The Boss Heavy Metal HM-2 is a distortion pedal designed for electric guitar. Its controls include Distortion, Level, and a two-band equalizer with Low and High knobs. The Distortion control adjusts the amount of gain applied to the input signal, ranging from a mild crunch to a saturated, high-gain distortion. The Level control sets the overall output volume of the pedal, allowing it to boost or cut the signal relative to the bypassed level. The Low and High EQ knobs shape the tonal character by boosting or cutting the bass and treble frequencies, respectively, which can dramatically alter the aggressiveness and brightness of the distorted sound. The pedal features a standard mono input and output, and it is powered by a 9-volt battery or an optional AC adapter. It is housed in a compact, durable metal chassis typical of Boss compact pedals.
