Speaks for itself
Anonymous 24.04.2015
This little unit has been truly tried and tested. A child of the original Big Muff Pi, there really isn't any remote competition for bass fuzz effects when it comes to the Electro Harmonix Bass Big Muff Pi.

Electro Harmonix are one of the best in the business when it comes to effect pedals, and really put in the effort to ensure quality in all their pedals.

Firstly the sound. This thing can range from a light touch of high end fuzz to just slightly color your bass sound, to a crunching low or mid range Rumble distortion that will have you tearing through riffs. The addition of a three position flip switch allows the user to change the mode of effect they desire. The three modes are bass boost, dry and wet.

The build quality is fantastic on all EH products. No plastic here, the pedal body is made completely from die cast metal and so it can take quite a beating. The rotary knobs for the controls are premium plastic and give a good resistance when turned. To end, I just love the graphics EH use on their pedals. They are funky and fresh and really make the pedal stand out among the rest.

The only criticisms I would have is that it can take a bit of tinkering to find your desired sound even with just 3 variables on the device, but this has to be expected and oa not entirely a bad thing. As I have said the range of sounds this little unit can produce is vast, and that's a big achievement coming from just a small pedal. I would have like however some presets on the pedal just so I could quickly change to a new sound if I were playing live, but this is just a personal note.

I would highly recommend this pedal to live and studio players alike, as there is really no alternative. And at that price? You would be mad to pass it up.

Best bass fuzz
DrBoondigga 20.12.2017
This to me is the best bass fuzz out there.
I've been playing with it in gigs for 2 years and it hasn't failed me once , it took a beating a lot of times and it is in perfect condition.
The knobs let you manipulate the sound very easily and dinamically, and having that bass boost switch really helps out a lot when you are in need of a little more low end
10/10 would buy again

Bien

Faut aimer. mais reste un plus dans les effets ou un must si on décide de l’utiliser 90% du temps dans son set. Un peu difficile au début à calibrer sur une chaine d'effet. pour le reste... Ça pète pas mal et ça évite de faire un trou dans sa membrane pour avoir le même son!

Some great sounds
Colm 11.09.2013
This unit has some great features and allows you to get everything from "creamy" bluesy sounds to some pretty heavy duty overdrive. Its a bit on the big size and it is a bit noisy at times. The case is strong as it comes but the 3 knobs feel cheap, good value for the money though.
