The red foot switch is a momentary that activates a feedback loop so I can make stuttery, tremolo style sounds with it.

The drone switch just lets me keep the feedback loop on.

The suck knob starves the voltage going into the circuit.

It's mad because my bass playing persona is "Mad Mike," and the LED is green because I like the color green. Other things are hiding inside as well.

how does the voltage sag treat the muff? ive never experimented with that and fuzz. wonder if its worth trying.

I'm not all that impressed with it in its own right, not nearly so much as on some more fuzz-facey pedals I've tried it on. It makes things darker and woolier with less clarity--no stutters or glitch sounds.

I wouldn't wire one in on a stock muff.

What it does do very well on my muff, is give me a ton of control over the feedback loop to get: great stuttering decay, control over the pitch range of the self-oscillation, and a few other neat tricks.

I have a double muff which I have modded with a voltage drop circuit (squelch) and a capacitor switch which shifts the low cutoff (turbo). The double muff is not a fuzz face/fuzz pi but a muff fuzz circuit x2. Its fairly boring sounding stock despite the "double fuzz". After tweaking the freq of the second fuzz and putting a pot across its transistors base It got a LOT more interesting. It competes with my Fuzz War. It also gets that stuttering to a halt fuzz sound as well.
The Fuzz war is insanely good. As in I didnt use any other pedal for a year after I got it. The only lameness is the volume pot has a funny contour. It's very hard to get an even volume between the clean and fuzz levels. The volume will go from teensy to HUGE in a fraction of an inch.

The bassballs has a fuzz built in but it's almost useless.
