This might have been the worst way to do this I can think of. You could have picked say a Strat with swimming pool route and pulled the pedal out of the enclosure, added the knobs on top of the pickgaurd, and then put the pedal on a switch so it can be entirely removed from the circuit for 'passive' function - although the pickups are active anyway - in a 'true bypass' fashion. Although since it's an HB I guess nothing of value was lost by routing a square out of it.
^ I think someone completely missed the point
@@ScienceofLoud : and the fact that it's a B.C. Rich!
Colin: i like minimally invasive mods
Also Colin: *installs a full stomp box into guitar*
Too right on this one. "Minimally evasive" routes out about 1/8th of the top of the guitar to add a stompbox too it.. I love this though it's so good it's comical and entertaining
To be fair, I’m sure he’s aware of this considering the entire build was a joke more expensive than many beginner’s rigs
@@daro9582 no, the pewter parts are pretty reasonably priced, so are the cheap activities and the spikes. The metal zone is the only really expensive mod
"The swear word was Tory"
Nice
I almost spit out my soup from laughing so hard
That made me giggle.
I was not expecting it
I knew it!
i didnt get it :(
"The swear word was Tory"
You're god damn right
Thought it was Thatcher 😅
this reminds me, i still have 200 medium-sized spikes sitting in a drawer from my failed black metal band 🤣
You know what you need to do!
@@ScienceofLoud I think we need to move to Scotland!
@@sweetxpeanut hold my metal zone 😜
wanna give them all to me?
$25 for the lot!
All the gain at the start of the signal chain!
A metal guitarist with a Pokémon plushy collection? This is a man after my own heart!
Aaahahahhaa Senpai noticed me!
Senpai notices
you finally explained how you handled the battery usage of metal zone. In previous video i commented the battery would die quick as permanent connection would keep metal zone battery in use all the time.
"The swearword was Tory".
I salute and applaud you, good sir.
Easiest way to install a Metal Zone in a guitar? Give it the COVID-19 vaccine.
I'm not getting the vaccine until they release the Wazacraft version.
Underated comment for sure😂
@@jessekulbe1855 sadly, I'm afraid Colin made my joke before me in the intro 😂
I wonder if this would have been better as a prank, hear me out! You'll need something like a hollow body or something you could at least conceal the guts of a metal zone (or similar) inside. You break the pedal down so you just have the functioning circuit board, battery etc. If you could find someway of hiding it inside the body so no one suspects anything and of course hardwire the pedal to the circuit inside the guitar so whenever you plug it in BOOM! It works straight off the bat, then leave it next to a nice fender amplifier or something. As soon as the player plugs in SCREEEE! I'd fucking pay to see that unfold
I did something similar 10 years ago for a high-school project. But w/ the guts of a boss ns-2 under the pickguard of my squier.
You are awesome. Nice work, and thanks for sharing! You rock, Colin!
My 11 year old metal head son and I both loved the first video ... 🤘🤟👏
Slayer!
Holy crap this is an awesome idea. We were just talking at jam the other day about how the Metal Zone is perhaps one of the most misunderstood / maligned pedals of all time.
This was really cool Collin. Thanks for the entertainment and inspiration for my own insane build some day.
Thank you Colin, very cool!
That's cool stuff. Clever ideas all around.
This is exactly what I asked for in the comments on the main video! Thank you!
Would have been easier to duct tape a Big Muff to a Tele like the guy in Devo did in the 1980's.
This by far the most insane guitar mod I have ever seen...Love it! 🤘😈🤘
Love that the Scottish pronunciation of "bases" and "edges" sounds like "basies" and "edgies".
Also, I'm pretty sure Kerry King did this to his guitar first. ;)
'The swear word was Tory...' 😂🤣😂 Bravo sir.
you fucking rock man. keep it going. that love hate with the mt-2. love it
No cap, those pickup housings are pretty badass
That is sweet putting the pedal in the guitar... Nice work!!!
Look, it's the Scottish Johnny Depp (actor)!
Now let's remove the pedal housing from the equation and mount all pedal controls on the guitar for a sleek yet steam punk aesthetic
The pedal in the guitar gives It a industrial look, perfect for some industrial metal like Static-X🤘🤘🤘
This is a piece of art. My respect.
The idea to build the pedal into the guitar was an interesting choice but man did it work
Dont understand why you don’t have more subscribers. Not that this amount is poor; it’s definitely a decent amount! Just the content is smashing, easily one of my favourite RUclips channels. It deserves the millions
You should take something like a small Friedman OD, gut it and install it in a guitar cavity, so you have something usable but totally hidden besides the switches/knobs somewhere on the body
Love you broham rock on!!!
thats really cool! Didnt the guitarist from killswitch do something like that with a boss pitchshifter?
If you want to go even further back in time, there's a band called Mutantes, in which its guitarist had a guitar, made by his brother, that had effects and even poliphonic pickups. They went as far as to use six fuzz circuits, one for each string. All this in late 60s and early 70s.
Our favorite pairson has returned!!
All the gain!
I just fukin love your shirt man.
You should do a version with 2 metalzones; stacked gain for even more Br00tz.
you have no idea how jealous i am of you having that east dock sign
The funny thing is that i last year (a15 year old) basically built this guitar. It was a Harley Benton WL 20 that I put James hettfield emg’s in and then scratched in some Metallica lines from creeping death and ride the lightning. Did Not do any stickers or spikes tho cuz I still have some sense of what’s too much.
You should be the voice for Real Radio hosts show, so proper music can be heard again!
this is a cool channel. i don't understand most of it, but it's cool
I've always thought about installing the circuit board of a pedal into one of my guitars since the 80's but never have. Funny.
"Perfectly good Metal Zone." Is that a thing?
they shim up tables very well, and they're perfect paperweights...
Most are actually pretty good when put into the effects loop of an amp NOT directly in like what most reviewers and people do
Why not? I put a Tube Screamer in a hollowbody back in the 80's. It sounded AWESOME!
Don't forget to scoop the mids!
Not exaclty the guitar but in my opinion, this setup lacked a strap that's play-below-your-knees long to be a true metal teenager's guitar! Great effort put into it anyway! Good job!
Find a massive guitar like an Explorer and put the smaller version of a helix in it. I'm talking about the three button helix. I think it's called a stomp helix, right?
That‘s what to do on an SG, no neckdive anymore👍🏼
Holy shit lol you totally nailed a teenager's guitar from that era! For thats when I was a teenager lol
Its cool to see it done to a professional level though lol the "modded" Deans and BC Rich's owned by the kids I knew werent this nice lmfao
Now perform "Grotesque Impalement" on it! ;-)
Alright I can't find any forums online that answer my specific question so I'm just dropping it off here. I'm trying to get myself an affordable amp setup for heavy music, specifically gearing towards the British high gain sound. What I've narrowed down as the three options I like are The Joyo Meteor ran through a 1x12 cab, the orange crush 35rt, or it's bigger brother the orange crush pro 60. The criteria I have for the amp setup is versatile tones, with a solid nail on the fat, high gain tone, that works both for a bedroom guitarist but could do small gigs if it ever came up, and I also want it to respond well to pedals. I know a lot of people are immediately gonna point it straight to the Joyo for actually having a tube pre amp, but I also wanna secure myself a nice headroom for clean stuff (which seems to ever so slightly lack in these micro amps). The combo amps I like for simplicity and the 35rt for affordability. Anyone wanna drop their two cents? It'd be heavily appreciated.
Peavey transtube. They can bring you some good fat.
was seriously wondering what the swearword was in the original video, now seeing what it is i legit laughed pretty hard
9:46 ffs colin 😂
THIS is a useful mod.
Colin should do a Mohawk for his next hair style
Just need biasfx built within a guitar. It’s doable now. No amp required anymore. Just a foot switch for playing live.
“A perfectly good metal zone” 🤣🤣🤣
As a Yank, it's weird to hear someone pronounce the 'l' in solder. Then again, I sometimes pronounce Hump Day as it is spelled: Wed-nes-day.
MT-2 for life!!!! It’s magic circuit fixes everything!!!
Yes
I never actually thought that doing that is possible
"those are the kind of mods I like, minimal invasive". Yeah, I can tell..........
Sorry Colin, my aim was more to get your attention like you do with you titles. Guess it worked. Ofcourse I knew it was working, I could hear the Metalzone. This concept was so cool and out of the box for me that I had to know how this genius 😉 concept was implemented. Nobody would think of putting in a pedal inside a guitar. This was suitable as it was a Mental Metal Mod. Kudos brother.
This guitar needs to be on display at NAM 🤘
What bridge is that? I'm not well versed in that kind of thing and it looks sick!
Well, as an idea for something to do next...you've done the stereotypical teenager's metal guitar. Why not tackle the "I'm older and now realize how silly I looked before" metal guitar? The one where you're overcompensating for the silliness of the Metal Zone, instead of just letting the playing speak for you.
Those stickers are as cringe as what my friend would listen to around 2005. Perfect selection. The Metal Zone work was pretty clever, hats off for that. I wonder if it was your modded or a new Metal Zone?
Also to my shock I just grabbed a Metal Zone today for the first time ever and it can actually make noises all over the spectrum from pleasant middly humped low drive to scooped buzz saw. Never knew it can be used as almost blues driver/tube screamer replacement in stock configuration. Would just tweak the bass and treble range a bit down by default and lower distortion range. I'm prone to think the reason for the universal bad reputation is people who don't know how to tweak sounds or what they even want if the knobs at noon don't bring it.
Half the good basses have preamps in them. What are they other than a 8v battery, a small circuit, and a couple knobs and an activation switch. This would be a very sensible trend if people have their favorite pedal.

Nice, laphroaig in background. I can smell it from here
Haha, nice, but if you could somehow install one in every PRS "Private Stock" so that it was always on, that would be great!
Now install a Boss DS1 into a mustang
Damn you really put a microchip into that guitar

I'm just an 18 year old kid who isn't working yet, so unfortunately I can't join Colin's Patreon. :(
That guitar looks painful.Kerry King would like it alot!!😂
I think you can top this by making a Kirk Hammett guitar with a built in Wah pedal
Something to top this one?
Maybe some Dreamwave or something guitar with some built in super weird pedal or chorus or something? Idk. Or like a guitar with a Julia in it with that setting that random setting? Idk just a thought
Even though is a cheap bc rich guitar, I still felt a sting in my heart when you started to ''modify'' the guitar like that.
Can you cover a TATA video on if electric guitar wood affects tone?
The spikes have to be sharpened!
How about mounting a neck, pickups and strings on an entire pedalboard?🤪😂😂🤘🏻🤘🏻
Isn't the metal zone a little to close to the bridge? Thus hampering the palm muting? (the mainstay of any self-respecting metal guitarist! myself included) Besides this, an awesome project, well done!!!
Can you do a video on the schecter omen
5:46 imagine hearing that in the news
KERRY KING WANTS TO KNOW YOUR LOCATION
"perfectly good metal zone"
Still waiting on the solid state Boss Metal Zone Amp™
Hi collin! how r u today?
“Tory” as the swear word-I love it.
Collin. Did you ever stop to ask the question why? Before doing this?
Like what are you doing mate 😆😂
Either way thanks for the great content I'm happy for some distraction from all the psychosis thats happening in the world right now
😁 in Germany we call People like him Murkser😄
I'm already a peeing subscriber, maybe I'll become a peeing part of the community
You look good with that daddy haircut
Q: Remember the Electra MPC's.?
A: No, probably not.
here´s a TATA - what makes two differnet amp models sound different even when they use the same tubes?
Literally all the other components
90s grunge guitar build maybe
how much does it weigh with all the mods?
