Welcome to Perky's Analog Gear Demos. Please subscribe for more demos of vintage & rare effects pedals!

Today, I have a really epic pedal that's been leant to me by my fuzz-building buddy Nick Williams (www.williamsaudio.co.uk - check out his work!!) This is an early '90s Russian-made Electro Harmonix Big Muff.

Al lower gain, it definitely sounds more like a distortion than a fuzz - but as you crank it up, everything gets nice & fluffy in the way that we know and love. Plus, the tone control is hugely powerful - taking us from a thick, warm scooped sound on one extreme to a buzzy, saw-synth like effect on the other.

What do you think? One of the best Muffs EHX have made? Or not for you? Comment below!

Guitar is a Gronlund R16 Junior with a Portertron pickup, recorded through a Dr Z Z-Wreck (Aston Spirit Condenser) and a Dr Z DB4 (sE Electronics RNR1 Ribbon) with a little room mic (Schoeps CMC6) blended in.
