 THIS PRODUCT IS CURRENTLY OFFERED AS A PRE-ORDER ITEM, PLEASE READ THE INFO SECTION FOR DETAILS

In true DOD fashion, the Metal X, Corrosion and Grunge were all built using the same circuit board and identical circuit design. There is very little if any difference between the Metal X and Corrosion, according to that Josh guy from JHS the only difference between them is the enclosure artwork which was only a rebrand by DOD, as for the circuit I can't find anything discerning the two so I'd say he's correct.

Besides a few component values differences and an omitted capacitor in the distortion circuit, the main difference between the Metal X and Grunge circuits is the EQ gyrator which use some different component values to get slightly different EQ curves. The Grunge has a larger boost in the high range by a few dB and both high EQ's centre on a 5.5kHz frequency with the Metal X having a larger Q. The bass response is almost identical, with the low frequency centered around 130 Hz with a wide Q. SPAN imaging and explanations are detailed in the demo videos for both pedals.

In keeping with the tradition of DOD, any of these three pedals can be built on the same circuit board. 

Additional hard and soft clipping options have been added to give this pedal some variety when it comes to the way the distortion sounds and interacts with the EQ gyrators. As you will hear in the demo these clipping options make quite the difference to the overall tone.

Hard and soft clipping toggle switch options;

Left = LED/Schottky Bat46 combo
Center = OFF
Right = Symmetrical Silicon

This pedal also doubles as a signal buffer. A Klon style buffered bypass was added to squash the oscillation feedback that happens with true bypass high gain pedals and also adds signal integrity to a signal chain. 

The footswitch on the DOD pedals are notoriously unreliable, both for not always switching properly when engaged and also for failing. This version uses a modern footswitch that always switches when engaged and a low failure rate.

 *Note* This pedal runs on a standard 9 Volt centre negative power supply which is not provided, for suggestions on power supplies see the info section.

Fit me even better than I was hoping.
Size: XX-Large, Color: Beau Blue
I was all but convinced upon receipt I would be sending these back but they fit beautifully. The trick is understanding what the directions are trying to tell you. I’m 6’4 with a 40 inch waist on traditional jeans (regular fit). I selected 2XL because my feeling was I would want and need a waist line that would fit me but not constrict me. Admittedly my regular fits were getting close to not fitting as good anymore so I felt 2XL would give me that “extra” my regular fits were no longer affording me. Comfortable at the waist(not too tight) and they fit me nicely all over. Perfect length. Colors look great too. The pictures shown are accurate. I’ll be ordering more. Give these a try! Definitely worth the money.

amazing pair of jeans!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Dirty Blue
im 6'2, 280 currently , bought a 38/32 pair of, these jeans and will instantly look forward to buying more, just for comparison , the same day i got these i tried on a pair of levis i had just bought as well, the Levi jeans i got were also 38/32, and they were the 501's which are stretchy, but maaaan, let me tell you, the difference between those and these are night and day, these feel like i can run a mile in them and do whatever activities i choose to, its stretchy in all the right places, the crotch area isnt tight at all, these are incredibly breathable and in comparison to the levi's price , these are cheaper by $15 and they weren't even on sale, unlike the levis which were on sale by 15% and STILL costed $50. Will buy more ASAP. 10/10

stretch jeans
Size: Large, Color: Dirty Blue
These jeans because they are very comfortable. They stretch just the right amount without binding. I am female but wear men's jeans. These jeans ride lower so sometimes slide down. I ended up solving that issue by ordering a second pair in a smaller size. Worked perfectly. They stretch so no problem there, and now they stay up!

very comfortable, good looking
Size: X-Large, Color: Deep Blue
Perfect for my husband. So comfortable and look like regular jeans like he used to be able to wear. All his life he would only wear Levi shrink to fit, but in last few years they were too stiff and uncomfortable due to injuries and poor health, so has been wearing stretch pants and hating them. I ordered these not expecting them to work, but they fit him perfectly and are so comfortable I ordered him 2 more pair. He is so happy to be wearing blue jeans again. One caution, other styles of this brand do not fit the same as these jeans, I ordered another and have to return them and order 1 or 2 sizes bigger than the jeans
