@@Deathrape2001 Try putting a rockmaster preamp on a pedalboard. If you're getting into "the used market of things no longer made" there's also a lot of other options (that wasn't the point of the video, he's showing current pedals you can buy new at various price points). Also, pedals are just fun to play with, which is one of the main points of this video. There's lots of people making a good living playing guitar who get their distortion from a pedal. Also the rockmaster pre needs a good eq pedal put on it to sound really good. I used to have one years ago (I don't do rack gear anymore, that's a whole other can of worms to open up and bulky to boot).

This video makes me feel nostalgic enough to get one and go back to the old days before vsts and modelers. Thats going full circle from my early days with a little practice amp.

A note about the Eyemaster: it HAS to be run into a secondary distortion/overdrive in order to get the intended sound. It has an extreme post-distortion EQ that is meant to boost the hell out of the next overdrive stage, causing the "tearing/ripping" swedish deqth metal sound.

Informative & to-the-point. Great review video, as always. The Berhiger is pretty good, considering the price, though a bit noisy. I like the built-in, noise gate on the Horizon, but it seems a little pricey when considering the control features of the others. Great tone, though. The T.C. Electronics seems to have a bit of a signal-to-noise issue. The KSR, having 3 channel options, would make a killer pre-amp. Totally agree with the Metal Core being a step-up from the Metal Zone, but the lack of mid control is indeed, disappointing. The Revv & Friedman are both solid choices. All great choices, but the Abasi Pathos would be my, personal, top pick. Love the definition & thickness. A very rare combination, indeed. Probably gonna buy one this year. Thanx, again, Mr. Englund. You, indeed, Rock as hard as they come.

My two favorites were the BOSS Metal Core and the KSR Ceres. However, you could totally make the Behringer Heavy Distortion work and it costs a lot less.

The Behringer with an EQ in the chain would probably be killer

I fell in love when I saw that Eyemaster. Even more so when I heard it.

Honestly the Friedman sounds the most like a tube amp but the KSR is an aggressive monster. I’d i was on a super cheap budget the metalcore could do the job just fine.

Thank you Ola! All of these pedals sound like they can be eq’ed in a mix to sound the same, except for the Behringer, because it lacks a bit of detail, and the Eyecore, because it has its own distinct sound. The Metal Core sounds the best to my ears, but then I already have my heart set on the Metal Zone.

I picked all the ones you did, actually. I had a tie between the Friedman and KSS with it nudging out because it wasn't as dry. Although... Both of those blended in a mix would sound incredible.

Seems like Pathos is the best one and everything else is missing something, rolled off too much or too many bees. Really surprised how much the Revv became something I don’t want now. All personal taste and budgets may vary. Solid state power amp testing was a great idea.

Personally I`ve been choosing between Pathos and Revv.. they both sounded great but I ended up with Revv simply because it sounded killer immidiately I turned it on and the feeling was really like real tube amp.. Pathos sounded to me more chemically and I didn`t have that feel when I played it.. I had to twist the knobs much more to get the tone I really liked.. how I said with Revv it was love for the first sight.. but they both sound great

Yea but there are reasons why its only $25. Its all plastic construction and if you dare gig with it, you're lucky if it lasts one show.

Great vid Ola! Idk, just me but... the Horizon and the Ceres sounded very, very good. Sounded like i could shape and sculpt such a sick sound with them, tight with chug and saturation
