Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Reviews  4 / 5 based on 10 reviews Overall this pedal does what it does and that?s about it. It?s a fuzz pedal and it?s gets that classic Muff sound. They always say ?classic sounds of Hendrix to Santana? on their ads, but I hear more Santana than Jimi for sure. It doesn?t get as raw as Jimi?s classic tone, but it?ll get you in the ball park. Overall for 80US dollars it?s a we... [read more on Audiofanzine] Fireguy8402 rated this unit on 2011-12-23. 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 t... [read more on Audiofanzine] wwhhhaatt rated this unit on 2011-07-20. 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 hol...

They go for quite cheap used, so if you are on a budget, its not a bad choice. But personally I would pass. The mediocre, bland sound, coupled with the shoddy build quality and flimsy enclosure just don't do it for me at all.
If you are after a seri... [read more on Audiofanzine] denied rated this unit on 2011-05-11. This is a quality pedal. Great sounding (if you like the sound of it) and decently priced. I personally don't find myself much of a Muff fan. I like a thinner, treblier and fuzzier fuzz. I am being unbiased in my rating and not rating it low because I don't like it. This is a great pedal, but I just don't like the Muff tone. This is one of these... [read more on Audiofanzine] darkwolf291 rated this unit on 2011-04-01. For the price of a used one I believe it's worth it, definitely a good first pedal to dip your toe into the world of fuzz. Although I think there are better Big Muff variants available, I much prefer the tone stack in the Sovtek built Big Muffs.
I think this model of muff is a great pedal to modify to provide more versatility and a more unique ... [read more on Audiofanzine] badgerific rated this unit on 2011-03-25. I love this pedal.

It is reliable, durable, and consistent in its performance. It gets noisy, but not excessively so. It will really rock when you push it. I think that nowadays, it's probably a little bit more expensive than it used to be, but I definitely think it's still... [read more on Audiofanzine] mooseherman rated this unit on 2009-06-08. I've been using the Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi for about three years. While I can't get every distortion sound I would like out of this, the sound it does produce is pretty great. It is thick and rich in tone and is quite easy to use. Compared to a pedal like the Boss DS-1, it sounds better overall to me as it produces a much fuller tone. The ... [read more on Audiofanzine] moosers rated this unit on 2009-02-20. This is a great pedal for anyone wanting to get a really big sound with themselves and their guitarist but still keeping the low end nice and clear. I would definatly recomend this pedal to all those into bands such as Rage Against the Machine, Muse etc. Bassically any song with bass distortion this thing can emulate quite closely.
