Hey guys, I'm a newbie so I don't know much about guitar.
I have an electric guitar and a metal muff pedal Here's its picture: http://img3.musiciansfriend.com/dbase/pics.../7/8/398278.jpg I think this one is a pretty good pedal. But when I play my guitar with the distortion on, it was like ... hmm I don't really know how to explain it. Let me say this way, when I play only one string, it sound very good. but when I play like 2 string together, it's a little hard to hear the sound, three strings together, harder to hear the sound and so on. If I play 6 strings separately, but it's like really fast, like the sound of the first string I played still loud and I play second string, then third string, I completely cannot hear the sound of the string, just the sound of distortion only. When I ask 1 of my friend, he said maybe it's because of the amplifier. I was planing to get a new big amplifier, so will it make my sound better? |

Sometimes my pedal does it to me and it's a nice pedal! Does your guitar have tone knobs, volume knob and what looks like a liitle pole coming out of your guitar that you can move up and down? well move that all the way toward you then go 1 exactly down but if it goes halfway then you've gone to far. you want it right in between there. It won't do much but it'll make it a little cleaner and you won't get as much action from the neck. p.s. You might not be able to move your little (what looks like a mini pole) where I said it could go. Some guitars only have three movable position. I have a Fender and mine has 5 little sections and I'd keep my guitar any day! good luck and hope it helps. |

When you play with your Metal Muff make sure you have switched to the CLEAN channel of your amp, not the distorted one.
