I'm questioning the NOS NKT275's as well. I know Dunlop has been doing a reproduction.

Although if these really are NOS NKT275's, and these muffs are affordable, tons of gearheadz will buy them just for the transistors to make fuzz faces.

I think what they did was took the Big Muff schem and split it into two, allowing you two turn on the first two or last two gain stages independently.

Of course I think it's more complicated than that, but it has the word "BIG" in it, meaning that's it's not just using Muff to mean dirt like the Muff OD, English Muff'n, or Metal Muff.

I'd want to open one of those Muffs up just to see how they did this. Why did they only put the tone stack on the "OD" side?

I'm a fan of dual dirt boxes, and I'm sniffing around for a Big Muff fuzz, but I'd have to hear one of these.
