Behringer UM300 Ultra Metal distortion pedal. Brand new in a box, never used (own two).

It’s an amazing value for such a great sound - check the reviews!

This is an affordable distortion pedal that is a clone of a similar Boss stomp box. It’s much cheaper than a RAT pedal, because the enclosure is thermoplastic composite mould. However, it has plenty of control over the tone (precise mid adjustment). Also, it’s very well made and from a reputable company manufacturing affordable audio gear.

Originally, it would cost in the region of £35-39 (plus delivery). Chinese clones are encased in metal boxes but often either the electronics fail after few weeks or they just don’t do what’s being advertised, producing muddy tones and introducing loads of noise. This is, in my opinion, a good choice for a young person playing metal/grind core/doom or someone who’s only starting to explore shredding.

Metal to the Max

The UM300 effects pedal gives you the most extreme, sought-after hard rock and heavy metal sounds, with super-thick, tube-like distortion – plus virtually endless sustain.

The Art of Tone

Like most distortion boxes, the UM300 comes with Distortion and Level controls, and the High and Low controls let you dial in the amount of top-end and bottom you desire – but the similarity to other stomps ends right there.

Much like our world-class mixing consoles, we’ve given the UM300 a Mid Frequency control, allowing you to select a mid-range frequency (from 200 Hz - 5 kHz) and boost/cut it by up to 15 dB. What this means in terms of tone, is thick, tube-like distortion with endless sustain for everything from aggressive, traditional metal assaults – to the ultimate in modern crunch!

A brilliant status LED tells you when the UM300 is active, while a top-quality on/off switch maintains highest signal integrity in bypass mode. You can power the UM300 with our PSU-SB DC power supply (not included), or pop in a 9V battery.
