I'v been looking into buying the FBDR, as it seems like a great amp. I play blues on the most part, and from what I'v read/heard, this amp is perfect for that. Anyway, I also play some metal and I was wondering how this amp would cope with a distortion pedal, such as the Boss MT-2.

I know this amp is not designed for metal, but it would be nice to know if it was capable of taking distortion pedals on the clean channel, no matter what volume I have the amp at.

Thanks.

Other info: I used to own a Orange Tiny Terror Combo, and it was useless when it came to playing pedals. Not looking for a repeat!

The BDRI takes pedals very well. I currently have Monte Allums modded Boss OD-3, BD-2, and CS-3 which work very well. I also have a Fulltone FullDrive 2 MOSFET on order to replace th eOD-3 and BD-2. Not sure how an MT-2 would sound.

Just plugged the FullDrive 2 MOSFET into my BDRI last night. Based on just a quick test, it blows away my Boss OD-3 and BD-2. I look forward to taking some time to dial this pedal in to my amp and guitars.
