Shown only within a gear class, and only where there's enough evidence to be meaningful.

Description

The Fender Full Moon Distortion is a high-gain distortion pedal from Fender, part of the Hammertone series, delivering aggressive, heavily saturated distortion suited to hard rock and metal applications. The Full Moon Distortion provides wide Gain and Level controls alongside a three-band active EQ and a voice switch that shifts the tonal character of the distortion between two distinct frequency profiles. The high-gain circuit with three-band EQ gives players detailed control over the distortion character for both rhythm and lead applications across metal and hard rock genres.

The MXR Randy Rhoads Concorde Distortion is a signature distortion pedal created in collaboration with the estate of Randy Rhoads, the legendary Ozzy Osbourne guitarist who died in 1982, designed to recreate the specific Marshall JMP-inspired distortion character associated with his iconic tone on the Blizzard of Ozz and Diary of a Madman albums. The Concorde delivers harmonically rich, powerful distortion suited to classic heavy metal and hard rock lead playing.
