    its very typical as I have said and decide whether we play with the tone knob
    yeah ben jai pa essay lot of models so ...
    good value for quality is to buy when prices doccaz: p a bit expensive when 60 mm, hand made it's worth a 30 while Peter! but hey the more the sound is ...

    UTILIZATION

    Simple

    SOUND QUALITY

    Although rough, dirty, harmonic control. Mine in 1976. I keep pr collection aspect but is more me. Qd I liked I did not play, it made a noise and hid my shortcomings.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Using a very occasional pr her rotten.
    Today, no, I will not purchase this kind of effect. I use less effect, the more I know what I play. The effects on the sound is like a painted lady ... Just to hide the misery.

    Also used on bass!

    SOUND QUALITY

    Screaming, fuzz ...

    Beh is said Fuzz, and it is difficult to do better. I'm pretty vintage, and even distortion too: The Kinks to play it more than enough for me, but this beast is seduced me! At rhythm is not too this, I think he's great, but solo and very dirt I have a Vox AC15 and a Jaguar (vintage I said no?) And quite frankly, in the Fuzz Above this is just enough!

    Low level, I am very groovy, round and clear so when I tested it on my bass I made "mouaip". That said, it is good enough (I think I'm not a fan of distos bass) above the minimum gain, a special grain that sounds pretty good, but tastes good ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    UaUuUh!

    I use it for over a year. My favorite is the reality of Fuzz and quality. Before I try like everyone else (I think) but the Boss is not the same ... And then I try other real Fuzz also very good, (but) more expensive and then it's Big Muff Big Muff. I bought 60 euros a good pedal for the price! I think even if we do not really want, and you have 60 euros too (it's never too much I know) it is a bad buy it even advisable.

    This piece of fuzz a good analog for those who know not what c is c is very difficult to explain my guitar teacher described the jazz fan in the baths "the big muff fucking c is yucky!". the connection is a simple unit for the sector j have still not managed to find one but the batteries last longer if you remove the jack in use after chak

    We can not find it simpler!

    Then c is the fun! I l or reused virtually that with overdrive or a delay.seul c is not great but when you do not care the distortion with a good micro serious impression on al be in the Smashing Pumpkins James Iha and between Billy Corgan c is enormous! sustain is infinite kasiment nimporte on which note the low E string c is huge! I use the loop with other effects of EHX and Ibanez (delay wahwah tube screamer doctor q etc) and ca rings on a ibanez sas32 mounted duncan

    UTILIZATION

    Simple configuration ... you turn the knobs until it finds the sound for and presto:

    - Volume: say anything
    - Tone: not perfect but effective enough to draw sound
    - Sustain: The range of the same distortion is fairly small (I can not make the difference between the knob halfway or background) but there is plenty to do.

    The knobs are hard to turn what is really a good point, it will not change its perfect rglage by moving the pedals or walking around his foot over his pedalboard.

    A small nanmoins default: the power plug is in the format mini-jack that is no longer current trs, forced to use a adptateur to power via a power supply 'garland.

    SOUND QUALITY

    This is indeed a fuzz (or rather a hybrid of fuzz and overdrive) so yes it's filthy from DEFINITIONS / draft and so we lose frquences but it is the the charm of a fuzz! Try before you buy impractical (I conois perfectly pedals that can not appeal).
    Like almost everywhere else, according to the guitar sound is variable, I use it with an EMG 85/60 esp climbs and a strat us (microphones so simple), the whole branch in Peavey Classic 50 (all lamps) .

    - Esp With the pedals alone is not enough and too much fuzz overdrive my taste, but uses a lightweight overdrive downstream (H & K tube factor in my case) the sound is glove! A well cradingue (but not too), this little fawn's "dcrochage Velcro" every big shot mdiator ... your exact solo is terrible.

    - With this strat diffrent, the sound is too clump when I muff the couple with the tube factor but only uses your exact trs is convincing. You can really do to Hendrix, Jack White, Frusciante and Gilmour (with a small delay found a really dirty dlicieusement solo "time") to name a few ...

    You can also put a clean boost upstream to gain power in his try.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I put 9 / 10 the pedals because it is good but not perfect sr Fuzz makes a good trs his office. The ratio quality price is right no more but this is not the ruin.

    you can get three tones:
    - With the tone knob 1 / 4 and sustain blok, we obtain a saturation trs trs consistent round like "SANTANA"
    - With the tone knob a little over 50% and sustain blok, we get a super fuzz vintage of great quality very dirty type "HENDRIX"
    - With the sustain knob has half results in a slightly less convincing overdrive I think.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for 2 years
    The +: the quality of its product, the robustness of the pedals
    The -: one thing, the switch is too noisy and is hard enough to activate
    For 70 euros it is a quality of pedals I advise everyone!

    The sound palette is not wide, I have a sound. I vary the gain for a few times its a little more dgueu.

    It is the distortion of the Smashing Pumpkins, Cherub Rock Listen titles, Zero to get an ide.

    US version is more lgrement prcise the Russian, but the diffrence is not at all empty. I have less background noise with the Russian ... weird right? Fortunately, the noise disappears when I play.

    The grain is rather unique, a claque unless a rat and gave her a very "smooth".
    You can not just play with.
    I also use it with my bass and trs trs trs trs work well.

    + LE's

    + Allows for a rather large distortion with simple meicros
    - A lot of background noise ...

    OVERALL OPINION

    I have used it for 6 months
    - I prefer it's very saturated gain sound very typical big muff (very big your fat)
    Do I like the least is the big buzz that DGIG ds that the triggers, and the fact that it is very very versatile little
    -70 Euros say anything at Thomann
    -With experience, so I was looking for my main distortion I would take re not, it is very intrrssant cons of having a rack of pedals among its

    I use it recently but it's become a dj PDAL indispenssable me

    I prfre? its simplicity yet with a terrible sound that kills you retue APRS and you are dead!

    Before I try to buy a lot of pedals and distos boss gt3, 5.10, and no sexual n'tait as the Big Muff in fact I like it as much as the heads of my distos amp (vox and engl)

    report quality price is right trs in 70 for the sound that comes out of the pedals is reasonable trs

    I would do if the choice?? But with eyes closed, my friends, in fact I wonder if I'm not going CRER the sect of worshipers of the big muff!

    Bn srieux if like me you ask, but what hell I might as well try distos pedals of the 50 of this store and try the Big Muff and harder ... try out without having bought.

This is a particular sound, we like to play with or not. And the fact is that many, many guitarists (Billy Corgan, for example?) Or bass (the Muse) like to play with the one which I think is the guarantee it has something for her ^ ^

    OVERALL OPINION

    A classic. We love or we dtest. Me, I love it!
    However, since the effects are passs by store and you can get ouf of the fuzz for the same price. Or clones of the old muff at good prices. So, it s me parat less essential to the pedalboard.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Fuzz is a very clean I think. The output level is impressive. The sustain is over-saturating the signal from 3am, but it's still not too rough (for a fuzz, right) and wow, but what sustain! Against by the sound quickly becomes plastic as soon as you exceed 1 hour on the tone. This gives the creamy fuzz with the tone and sustain under 11h: a treat. In short it sends the puree, while remaining gentle enough if one does not abuse the tone that quickly turns squeaking. In addition it generates very, very short of breath (in me anyway y'en hardly, even at high volume).

    I use with my RX200 Lag on my Marshall 8080 (while waiting to re-use my Laney GH100S), coupled with an equation Boss GE-7, because a good equation it changes your life, anyway. I love the large well rounded and warm that can be drawn. Sounds good vintage.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had a little less than 2 years now I know why I waited so long before I decide.
    Sure, it's not a super versatile pedal, but I get tired of his grain.
    I bought it brand new € 60, with the dollar very weak at the time. At that price, it's worth it.
    If she were to let me go (but any-nan, a big muff is indestructible), I would buy one pronto. Unless, a Hot Tubes ... But it's not the same budget.

    the volume knob does the volume effect RULES and no direct signal is heard from the pedals when it is active resulting in a loss of your branch if you forcment Instrument> Effects> Amp , so he better put it in the effects loop of the amp but still there even when a loss lgre when we set off!

    No "pok" has the engagement.

    Super low volume rglage 10am 11am 9am, but the foot is 15h 11h 15h to go ... because the sustain level is trs cool when pushed. The Tone was soon screaming going south, it is best to stay-in.
    word, no breath, sound, big sound, gender or crmeux acid is as gots, trs pais, with a fine attack, a sound that becomes deaf, harmonic , erratic but not too much like a fuzz face. The trs rglages are effective and can have a big fuzz or overdrive trs sweet as another kind trs aggressive hypersaturation 80s. The sustain is to go as low taking the guts, class.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Start with a one amp lamps is the best config for the pedals. It grows excs the good bourgeois strat well wishes and sweet that will become ever Screamer! Only default, it is somewhat invasive in a pedal board, but it's a bit like her, invading and beautiful once, in the upscale excs. It's a fuzz, not a nice boost!
    Again, the Tone is SETTING THE trs questionable or screaming if pushed to extreme rglages but it is also used to make a fuzz of its kind ... a 80's bad for a well done.

    OVERALL OPINION

    This is more consistent, less nervous and medium plus contrlable a fuzz face. In short, a fuzz of great class, a real with a real analog sound. In between, it is less exclusive and more versatile.
    I bought it on ebay 40 euros there prs two years, it's cheap for the enjoyment indfniment renewal!
    Arrange to be alone for an hour and drop you a high volume, Start neck pickup, big muff calls and play with a bit of sensuality ... close the eyes. Think that you could be in another life and you will understand why one day you learned to play guitar electric.
    10 of 10 on the scale of fuzz, if you only have 5 has to do everything.

    Also note, the prsence a true bypass and an LED RED!!

    All condensed in a housing mastoc, trs charismatic, seemingly robust could no problem organizing your pedalboard in its scope but give him a mouth of hell)

    After going a lil less on canvas prsence as a power supply socket of an old mini jack, has the amricaine, who has asked to buy some adapters.

    Knowing that those who would gns for the last two points can fall back on the Little Big Muff. / \ I compared the two with a friend possdant other and they sound significantly diffrent, we still do not understand why ...

    UTILIZATION

    Sound of the trs typ Muff as we find our happiness pretty quickly if you know what to expect. Through 5 minutes of rglages, quickly found "the" sound befitting our ears.

    The volume allows you to weigh the db of boost you have in triggering the bug. It may be helpful to get out of the mix when you play a solo, and you can always return it if you have a rhythm, regardless of the amount of "sustain" addition.

    The tone covers a wide range, the bass sound is the extreme, even the humming nasal tuft in SETTINGS trslgers around 12 hours we have a well with a wide prdominance of serious.

    Sustain allows you to have a sound like a more extreme vintage. Before / around 12 o&#39;clock we find the sonoritsa Santana, Hendrix. APRS is a 12 hours a fuzz IDAL for rhythmic grunge / garage style Mudhoney over 3 hours it turns into the big sound crados, which wakes the acute and rained harmonics. It becomes a master in the sport and rhythmic ca CLEAR serious about solos.

    Let those who find it lacks controls console themselves because its tempra ractif still allows enough even to do some more research if the DSIR. Whether playing the equalizer on the amp, the volume of the guitar (it even has a lot Ragit trs low volume, ca provides a relatively espce crunch exploitable) but have not RVer, does not mean ractif versatile sound that typ caractriel Big Muff, ca propelled out of the mix ... ... But it will not please every ear.

    The manual is on a sheet of paper ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    To be effective in the east. You get what you want, large enough to sustain pt to go to a pizza cafcommander / go to the toilet during a bend ...

    Clearly it&#39;s the fuzz exception is dirty, it&#39;s heavy, has a peak in brief death DGIG ca! Metallic / not for the sensitive;)

    RULES I like it (a tone chouilla below 12 hours and sustain hair APRS 15h) it serves me as serious as vibrant as sharp squeaks or I walk on the sleeve of my Jazzmaster Classic Player Special. I usually play on a Vox Valvetronix, but that&#39;s nothing compared to what I could get by plugging in two MI 60 all lamps. I use it mostly on the bridge pickup, it gives me obviously more precision to master the craft. I also tried with a Telecaster amricaine and also suits him perfectly.

    Once again, it&#39;s a really CHARACTERISTICS better know what it is before you buy.

    The breath is the only problem I do not play when it really can be Submitted by the SETTING THE PDAL (more volume / = more sustain out of breath). Note all the same I play a Jazzmaster, the electrical installation of my old apartment did a lot of noise and the fact that I could not test it other than in spices Survolt es (computers, wifi, other amps, the other a scratch oversized go deaf drummer ...).

    As for those who love the sound of the pedals but that does not support his breath should not do without it because it fits well with a trs pti cheap noise gate. I tested with the noise gate to a friend Harley Benton and ca rsoud quivoque not the problem.

    In short if the breath scares you, or you know the prdispositions your guitar in the Contents, go your way, buy or make a noise gate with it! ^ ^

    OVERALL OPINION

    I&#39;ve had one month and I love to madness. I had to search a bit before finding the sound I wanted, I found it and I am satisfied with TRS. I tried all the Big Muff in the range (the Little Tone Wicker and version) as the tone wicker accessory really nice, but ultimately difficult to use in groups (violent boost volume) too much worse (j &#39; pe will try to bypass my tone alone), the Little with his slightly differ and (DLIR kid) a case which certainly is more convenient but not the trappings of kitsch former I port my choice of the most classic Fuzz.

    Pay 68 euros, it&#39;s still reasonable for a fuzz of this magnitude, even if for any distortion pedals.

    Of course I would do this choice even if I wish I could get hold of an old Russian Big Muff ...

    Tone is an extreme one: the hum trs deaf to his screaming and breaking the ears! It's all in the right measure ...

    I use it for two styles: vintage sounds fawn Hendrix ... nerv and garage rock power chord to blow.

    L o is the most common is when a couple of overdrive / distortion nicer ... For solos it gnial. Personal, sometimes a great big bend silmple roar that makes the big muff is better than a solo full of technique (I'm not so good a trs suits me!)!

    SOUND QUALITY

    For it is not very versatile against the effect (not even).
    Done to send the wood, nothing else, it'll cradder your sound, make porridge, to go on feedback are no better, pair it with another type of distortion is even better with the effects of modulations (before or after) it is always good.

    On a guitar is genial, a bass solo (alone in either) it's going it's cool, we realize that we as a group has more bass and suddenly it's less fun.

    always 8!

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for a long time (5-6 years I think)
    I wish I could test the older models (mine is a reissue) or sovteck, but it's not easy to find.

    The price is ridiculous for the quality of this pedal and I would definitely do it again this election (even with a bass).

    OVERALL OPINION

    I've had about 3 weeks at the base I had to buy a new one but there was more in my store favorite but someone had put a deposit on sale: a 1983 model (with the black button at the top to remove the key) in good condition: we say that the model is old: better: bah is the case: OCCAZ purchased at 50E I made a deal. I play on a Mexico Start with a VOX AC 15 and AC sends frankly I'm having to play Cherub Rock and lots of other stuff.
    I have one at the base of DS2 Boss: I like it but the Big Muff is something else.
    Of course I do it again this election but I will not buy a new one: I will try to find a OCCAZ but this morning the search.

    After it is a matter of taste: so we like it or not.
    Me it does and it makes too much in a pedalboard.

    Classic

    Electro-Harmonix Big Muff PIPublished on 07/20/11 at 07:09
    Analog fuzz pedal with Standard 1/4" input and output jacks
    Control knobs for volume, tone, and sustain (ammount of fuzz)
    True bypass stomp switch, 1/8" power input, bottom battery box.
    All housed in a huge enclosure.

    UTILIZATION

    I think fuzz pedals should be kept simple and it does not get much more simple than the big muff. No instructions are necessary and I don't even remember there being a manual when I bought this. You just hook up your cables, put some power whether it's an adapter or battery, turn some knobs, stomp the switch and go.

    SOUND QUALITY

    There is a reason why this pedal has become such a classic. I have been through many fuzz boxes from run of the mill all the way through some of the most sought after boutique boxes and the classic big muff can run with all of them. Some may think the EQ is limited but there is actually a lot of range in that one tone control. From fizzy to huge it's all there. I have run this pedal with guitar, Bass, keys, and even vocals and been able to get some useable or even great sounds out of it. To this day it is still my favorite fuzz for bass. I mostly use it on guitar as that is m main instrument. The wall of sound is what I typically go for with a fuzz and it is easily achieved with this pedal. There is not much in the way of lower gain tones but I find that to be pretty common with most fuzz boxes.


    OVERALL OPINION

    For the money I just don't think this can be beat. I have other fuzz pedals that sound better in some situations and have a more refined sound but they cost much more than this. There are some inconsistencies with it though. I have played others that sounded quite different from mine. I wouldn't say worse but different. The huge size is also a turn off to some people. The size of the circuit could easily be crammed into a box half this size so if you're handy with a soldering iron it might be a good idea.

    The original fuzz box!

    Electro-Harmonix Big Muff PIPublished on 06/29/11 at 14:16
    I went to Guitar Center one day looking for something to buy because I had money burning a whole in my pocket. Decided to pick the Big Muff up since I have seen so many players use or talk about this pedal. Took it home and wow!!!...This is the first time I have played a fuzz box before and very different than natural amp distortion or other OD pedals such as Boss or Ibanez. To my pleasant and utter satisfaction I was getting very cool sustain to which I had never gotten with regular OD pedals before. I was even getting a violin type sound with playing around with the Sustain knob.

    The layout is as follows...

    The layout is as follows...

    Volume,Tone, Sustain,

    Volume is at is says. Tone will color your tone to dark or bright depending on how you dial it in. Sustain add the gain and violin like qualities to your tone.

    What I like best about this pedal was how the sustain was very long and drawn out. Very useful in certain situations. I probably wouldn't use this as my everyday rig tone but it adds a cool and fun element to your arsenal.

    UTILIZATION

    Specs:

    True bypass
    Singing sustain with attitude
    Crushing distortion
    Adjustable tone
    9-volt battery included
    Optional 9DC-100 power supply available

    Well it does not get much simpler than this. Maybe the easiest pedal to figure out. The manual was a mute point as anyone can figure out how to use this thing. It did help a little to find that violin setting which I did not know it could do until I read the manual. So that was a plus to add in the box.

    SOUND QUALITY

    When it comes to fuzz boxes I don't think there is anything better than the Big Muff. I have played a tone of fuzz pedals and nothing really comes close to the Big Muff. It is very warm and thick. Other pedals I have played seem to be thinner and more metallic sounding. This pedal is so simple and cheap at $80 it is not something that will necessarily break the bank.

    I would use this with a Tele, Strat, and a Les Paul. Each instrument sounded very good and usable. It beefed up my Tele and just made my LP explode into sustaining saturation. I ran it in front of a Vox AC30 and a '74 Marshall JMP. The combo with the Vox was quite good and a tone that I actually miss since I don't have my Vox anymore. I have gone through a ton of pedals throughout my years and this is one that has stayed with me and I will never sell.

    One downside is that I have an older one that is not true bypass which is a bummer now that the newer ones have this feature. However, I'm not going to shell out the extra $80 to get one with true bypass when I don't use it that much anymore

    OVERALL OPINION

    I love this pedal. Easy to use and the most classic fuzz box this world has ever known. I would say the only down side is the size of the box. It is HUGE and takes up a ton of space on your pedal board.

    Another thing is the odd plug which is on the male side. It doesn't use a normal Boss or Ibanez plug so beware of that. It feels kind of hollow to which you would think it could break but I have never had a problem with mine.

    At new these pedals come in at around $79, which is an excellent price for this item. I would recommend this pedal to any guitar player. It to me is a staple in rock n roll and should be owned by everyone. For the money some spend on gear this is one that will always sound the same and provide that irrefutable classic fuzz tone.
