    It is a renovated classic pedal FUZZ LOW very good report quality price. This is the version for the Lower MUFF famous guitar ..

    SOUND QUALITY

    This is the FUZZ therefore very spcial we like it or not this is. You really have to try it because it may not appeal.
    I found lai intressante but not my taste, I was looking for something much typ.

    NOTICE GLOBAL

    Good pedal with excellent value for money prices! That said I find the sound too simple, a little lack of character what.
    That said she likes a lot of bass player and I understand everything.

    a very thick fuzz, which can boost the bass level, thanks to the switch, or mix the dry (no effect) and fuzz.

    UTILIZATION

    super simple to use, the manual am useless ... the dry mode gives clear sound and fuzz, the volume will be the proportion of the fuzz (like the bass sound of the verse "salute your solution" storytellers). Otherwise the gain is quite linear (there better) and the tone is fairly broad.
    the volume? uh ... it manages the volume ...

    SOUND QUALITY

    really the problem with this pedal is what can give the worst and the best, it depends on your gear ... with a big Ampeg svt sounds to death with a small amp ... it sounds like a series of pet. it really is t…

    SOUND QUALITY

    really the problem with this pedal is what can give the worst and the best, it depends on your gear ... with a big Ampeg svt sounds to death with a small amp ... it sounds like a series of pet. it really is the "problem" with this pedal, if the amp has no character, the pedal either.
    It is also quite nice on guitar, it makes a big muff and heavier. tested on a vox with a strat, I dare say that the sound is good!

    OVERALL OPINION

    it is worth its price, well, watch the gear you goshawks!
    I would do this choice can not be ... a Malekko b: ass master can be.

    Fuzz pedal for bass, analog True bypass effect. One input and two outputs jack format that of the classic. Why 2 out? An output Out Effect, effect signal and an output signal Dry out with no effect.

    UTILIZATION

Provide even a minimum level of grip, just to find the right sound. The range is relatively wide, the possibilities are numerous.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Question fuzz it is served, the sound is big, slimy and dirty desire, without losing nuanced if the effect is set to light. Pushed into a corner, the subtleties of the game are clearly blurred, of course. But no matter, the aim being to give volume and body, and on that point the contract is completed. The effect is effective, the sound is rich, the countless settings that you will definitely find your own.

    OVERALL OPINION

    I use it for over a year, but sparingly, my musical style not being wild rock. Nevertheless the effect is interesting on some passges that require sending heavy. Pedal exudes strength with its robust metal housing (the trademark at EHX) the proposed price to a really tight all.
    This pedal has become over time a standard kind of quickly finding its place in the bass pedalboard.

    Nothing to add

    UTILIZATION

    Easy to use. Is there a manual? Oh.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Used with a bass. It's effective, it's the least we can say! I do not use it alone. In fact, I put it just before Bass Balls (without its own overdrive): I think the effect is better than the Bass Balls alone because its canned serious distortion unlike the Bass Balls.
    If any one is still an effect a bit too much for me: I prefer overdrive.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Used for a year on some songs. I do not regret my purchase.

    The basic fuzz

    Electro-Harmonix Bass Big Muff PiPublished on 11/04/12 at 11:48
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    Fuzz analog, true bypass, on 9V. Classic.
    Ditto for the controls: it sets the tone with the color, adjusting the distortion with sustain, it adjusts the overall volume of the pedal with the volume.
    Variation compared to the BM standard switch. I come later.

    UTILIZATION

    This is very, very simple. If you want the fuzz, it's good, we find.
    It is robust, but it is mass produced so it's not the best insulation in the world when there is noise on the line (electrical noise). But hey, if you intend to engage a priori is that you are playing, so not too much risk to hear what discomfort.

    SOUND QUALITY

    Used on low, of course ...
    The bass boost is interesting in register 'big sound blurring, which can be nice in the notes very serious (5 strings for example), in particular electro, I found. By lack of aggressiveness against it for true rock sound. At the same time it's fuzz, no distortion!
    That said, incorporating mode 'dry' + a little overdrive before, it's not yucky ... Finally though, but in a good way. Very good for those passages where the bass is a bit lonely and needs more snoring compensate for the lack of guitars.

    OVERALL OPINION

    This is not the fuzz that is most in originality, but it does its job. I blame him especially his side a little 'flat' compared to other fuzzs more typical and more dynamic, but it is surely what made it successful for those who just want to taste it without going much further.
    In short: not the best, but the one you need if you want to dip a toe into the world of fuzz without breaking the bank ...
    I'm pretty fast for a separate B: assmaster of Malekko for the less typical ... I then went back with a Eau Claire Thunder in the same genre as the BM but also nag with more bite. But in my humble opinion, the top remains of Pharaoh Black Arts in Toneworks. Much more versatile for my taste.
    After that, it is a question of budget!

    Super Fuzz

    Electro-Harmonix Bass Big Muff PiPublished on 06/01/11 at 14:21
    (This content has been automatically translated from French)
    This is a pedal fuzz / overdrive analog.
    3 connection: IN, OUT and Dry
    Metal case, it looks robust.

    UTILIZATION

    So I just get a lot for galley to find the right sound, or rather what I want.
    This pedal is very good when the screaming, but when it comes to just warm up the atmosphere, well it's not that great.
    Mode can be reached by dry mixing with the sound effect and sound effect without compromise.

    SOUND QUALITY

    I use it with precision habits and an amp ashdown ABM 500.
    It was a very good sound quality when you do muse. on the other hand por pieces of black or blur it was too extreme.

    OVERALL OPINION

    Pedal very good in his field (fuzz) but quickly finds its limits when he asks for less. However I find the sound better than odb3 boss sounds like a swarm of bees.
    A remake a choice I will take this pedal in conjunction with a tube screamer or a pedal in this style.
