Boss ML-2 Metal Core high-gain distortion pedal in Black Metallic finish.

I bought this pedal new and have never used it. It has not even been plugged in by me. Because I have not tested it myself before listing, it is sold as photographed and described.

The ML-2 is designed for extremely heavy distortion with substantial low-end and a sharp, aggressive attack. It is particularly suited to extreme metal, death metal, grindcore, industrial, low tunings, drop tunings, and seven-string guitars.

The pedal has four straightforward controls: Level, Low, High, and Dist. The Low control adjusts the weight and depth of the low frequencies, while the High control shapes the metallic attack and upper-frequency bite. Dist controls the amount of distortion, and Level controls the overall output volume. It uses Boss buffered bypass and the standard durable Boss compact-pedal enclosure.

The pedal is in excellent cosmetic condition overall. It has never been placed on a pedalboard and there is no Velcro attached to the base. Some light dust, small handling marks, and minor surface signs may be visible under direct light from storage and photography. The graphics, knobs, LED lens, pedal switch, input and output sockets, power socket, rubber base, battery compartment, and serial-number label all appear intact.

The original Boss box and paperwork shown in the photographs are included. The box has some normal light storage and handling wear.
