My favourite, the Marshall Guv'nor! Used as distortion booster also works awesome! (Gain 5, vol 10) Edit: with the MKI version you could even use the the third jack "loop" (insert) to add a noise gate that works only with the effect enabled, awesome for boosting!
DS-1 and Big Muff sounded awesome! I usually run my DS-1 with the tone at 1:00 and the distortion at 4:00, level all the way up because I have one of the newer Ds-1 pedals and it tends to be quiet.
You managed to make them all sound pretty good. Nice work in a real band context, the Gov'nor would prob be the smartest choice, or a rat. I wish they had brought out a rat with bass, mid and treble control. It would of been the best dist ever made.

THIS is how comparison videos should be done. Thank you!
9:52 is where he finally puts in the right settings for the HM-2
Rat was my fave. Very surprisingly, the Guv'nor was second choice.
Same here
The Rat.... man what a monster of a pedal.
I own one, you should totally get one if you can
Metal zone in the fx loop is a whole different animal. Rat is probably the all around best. Muff is more fuzz but great through the right amp!
THANK YOU FOR DOING THIS VIDEO. Seriously, it's so refreshing to have a video that gets straight to the point.

THE BEST demos and product comparisons on TH-cam.

Thanks for that demo!
I really liked the DS-1
Very cool vid! My faves were the Rat followed by DS 1.
Same. Also the HM wasn't that bad...
Best review/shootout ever. Keep doing ones like this!
I'm waiting for you to set that HM2 all the way to the right then there you go 😊
I love this channel! U really get to hear what the guitar or gear sounds like with no push to sell it!
Keep on keeping on brother 🎸
I love playing my Strat connected to my DS-1 🤗❤️
Best review on you tube for distortion pedals
man, what a perfect video. Nice and simple. Thanks!
I love the rat. It has a great tone for all types of genres. It also can be used as an overdrive and a fuzz!
I thought the rat would win easily but the ds-1 sounded amazing too.
Also, I wish I had the tabs to some of these riffage 😈
1] RAT
2] DS-1 and Metal Zone
Guv’nor, RAT and Metal Zone were my favs.
Wish they still made the Guv’nor.

Love the Vid keep up the good work!
Great video, great pedal comparison
So, so, so well done!!!
RAT & Big Muff FTW
1. Boss DS-1
2. ProCo The Rat / Boss MT-2
Sweet tone is marshall guvnor 👍🏻
metal zone mt2 and RAT are clearly the bests
DS-1 with an SG sounds great
Yeah man, those humbuckers! My strat does not sound like that on a ds-1 haha
@@g0tst1ngs Yeah, DS-1 sounds pretty bad on strat I think. I love a big muff with my strat for solos.
I run my amp gain knob at 12 o clock and the rat knob at 10 o clock and the volume all the way up for a thrashy tone it sounds great
BOSS DS1 is outstanding, 2nd place for my surprised BIG MUFF
Good demo!!
Great video! My two favorites were the Guv'nor and the Rat.
Great video!
Unpopular opinion but I got to give it to the BOSS metal zone.
I liked metal zone and big muff
RAT and DS1 my favorites
RAT forever ❤
The Boss ds 1, Rat, and Bigg Muff are the best ones on the list
Could of maybe included the MXR Distortion +.The Boss reeks of early Sabbath/Priest type tones which I have.
RAT is my favourite
Great Job. Loved the Marshall Best. Great and fair comparison.
Really? I felt is was a bit thin and hollow but that’s just my ears, to each their own. Personally I liked the Rat followed by the DS-1
7:20 Is this a real song riff? It reminds me of Queens of the Stone Age but I’m not sure.
You’re probably thinking of Tension Head by Queens of the Stone Age
@@dr.k6205 Yes, you are right i was thinkng about that song! Thank you
What about the guvnor 2 ????
What about it?
@@lizardman7364 just to mention it
RAT Low - Hi gain
All around ❤
Big Muff is the best stuff)
Best demo ever
I like big muff… feels like home
Isn't the Big Muff a fuzz?
It's a Pi
Y’a pas photo … La pédale RAT est la meilleure 🎶
RAT the king of dirty
great!
❤❤❤
Big Muff is a Fuzz Pedal, not Distortion
Rat is just quality. Ive opened up the big muff 2018 version and it was chinese capacitors and parts.
What is wrong with that ?
Wake up 99.99% of things are from china including your cell phone with China parts
Rat is made in china
It’s simple, chinese products don’t use quality components
Guv'nor and Rat 🐀
This is how to make a shoot out, settings at 12 o'clock
Fulltone and Fender Hammertone for me
IMHO:
1) Rat
2) Guv'nor
3) DS-1
4) Heavy Metal
5) Big Muff
6) Metal Zone
sorry but the hm-2 sounded like old video game music
Big Muff Pi has too much muscle imo. I found RAT the best in all categories
that big muff sounds terrible
Agree. Lots of fans, but I can't get used to it.
HM-2 sounds super artificial.
They all sound awful. I won't buy any of them.
get an ear
Get a $3000 distortion pedal instead. They all sound great.
What would get?
@@s.ri.1020 A real tube amp
@@adleneboulebtateche156I bet you've never even heard of Les Fender before
