Well, that is about as cheap and as good you are going to get for under $100. A good amp with decent distortion will make you much happier though.

or at least it can be... if somethign is better, it's totally subjective.
comparing a 5150 to a dual recto... the 5150 is cheaper, and some would say it's better. others wouldnt.
same with comparing a dod grunge pedal to a boss metalzone. some like the grunge more, some l ike the metalzone... but the grunge is half the price.
but of course the boss owns it in flexibility and built quality. 
anyways, buy a good amp.

That depends on how serious he intends to be. Down here on the south side of the exuator, you are looking at $1200 for just a head.
If you want a simple pedal to plug into a 40w peice of shit amp, and never intend to upgrade (or don't anytime in the near future) then a MT-2 is a nice pedal for the price, just don't expect to get an amazing, professional sound out of it.

the metal master gives you a scooped out sound. Wich is not cool. It has no mid knob.
