Green Russian Big Muff

Product Information

It's all here in one integrated pedal. The Sovtek signature sound. The devastating low end, crisp highs and non-scooped mids, plus the advanced control of the Deluxe Big Muff in a single, completely integrated pedal. EHX’s response to boutique builders expanding on their circuit is the highly tweakable Deluxe Big Muff. The 90s Russian Muff is the basis, but with a noise gate, parametric EQ, and bass boost switch, this pedal is a tonal powerhouse. The real selling point is the mid boost footswitch, which allows you to cut through any mix without the help of another pedal. Reissue of the original 1969 Big Muff Pi (V1), with nano-sized chassis and powered by 9V. The pedal was released in honor of the 50th anniversary of Electro-Harmonix.

We've kept the familiar Sustain, Tone and Volume knobs, and we've added a ton of extras from the Deluxe Big Muff for those who crave its deep sound shaping abilities. While the Tone Bender and Fuzz Face pedals are often used by players in search of a vintage tone, the Electro Harmonix Big Muff Pi has truly found a home on the pedalboards of a younger generation of guitarists and bassists. Power Supply: 9-Volt battery or optional 9V power supply from Electro-Harmonix, 9.6DC-200BI (same as used by Boss™& Ibanez™) 9.6 Volts DC, or other AC adapters capable of delivering at least 30mA.Here's our list of Top Essential Grunge Guitar Gear, what the legends of the genre played & the best grunge guitars & pedals.

Film capacitors were used, as well as flat, rectangular green or red ceramic caps, and occasionally round ceramic disk caps. No electrolytics were used, other than the polarized 20-22uF power supply filter cap. Released by Sovtek, made in Russia, It has army green chassis, used the same circuit as the "Red Army Overdrive" and "Civil War".

The green color also varied during the production as you can see by the photos below, though some of the variation in color is due to different lighting and white balance conditions of these photos. Most were an olive-drab military green, though some were a shade lighter or darker, and some were bright grass-green. I assume the St. Petersburg factory must have had problems with consistency from the paint suppliers in Russia. The paint on the first edition Tall Font green Big Muffs was very poor quality and literally flakes off. Most Tall Font Russians are like this, but later Bubble Font Russians have better paint.

The main difference in the graphics is the position of Made in Russia.

The smaller V8 box and fewer screws were an attempt to keep the cost down. Get the original, incredible, legendary Russian Big Muff sound from a brand new, pedalboard-friendly pedal.

Stomp Under Foot Green Russian

Of course, another great aspect of the Russian Sovtek Big Muff that really upped the "cool factor" was its military green metal chassis and so, with this new reissue of the I know there is a lot of variables but what Muff with that Laney amp would you like? I like the tones of the Newer EHX Green Russian but I don’t know if it will sound warm and creamy as you say or sound like a fart another Bjorn quote.
