Can someone tell me please, is the On/Off switch on the V1 Triangle Big Muff the same as the tone bypass switch on later models, or does it serve a different function? Thanks,

Ah, I think I see; please correct me if I am wrong here. So in the original, the stomp switch NOT being of the true bypass type, the battery would be “on ” constantly and would run down quickly. Hence the On/Off switch. This would render the effect unuseable when turned off and would be unnecessary in the conjunction with a true bypass stomp switch.
No, on the early units they didn’t use stereo jacks on the inputs to switch the battery on/off so it was done with a slide switch. You could then leave your guitar plugged in and just set the switch to OFF to conserve the battery.
