The Fangs is your heavy, metal machine giving you hard distortion tones. With 3 settings to hone your tone, you can get truly brutal sounds from this pedal.

Key Features

  • Devastating Tone – Ultra-thick high-gain distortion tones
  • Simple, Controllable & Versatile – Use the mid-control to dial in the distortion exactly how you want.
  • Tight Crushing Tone – Super-tight response
  • Pedalboard Friendly – True Bypass
  • Rugged Enclosure – Compact and roadworthy enclosure
  • Top-Mounted Jacks – The top-mounted jacks make these pedals easier to use on a pedalboard where you’re trying to save space. You can get away with putting loads of pedals right next to each other on the board and the more the merrier right?
  • TC Analogue Range – The Fangs is part of the TC Electronic analogue range. All easily powered with 9v power and made to save space on any pedalboard. They’re small without being ‘mini-pedal’ sized and come in a roadworthy enclosure ready to tour with.

3 Settings of Pure Destruction

  • Raw – Thrashy and top-mid focused setting.
  • Fat – Enhanced low-end and low-mid.
  • Scoop – Scooped mids for 90-s metal tones.

All The Gain

Let’s be honest, you’re not here for a nice transparent overdrive or a bluesy crunch box. If you are, you must have taken a wrong turn at our competitors’ stompboxes on aisle 14. You’re here for the gain, all the gain and nothing but the gain. FANGS METAL DISTORTION delivers it all in spades. Whether you’re looking for tight and raunchy rhythm tones or searing solo sounds, FANGS METAL DISTORTION’s ultra-tight, bone-crushing gain structure makes you the master of all you survey!

Take Control Of Your Tone

When it comes to mastering metal guitar tones, the mid frequencies are where it all happens. That’s why FANGS METAL DISTORTION features a versatile mid-frequency selector switch in addition to the typical Bass and Treble controls. This handy little control lets you go from raw classic metal tones to scooped nu-metal – and all the way to super-beefy sludge metal tones, with just the flick of a switch.

Here’s what TC Electronic say:

Tap into a world of high-gain riffage with Fangs Metal Distortion and its super versatile set of tone tools that let you sculpt your sonic onslaught to perfection. From ultra-tight thrash tones to thick walls of doom metal distortion, you’ll find it all here and then some in this highly affordable pedal that’s ready to slay the stage!

TC Electronic

In the current JustPedals catalogue, TC Electronic is represented by Delay Pedals, Reverb Pedals and Looper Pedals. Current listings include DC30 Preamp, Plethora X1 and V550 Pre-Amp. That makes the range relevant to players looking for drive, gain and clipping, plus time-based effects and ambience. Check each model for its exact circuit or processing platform, controls, power requirements and connections, particularly where the catalogue includes both pedals and supporting gear.

Distortion Pedals

Distortion pedals use stronger or more deliberate clipping than a typical overdrive, adding harmonics, compression and sustain. Some are voiced for amp-like crunch, others for high-gain rhythm or a deliberately abrasive texture. Gain, tone, presence, resonance and output controls determine how the pedal interacts with the amplifier and pickups; a blend or noise gate can preserve clarity in heavier settings. Placement changes the result, so check whether the design is intended to push an amp, run into a clean platform or feed a direct cabinet simulation.

Tags

Analogue

Analogue products use continuous audio circuitry for some or all of the signal path, so clipping, filtering or modulation arises from physical components rather than sampled algorithms. The label does not guarantee a particular tone; component choice, headroom, bias, noise and the surrounding gain stages still matter. Check whether the switching, presets, control section or cabinet stage is digital when the exact signal path is important.

True Bypass

True bypass removes the effect circuit from the audio path when bypassed, usually by mechanical, relay or switching circuitry. This can preserve the direct signal but does not automatically solve long-cable loading, and it may create a pop or leave no buffer for the rest of the board. Check the actual switching method, trails or spillover, input and output loading and the number of other true-bypass pedals in the chain.
