    I sound like a broken record, but I would like to see a dedicated EHX Uni-Vibe pedal.

    When I get a new pedal, I usually place it in that generic pedal order: comp-od/dist-mod-dly/rvb. Once I get to know the pedal, then I start to move it around.

    This pedal is really ssttling in now. I’ve been running an OCD or FD2 after the BMw/TW. These two pedals stack very well with it.

    I’ve been getting a monsterous tone with my LP Jr w/P-90 —> BNw/TW —> OCD —> AC15. Reminds me of a Hendrix boot I have, where his amp sounds like its going to explode.

    It is a cool pedal. Mine has been collecting a little dust. Gonna have to take her around the block a few times.

    Get both!!!

    The BMWTW is fairly inexpensive. So what you get for the money, it is all good.

    You can’t go wrong for $89.00 US….. True Bypass and Dangerous!

    … and I paid even less then that.

    It comes stock with a 24volt adapter. I found a 14volt adaptor that had the same polarity and same size barrel jack. That alone got rid of 95% of the noise.

    Cool, what brand was it? My local shop didn’t have the correct barrel size.

    The only Big Muffs that I have, are the NYC and TW.

    Ok, Tonefactor’s clip gives a good demo of what this pedal can do. Though, in person, there are more highs.

    So far, I have only used my Strat and AC15. I a/b’ed it with my NYC Muff and they are the same.

    EHX has done a pretty good job in describing what the two features are:

    Taking the tone knob out of the pathway, really gives it some bite. I compare it to, putting a clean boost after my NYC Muff.

    When the Wicker is turned on, while the tone knob is functioning, adds more highs. If you have your tone knob set high, there is some background noise. You get some hissing, when not playing. I compare this with, running a treble boost into my NYC Muff.

    When the Wicker is turned on and the Tone is taken out, you get that raw, crunchy distortion/fuzz(depending where the sustain knob is set). Once again, you get background noise. It is more pronounced than before.

    This is not a negative review in any way. I don’t know of any distortion/fuzz pedal that is not noisy, when the treble and distortion are set high. If you like the NYC Big Muff, then you will love this pedal. Does everything, plus more. If you are in the market for a Big Muff, definitely get the Big Muff w/ Tone Wicker.

    My only negative comment is this. I do not like where the two switches are located. When I go to turn the pedal on or off, I worry about hitting the toggle switches. I know it is a tiny case, but I think they should have put the switches elsewhere. Maybe even used stomp switches over toggle switches.

    I would give it a 4 out of a 5.

    I still need to play it some more though. I’ll try different guitars and amps. We’ll see how, what I just wrote, holds up.

    Thanks for the thread!
    And are there any blank knob layout pics for EHX pedals, ‘cos it would be cool to have lots of them around to write down settings…

    They were brought up, I don’t think anything ever panned out. It would be nice to have these though.

    What sort of contests seem fun?

    Here is an idea for a contest.

    Make a demo up using a couple EHX pedals. The one, who can list the correct pedals used in the demo, wins!!!

    two questions:

    second question: since big boxes are going out of fashion and die-cast is totally in right now, is there any place to get the leftover big EHX enclosures?

    That would be cool!

    My local shop got this in Friday. I’m assuming other shops can get them now too.
