1980's Maxon Japan SM-01 Super Metal DistortionThe Maxon SM 01 is the Super Metal variant from the 01 series released for the Japanese market in the 1980's. These use the same PCB layout as the Maxon Ibanez SM 9 Super Metal and produces the famous thrash metal sound that guitarists have trouble replicating without a high wattage amp. The pedal can scoop or boost the midrange and uses a pair of JRC4558 IC's to push a huge range of mid to high gain sounds with 5 knobs of tone shaping possibilities.
