Let the riffs erupt with the MXR EVH Modern High Gain Distortion! This signature EVH distortion, designed in collaboration with the man himself in 2015, now brings the hot, searing, punishing high-gain drive tones of everyone's favorite distortion daredevil to any and every rig. A built-out, deep control interface with plenty of crushing, saturated tone under the hood makes this Modern High Gain distortion live well up to its namesake for the kind of '80s riffs as big as the '80s hair.

In direct collaboration with Eddie Van Halen in 2015, the Modern High Gain distortion follows up on a legacy of Van Halen-style drives and distortions, with this one being a labor of love from Eddie himself. The central experience of the EVH Modern High Gain plays faithfully to other MXR distortions with a punched up, amp-like distorted quality at its center for cutting quickly to the chase. This thick, punchy distortion serves as a flame strong enough to ignite your whole rig from the ground up.

From here, the "Modern" in "Modern High Gain" kicks in with a deep control experience to bring Eddie's '80s volcanic drive tone into the twenty-first century. Independent controls for Gain and Output allow for fine finessing of the pedal's distorted character and its overall volume – roll back Gain for a little more cleanliness in your playing or punch it up for the kind of beefy, gnarly tone needed to break the mold.

A three-band EQ section shapes the distortion for spiky highs for articulation, thunderous lows for shaking the stage, or even scooped mids for a pseudo-fuzz effect. An onboard Boost switch opens up a higher level of gain structuring while a Noise Gate with a control dial allows for closer handling of your noise cancelling. Standard nine-volt power supplies or nine-volt batteries bring this Van Halen creation to life seamlessly.

Those Van Halen boys never seem to quit, huh? High Gain? What's next? Modern High Gain?

Snagged a deal
Size: 7, Color: Redwood/Gum 10
I waited and waited to get these boots! I knew I was chancing it, but they went on sale, and I snagged them! I am a size 7, and they fit nicely with socks. a little loose, barefooted, but what psycho wears boots without socks? They are comfortable and really well-made.

Cute, comfortable waterproof boots (a little snug to put on)
Size: 7, Color: Velvet Tan/Gum 2
These are really cute Chelsea-style boots and feel very comfortable once they’re on. The waterproof material is great for wet weather and the sole feels sturdy with good traction. They look stylish enough to wear casually but still feel practical for rainy days. The only downside is they can be a little difficult to put on at first because the opening is somewhat snug, but once they’re on they fit well and feel supportive. Overall they’re a great waterproof boot and I’ve enjoyed wearing them.

Surprisingly great for my wide feet and high instep!
Size: 10.5, Color: Velvet Tan/Gum 2
So thrilled I took a chance on these. Finding boots is impossible for me. I have wide feet, a super high instep, a bunion on one foot, and I wear a hard to find size (10.5). I ordered the 10.5 and 11 in these expecting I might need to size up for width (if I could even get them on). It was a struggle getting the 10.5s on the first time, and once I did they were somewhat uncomfortable on the top of my left foot. But I read that they would relax so decided to give it a go because I need waterproof boots for an upcoming trip and the 11s felt too long. After two days of light wear, they are already breaking in and I have no more discomfort. Getting them on is already easier and they are plenty wide enough and very comfortable to walk in. These are true to size. Super happy and worth a day of mild discomfort to break them in!

Comfortable, sturdy, waterproof
Size: 9.5, Color: Black/Black
Loce, love, love these boots. Have walked ten miles with no foot pain around NYC. They go with everything and and are so comfortable. As they are waterproof/resistant, they get a little warm in high temps, but perfect three-season boots.

Super cute, comfortable, practical, love that they are slip on
Size: 10.5, Color: Tobacco/Black
I have worn these 2-3 times already. The first day was a school/work day so I was on my feet 9 hours and the only issue I had was with the side of the boot rubbing against my ankle. I just make sure I wear socks high enough to cover my ankles or jeans that go into the boots now for long wear days. Absolutely love them! They keep my feet dry in this snow( we live in Michigan). I had been looking for a pair like this for awhile now and was getting super frustrated that I couldn't find my size in any that I liked. I saw that they had these available in a 10.5 and I wear 11. I looked at the Sorel website reviews (since the amazon ones weren't super helpful on sizing) and they said that the boots ran big so I took a chance on the 10.5 fitting me. They fit perfect. I have long narrow feet but I could see where they would be tight or uncomfortable on someone with wider feet. I've been trying to find a pair for my mom now since she has boot envy.
