Super!! Can't wait till it arrives.

Me either man, let me know when you get it and what you think of it.

Some details:

1. Comes with a battery installed.
2. Input jack is on the right as you look down on the pedal, output on the left
3. Battery is only connected when input jack in the pedal, so remove when not in use
4. Can be powered by a regular boss adaptor but not daisy chained

Fuzz - the amount of Fuzz
Bias - when turned off is out of the circuit and pedal behaves as a classic Fuzz Face. When raised this reduces the input signal to tighten up bass response or give you crunchy overdrive sounds
Contour - when turned off is out of the circuit and the pedal behaves as a classic Fuzz Face. When raised this increases the mid content of the signal and adds tons of glorious harmonics. This is my favourite control
Volume - makes the pedal louder or quieter, start at 1 o clock.


Basically have fun, you can get all sorts of sounds with this thing. When replacing the battery if necessary, unscrew the backplate and remove. gently unplug battery from snap and remove. Replace with new battery keeping hold of the foam which holds the battery in a VICE LIKE GRIP. When inserting new battery, wedge it with the foam. Replace backplate and screws.

Good to know and thanks for the rundown.

Went to guitar center and bought a one spot yesterday for it.

Haze I drilled your case last night and will prime and paint it tomorrow.
I don't think there is room on top for decals for the Gain, Presence and Volume controls along with the face decal, I might put them on the back of the pedal though instead.

I found out what the Bluesberry mods are and made them to your board, it sounds great.

man you rock mike, thanks for that

i was actually wondering how much it would be for you to rehouse my usa big muff pi
i need more space on my board and this thing is huge, would go with the little big muff but the BMP just sounds better to me

It would probably be a pain with shipping it both ways, I don't know how large it is but they can be rehoused. I prefer to just build Green Big Muffs from scratch

gotcha gotcha
i'll keep a weary eye out on a case and try it myself

So another pedal enters the ring:

Haze - Hotcake, orange with yellow LED. Board built and tested, case primed, painted, decal'd and lacquered. Will build this weekend. $120 (as I recall)

dots - MuffCustom, metallic green with Blue LED, Board built. Will have added mid control and Diode/LED toggle. $120

Haze wrote:yeah, lets do the hotcake then, i'll manage

yellow case w/ orange led [that was completly random]
i've got spare mini-mustang knobs
orientate it whichever way is easier, just jacks on the side

got a feeling i'm going to want a green muff after this
hotcake
box of rock
green muff
yummy

hopefully you ment that. if it is an orange case it's cool too, don't sweat it

DOH. I thought you said Orange with Yellow? Fuck sticks. Don't worry, I can lay yellow over the current orange and lay more decals, it'll just add a few days to the build, I want to get it right for you.

What a NoHo esque fuck up on my behalf

it's up to you, i'm fine with it being orange

I'll fix it, I'd rather you got what you originally asked for. Sorry, I should have double checked at the time. Ironically I bought the orange paint for it as I had run out. Doh!

alright, cool
just let me know when it's done

Fucking awesome demo. Not only do you bust out lots of tasty tones and make it sound great, but it's really well produced, I love the cutaways to the equipment when you're chatting. Brilliant, you've done me proud!

GREEN DAY TONEZ

I think the pedal sounds the best with the Fuzz maxed out, but that's jjust my taste

I've sprayed Haze's case Yellow and will be applying decals and lacquering tomorrow. I'll take some photos.

This is dots' Muff Custom:



And here is a Klon I'm building for myself for low-gain sounds in Sell Crazy

i'm pretty proud of my first effort. but i'm bummed because i neglected to say that i really love the fuzz tone I get from it. in fact, it's so good, it could end up replacing the actual OD tone of my amp in live situations...i'm not kidding! i love it that much...the clean tone on my amp is amazing...the dirt just sounds a LITTLE to harsh and brittle. but the twatbox really helps that.

oh, and maybe a better name is "box of twat" taking the piss on "box of rock? lol?

haha.. nice one. I'm really glad you like it. Seriously - nothing makes me more happy than when someone I build a pedal for is happy and satisfied with it.

I tested your brothers tweaked out Big Muff board today, it all works great and I've tweaked it to sound really fun I think. Hopefully it should be another hit.

i bet it will be. i'm just really impressed with you and aen. i mean, you make great boutique handmade to order pedals and they don't skimp on quality of build or sound.
