Hey i could use some advice

Hi im a guitarist in london with an Aspiring metal band and i need some advice.

I currently have in my setup

1 Epiphone Les Paul w/ Emg 81 Active pickups (the Epi is 12 years old or so)
1 Zoom 505 2
1 Carlsbro 45 Keyboard amp

now with this setup im very happy cause i get a really dry metal crunch sound and it works perfectly but i have to give the zoom back to my friend soon and i was wondering what kinda pedals can i get to give me a metallica slayer pantera sound for a decent price

thanks for help

Just about anything wil give you a better tone than zoom.
I guess If you like it, go buy yourself one of those. At least their probably the cheapest thing you can buy.

What kind of price range are you looking at? I'm looking to sell my Zoom 505 II, so if you're interested, let me know.

Very dry response, but you have to admit he's right : I would sell your keyboard amp and put together a little cash of your own. Look on E-bay for a high quality combo, you'll be surprised at what you can find.
