Greetings fellow EH lovers. New member here, but a LONG time user of Big Muffs. I bought my first one in 1973… a Rams Head. I had seen an advert in Creem Magazine from EH and it featured the Big Muff Pi (along with the Black Finger, LPB1 and Bad Stone… and other sundry pedals). I had also heard this amazing guitar solo on a Carpenter’s song that absolutely mesmerized me (Goodbye to Love). Then I found out the solo sound was created using this “Big Muff Pi” thing I saw in the ad. I immediately went to a small local music store and, lo and behold, they had a used one someone had returned because they didn’t like the sound. I wound up purchasing it for $25! I LOVED that pedal! I used it a lot in a band I was in until I let a “friend” borrow it. That was the last time I ever saw my Rams Head Big Muff. I tried to get it back, but he was sent away to Vietnam and none of his family knew where it might be. He wound up dying in a training accident and that was that. “Sniffle” I’ll never forget that first Muff. I keep thinking it might be in someone’s closet or something all this time. It had the sweetest tone and a singing sustain that would make the hairs stand up on the back of your neck. I now have a 79’ish V6 Muff, which I like a lot, too. I also have a Double Muff, Metal Muff, Germanium 4, Little Big Muff and the new Tone Wicker Muff (which REALLY kicks some gluteus maximus). I almost bought a Big Muff Nano recently, but the tone just seemed a bit weak and muted to me. I’ll probably still get one sometime later. The Germanium 4 is a very interesting cross breed that can produce some very nice tones, almost as sweet as my old Rams Head… or maybe it’s just nostalgic memories. Anyway, I have been lurking here and reading a lot of the excellent stuff you guys post and decided to register and say hello. So… hello.
