Currently Available Big Muff Question

Sign in to disble this ad
Any discernible tonal difference between the currently available Big Muffs? Any weird feature differences that aren't immediately apparent? There's the standard-sized USA Big Muff, a black Big Muff and the Little Big Muff - can anyone give me the quick and dirty differences?

I am leaning toward a little Big Muff for the sake of size alone, but I want to be educated before pulling the trigger.

Thanks!

Don't forget the Bass Big Muff. I've always loved the USA muff on bass, but I haven't compared one to my Bass Big Muff, which I'm really digging.

Haha, I didn't even know there was such a thing.

USA Big Muff / LBM = Said to be the same circuit, sound similar to me. LBM is smaller.

Black = Russian, no power tap... slightly more 'angry' sounding.

Bass = New circuit, with more options, configuration and knob sweeps geared more into the low end.
