Description
“With original late-70s Op-Amp Big Muffs selling for exorbitant prices, Mike Matthews decided to take the power to the people and reissue the classic pedal at a price that players could afford! The circuitry of the new EHX Op-Amp Big Muff Pi —sometimes also referred to as the IC or V4 Big Muff— has been faithfully re-created while several practical enhancements have been added including a compact, die-cast chassis and true bypass switching.” – EHX
“The Op-Amp Big Muff was popularized by the brilliant Billy Corgan who first used it on The Smashing Pumpkins’ epic 1993 album Siamese Dream. After he was videotaped playing and talking about the reissue, Billy stated: ‘The magic’s still in the box, I can still get what I’m looking for!’” – Mike Matthews
This pedal uses op-amps rather than transistors and three gain stages rather than four, to create its signature sound. With a more crunchy and defined distortion edge to the fuzz its great for classic grungy tones, as if being hit with a wall of sound.

-Controls: Volume/Tone/Sustain/Tone Bypass switch
-A faithful reissue of the original classic c.1978
-Big Muff Pi with a twist, retaining the classic fuzz tone
