SKU: HELLMELTER

Product Description

With its take on the cult-classic, chainsaw distortion pedal — the EHX Hell Melter takes high-gain to new extremes! The Hell Melter features expanded controls and tonal capabilities, allowing the already "in-your-face" sound of the original pedal to broaden by switching to more open clipping options and boosting the internal voltage for increased headroom, less compression, and more attack.

Based On A Black & Orange Behemoth!

Originally designed as the ultimate in high-gain tone, this world-famous distortion circuit is known for the death metal sounds of Sweden's Entombed and the shoegaze wash of My Bloody Valentine. It's even found a home in the rig of David Gilmour!

All The Control You'll Ever Need

The EHX Hell Melter's expanded control set includes Gain and Level knobs, and a powerful active EQ with parametric mids for improved versatility. The Dry level control allows for blending your input signal for improved low-end when used with a bass, or even blending in other distorted tones!

The Boost footswitch engages an input gain boost and a volume boost which is internally adjustable. The Normal/Burn switch toggles between the classic chainsaw sound and the more open clipping option.
