Electro-Harmonix Nano Metal Muff Distortion Pedal With Built-In Noise Gate

The Electro-Harmonix Nano Metal Muff packs crushing, high-gain heavy metal distortion into a pedalboard-friendly compact chassis. Engineered for modern metal, thrash, hardcore, and hard rock players, this pedal delivers intense saturation while retaining articulate note separation across aggressive rhythm riffs and soaring lead runs.

High-gain distortion often invites unwanted hiss, hum, and feedback, but the Nano Metal Muff solves this out of the box with an integrated adjustable noise gate. Dial in the threshold to immediately choke unwanted noise between palm-muted chugs and tight rhythmic stops, monitored in real time via a dedicated multi-color status LED.

Tone shaping is handled by an active 3-band EQ tailored specifically for heavy guitar genres. Boost the midrange to cut through dense band mixes, or scoop the mids for classic 1980s thrash metal crunch while sculpting crisp highs and tight low-end thump that will not turn to mud on low-tuned 7-string or drop-tuned guitars.
