The dude from Stomp Under Foot just PM'd me after setting up a account on this site to see if I was planning on selling these.... very interesting :lol:

I advised him as was stated in my first post..."I FINALLY made myself an IC Big Muff..."

and if I did sell some I would change the name as he had it first...

but he was very nice about it...... so props for that

Matt, good to see u aboard our Forum.... We both love BMP's so if you wanna talk shop drop in

It's always nice to find other Muff junkies.
It's great that you did a vero of the Big Muff.
I love to use vero and perf but it takes longer.

definately is very time consuming....alot of counting rows.... Obviously the 77 and 78 are very similar... do u play with the cap values (C8/C13 on the '77 or C8/C14 on the '78 ) stock is 4.7uf but alot of peeps like the 1uf here... I went with the 1uf.... it seemed to give a fuller tone...

Mike...have u played with these values as well?

Yup I've done a lot of messing about beyond the version I build as standard. It's a very cool circuit.
