5Finally!!  Aug 12, 2008 By T. Hofer
I've been playing bass for a few years now, and the majority of that time was spent trying to find a bass fuzz/distortion that worked best for me. I've tried everything, Woolly Mammoth, Boss ODB3, Turbo Rat, Blowtorch, I even bought a Line 6 Pod XT Live to try and model the perfect distortion. None of them would cut it. THIS pedal is the ultimate. It's got great bottom end, and plenty of fuzz. My personal favorite setting is with the toggle on Dry, and the tone and sustain knobs all the way up! This allows the majority of your signal to pass through undisturbed while giving you great fuzz on the top. It's the closest thing you will ever find to bi-amping one clean and one dirty signal. Fans of Muse, The Faint, The Mars Volta..... Buy this Pedal

4The Muff Redesigned. Amazing  Aug 21, 2008 By themanonthebass
I bought the bass big muff after figuring out Cliff Burton of Metallica used the Russian Big Muff. I tried that and it was amazing, so I figured they couldn't make it worse, only better. I was correct. I really like the distortion sound, and this pedal will not break. My complaint is that I use a musicman stingray which has one fat double pick up, making the sound really big and bassy. I love that, but it isn't beneficial to this pedal. I turn the EQ on my fender amp all the way up except for the treble i turn to twelve o clock, then on my bass I turn up the treble and midtone and turn the bass down to three o clock, effectively thinning out the sound yet keeping the horrible treble distortion sound away. It creates the perfect bass distortion. I plan on uploading a video of it on youtube under youtube.com/themanonthebass. Check it out. I recommend this pedal because it is awesome, and also because the sound of bass distortion is different than guitar distortion, and that's what makes this pedal unique.

5Great pedal for the price  Sep 12, 2010 By SF
Everybody else has said why this is a great bass fuzz, and I don't have anything to add that hasn't been said already, but some people wonder about how it sounds on the guitar. It sounds more or less like your basic Muff tone on your guitar amp, but running it through your bass rig is another story. Fans of Stoner Metal who want a good Electric Wizard tone should give this a shot. This thing is killer for guitarists with a bass rig, even my surf guitar can pull off a respectable Weedeater sound.

I play guitar and bass and this pedal sounds great with both, this is the best you can get at this price.

5Awesome  Nov 03, 2008 By Jeff Ladd
This is a great pedal. After doing weeks of research, I was about to pick up the russian muff, but this pedal popped onto the market.
I gotta say the bottom end is intense, while still giving a pretty defined muff sound. It's about as close to a bi-amped type sound as I've seen (think Muse).
Only downside is like any bass effect pedal, it gets a tad lost in the mix of a band, but stands out nicely on solos, or parts of the songs more focused on bass. This is a tight sounding effect too, it starts and stops when you mute, and doesn't spill over sounding all loose and undefined. There is a surprising range in this pedal, anything from a deep bass boost type sound to a treble focused distortion.

I use it on an active Laguna bass with Bartolini pickups, Ashdown 4x10 amp and sounds great.

5a must have  Nov 11, 2008 By M. Baker
i have have tried other distortion pedals for bass and find them quite thin. most drop the bass out and all you get is a crappy distorted sound. i want the bass left alone and that is what this pedal allows you to do. you get the best of both worlds in one affordable pedal.
