weapon of this pedal, is can be used as a “cutting through the mix” switch, but is actually used best with it on at around 12 o’clock and the treble knob being on zero, this will give you a very satisfying smooth distortion tone
    • Has a really good metal tone and the boost is handy
    • Lots of sweet crunch and cool tones, with quite a bit of versatility
    • Dialing way down gave a sweet Nearly clean David Gilmour "Breathe" tone
    • dads at all the local dive bars and roadhouses always compliment my "tone" and my secret is i just use this pedal turned all the way up
