BEST PEDAL FOR BASS EVER

this is the best pedal i ever get in my life, i buyed it twice, 100usd

Preferred Settings + Usage:

It's a great distortion pedal for a great price!

I am an ex-guitarist, who switched to bass guitar. I predominantly play rock, metal, grunge, etc., and I bought this pedal used for $40! It is a great pedal, especially considering the price point, although I do wish that (despite this being a distortion pedal) this had the ability to play with a little less distortion level, but I'm not going to complain! The build quality is superb, although I will say that the Big Muff Pi is unnervingly lightweight, yet still solid.

Great Bass Pedal

Classic thick, gritty bass fuzz with lots of sustain, and versatile to many genres. The blend control is great, and the pedal’s overall very durable. It can however, get muddy in a mix and it’s pretty noisy.

Unique Sound

What they say about it is true, it has a unique sound, magic. Of course, it has many different positions, which means you have to spend some time finding your perfect sound, but once you find it you wouldn't change it for anything. It loses bass, so you have to use a double line (I use the boss ls-2).

Very versatile

Very versatile, use it as a dark muff on both bass and guitar. Absolutely love it.

Meh

The fuzz is what it is. No complaint there. Yet the bass boost function was too dark for my needs and the dry knob didn’t hit the right spot for my taste. I got the deluxe version and am delighted.

shit

so people may hate me for this people may not, it seems to be a bit of a marmite pedal but i HATE the bass big muff SO SO much it just for a pedal thats marketed for bass it ate my low end completely and i just feel sick whenever i see one. i wish it never existed

Very good

I really like the fuzz effect and the selector adds 3 differents ways to mix the bass signal with the fuzz.

cheap fuzz

Of course Big Muff is a classic. Russian Green Muff gives great bass fuzz, but this is another story. EHX Bass Big Muff will give you fuzz tone which you would like or hate. I prefer to blend DRY signal with EFFECTED. There is a fail that boosts audio when you turn up the volume which acts as a blend in "DRY" mode. You can live with it in cases when you want to put fuzz in some song moments. But adjusting it to signal without pedal is tricky. If you don't like blending you can use it's splitter which can send distorted and clean signals parallel. I also like this pedal on guitar. Anyway, it's cheap and a good strart point.

Simply the muff

I have no much things to say. This is the Muff; you must try the sound of it. This pedal is really useful thanks to the splitter out (effect and dry) so you can work a lot with mixing the dry with the effect on several amps. Electro Harmonics always make a well-crafted pedals so it's really difficult to broke it. I played it in several shows, with dust, mud, beer and many other lethal atmospherical agents and it still works very well as the d1. Thank you EH for made this little beast.
