Disgusting Tone HM-2 Boosted with a JB-2 into an EVH 5150 III Blue Channel

[Deadpan]

Trying something with the HM-2.

This is a beat up Japan HM-2. You know, they sound terrible.

The riff is as random as the jagged tone.

 

[JiveTurkey]

Not near as disgusting as I expected. Sounds great \m/

 

[Iron1]

Has that 'the power is cutting out' sort of tone to my ears. Like the signal strength is as reliable as Xfinity internet...

 

[TheTrueZoltan!]

I don‘t know what you did, but it doesn‘t sound like an HM-2.

Haha, I hear it!

Yeah. Adding the Angry Driver before the HM-2 evens it out some.

You are being polite haha

How do you like the Angry D on its own? Have been curious about that pedal since it debuted.

I really like it.

I especially like it in the parallel mode.

 

[Snave]

Sounds good, man. That's a more usable HM-2 tone than most.

It's a tricky one to find a use for.

Not to mention it runs on the old 12 volt power supply. Have to run it daisy chained with another pedal to use it at 9 volt.

So, heard a clip with an HM-2 type tone and wanted to see what one had to do to get close.

Silver Jubilee on lead with the gain on 2 and the HM-2:

THIS is disgusting Time for some Entombed riffage

Loved Clandestine back in the day!

I love the death n'roll stuff something fierce

Wolverine Blues was the first album I had by them. :)

Love it!

I still love Clandestine. It’s the best Entombed album IMHO. Oh, and Nicke might be one of the most underrated drummers in Metal. He‘s the John Bonham of Death Metal.

You succeeded in making a 5150 sound like a Crate bedroom amp with an Arion Metal Master pedal

I do wish the Crates I had as a kid could have come close. I could have been famous haha. But my tone back then was scooped to hell and back with a Metal Zone. :)
