I just bought a Russian Big Muff..The pedal sounds great but when turned off won’t let any sound threw..Is this normal or is there something wrong with this pedal?
When i go from fuzz to bypass the pedal will often cut out / be at a massively reduced volume and i need to wiggle the switch to get the bypass sound.
I’ve been advised to fit in a new switch but haven’t got round to it yet. In the mean time i’m using a bypass loop pedal to go from fuzz to bypass.
If any one has suggestions outside of this please say.
(Also switch cleaner gave a temporary improvement).

sounds like the switch for sure… if cleaner gave a temporary improvement try more cleaner and press the switch continuously for a few mins (or until you get bored) it might do the trick, if not I’d re-solder the switch and if it still plays up replace it.
