Eyemaster Metal Distortion brings back the original metal credo of "loud and brutal" with its "simpler-than thou" 2-knob operation. Just set the volume (all the way up, right?) and adjust the gain (anything less than all-the-gain is sacrilege) and start riffing. Eyemaster was specifically designed to channel the Swedish death metal tone, endearingly nicknamed the "Swedish buzzsaw". As that term implies, Eyemaster is not a subtle overdrive. It is not transparent and it does not "sit well in a mix". Rather, it burns an unholy path straight through the mix. Aggressive death metal distortion. All-analog circuitry. True Bypass. 

The concept of gain is something we often take for granted, and rarely do we stop to think about what the term actually means. In many ways, gain has been given a bad name; mankind has been tricked into believing such blatant nonsense as “less is more”, and other sophomoric terms like “transparent” or “authentic” are better. Eyemaster brings back elemental, primordial gain – the kind of raw gain by which empires are either built or shattered! Stop wasting time on EQs. We’ve already dialled-in the perfect death metal EQ and cut off the knobs. Just turn the remaining knobs all the way up and unleash your inner beast with an authentic death metal sound that is evocative of ancient pagan rituals performed in the depths of the Scandinavian woods. Tones that are dark and menacing – and dripping with acid and edge (tcelectronic.com).

Second-hand, in good condition, some cosmetic wear as shown in photos. Comes with original box. No power supply included.
