Built like a tank.

We use it mostly on Rickenbacker bass. Sounds great.

Classic tone.

It have more bass than the NYC one. For me it sounds better. This is a piece of history. EHX sure did a big mistake when they stopped the Russian labeled series and called green muff a bass one. It is confusing.

Classic

Everyone knows about this one, and I don't think anybody would be unhappy with it. It is slightly smoother, more sustaining, less fuzzy than the Black Russian.

gah

everything you hate about the big muff now with extra low end swamp, less midrange and a really unreliable switch! I used this as a bassist for years though and loved that sound, but the switch gave out... my black Russian never sounded as full for bass.
