100$? You can get them much cheaper used… And seeing that your canadian too, these days it’s better to sell than buy… So less pedal buying for me these days.
December 3, 2008 at 6:16 pm #88276julianModeratorThat’s what everyone thinks
but if you can afford to spend your money, it’s best right now to snatch those cheap deals. When the economy is bad it is the worst time to sell and the best time to buy.
If you fear for the value of the Canadian dollar going down, putting it into physical assets is a good way of saving.
Not to mention holding onto your money hurts the economy, spending puts money into the economy and helps everyone.
People’s reluctance to spend money right now because the economy is bad is one of the biggest things hurting the economy.

hahahaha, that took me a while to get.

March 5, 2009 at 12:56 pm #94206ozzyfan51_99MemberGreat sounding fuzz! Played through single coil (American Strat) produces almost glassy, alternative sounding distortion (through my setup anyways). Humbuckers really set this thing off, though. Sounds very good, can almost get a Jimmy Page like tone even playing a Hamer Duotone! I use it with either one of my Strats, my Jackson, or my drummer’s Hamer- takes a bit of tweaking to get the tone you want, but that rings true to any stomper.

Indeed a classic and used by many. Single coils and Muff go together well. Play around with your Guitar’s Volume and Tone Controls and you can dial in something great. Fuzz On Fuzz Off.

it will shake you and the ground you’re standing on.March 19, 2009 at 11:56 pm #94694Ned FlandersModeratorWho cares if a muff is noisey when your not playing, you dont do gigs to not play or sit down with your rig to not play.
April 14, 2009 at 8:57 pm #95648BlueSteelParticipantI cant believe i never mentioned that when i first got a big muff pi, i was extremely blown away by it’s amazingness, i love this pedal and would never get rid of it. :rawk:

….the people that plug into 20 pedals with them all turned off just to show how great the bypass is…..”listen, hear how uneffected my tone is” …… play a few blues riffs, pack up and go home.

Our old practice space had flo-lights and it made everything sound like a robot having a breakdown in a filing cabinet…tinny and humming. -
