Product Description

In 1967 the legendary Mike Matthews started experimenting with circuits for the electric guitar, and by early 1969 he had created a circuit that has become one of the most legendary, collected and mythical pedals in the history of guitar effects. With 30+ versions made throughout its almost half a century lifetime, the Big Muff Distortion/Fuzz has personally pioneered the sounds of some of the biggest bands and musical movements in history. The Muffuletta is a tribute to the legend and story of one of the greatest pedals ever invented.?The heart of the Muffuletta is the fact that it replicates five (yes, five) classic Big Muff circuits from years gone by as well as a new and original JHS version for a total of six Muff models. All executed without any digital signal processing or digital emulation. When you choose a model, you are achieving analog tone that uses real components and values found in the original units. JHS has selected our favorite classic versions from the pages of history and made them available in one small format pedal that is easy to understand, operate and do what it should do: replicate rare, expensive, mythical and sought after versions of this circuit with ease.Looking at the pedal, there are four controls: Volume, Tone, Sustain and Mode. The Volume'' control works just like any other volume control allowing you to adjust the overall output of the pedal to your taste. The Tone control lets you brighten or darken your overall tone. The Sustain control is best understood as a gain or distortion control as it gives more distortion to the circuit. The Mode control lets you choose from our six different versions of the Big Muff on the fly. Looking at the Mode control you will see six icons around the lower 50% of the knob. Let''s take a look at each mode and why they made the cut to be in the ultimate Big Muff tribute.JHS - ''2015'' The JHS Muff is a JHS original take on the classic circuit. You will find this v
