Well, after playing with the Nano Muff for a while and comparing it to all my other Muffs, I still prefer the V6 tone to all of them. This Nano is better than the one I tried out at Guitar Center, but I’m playing it with MY guitars and amps now. The amp they had set up in store was pretty crappy (I believe it was a Line 6). Anyway… I love the small size and the big sound that comes out of it. Now I’ve ordered a Bass Big Muff and a Holy Satin to play with. I’ve heard the Bass Muff is very similar to the old green Sovtek muffs. The Stain is mostly for the delays, tremolo and octave effects, but it does have a fuzz circuit, too! We shall see what we shall see.
I just opened my Big Muff Nano and found it is made in China. I will probably return it. I was under the impression all EH stuff was made in NYC. Will I ever learn…?
The pcbs are made and stuffed in China. They’re then shipped to the US, put into housings, and tested at the NYC office. FOXX did the same thing back in the 70s except with Mexico.
Thanks for the info.
I have a nano and a full sized NY Big Muff. I set the controls at 12 o’clock to compare them. The Nano is a little bit louder and like another poster said, “angrier.” The NY Big Muff is a little smoother and more Gilmour-ish, which is what I’m after. They are very close in tone though and the nano is very usable. No worries there. Just EQ it a hair.
Dear EHX,
will there be other BM Variations in the future? like Ram’s Head, Triangle, IC …?
Thx!
Chris
