    I thought the Bass Big Muff was supposed to be sort of like a Green Muff

    I believe so. . .
    I haven’t played one yet and I haven’t seen any actual confirmation, but many people say it’s voiced much like a Green Sovtek. Which would make sense as to why it has the same color. I’m getting one next week.

    You can make any black muff into a green one by changing the value of 3 resistors, for the diagram PM me.

    AFAIK, the Bass Big Muff is supposed to be an updated version of the green Sovtek Big Muff that’s optimized for bass (so it’s not identical, but it takes its sonic inspiration from it). But I can’t see why it wouldn’t rock on guitar. After all, the Little Big Muff kicks butt on both ends of the spectrum. ;)

    Shortly before it was released, I shot an email about that very detail. Here is a bit from their response:

    The Bass Big Muff is based on a really good sounding current production Russian Big Muff (we don’t have any of the green ones unfortunately) with some changes to the Tone knob to make it sound better with bass. And then we added a switch to give a bass boost or mix in your dry signal or no change at all.

    If I weren’t already quite pleased with my Black Russian (named, get this, Black Russian), I’d get one.
