Mentioned in this August 24, 2011 interview with Kit Rae.

KR: Have you ever tried any of the Big Muff clones that are out there? There must be at least thirty different boutique Big Muff circuit replicas or variants out there from various makers. I know a friend of mine from Stomp Under Foot sent you a Screaming Panda few years back, and a couple of other makers have told me they sent you their versions.

JM: Yeah, the first one I got was the DAM one. That was pretty good. Then the Hairpie I like a lot. (KR - The D.A.M. Ram Head, now discontinued, was a highly praised clone made by Differential Audio Manifestations in the UK, and the Hairpie was a clone made by Ronsound in the USA. Ron Neeley, the EH Man, is still making the Hairpie at the time this interview was made)

KR: Have any of those made onto your recordings, or are they just something you play around with or use live?

JM: I don’t know if I have used a Big Muff at all on any recordings in the last…yeah, I seem to never really use them now on record. Now it’s more kind of my live sound. Now I’m just in the studio kind of experimenting with stuff. For rhythm tracks I’ll usually just go straight into an amp. I have a Tweed Deluxe or a Vox AC15. I basically just use those two amps in the studio mostly now, and then experiment with different pedals.
