For folks who remember the Big Muff sound or are looking for something of that sort, this pedal is not that at all.

This pedal is basically two Fuzz Face pedals with extra tweakable controls added. It's a high-gain two-transistor fuzz (i.e. Fuzz Face) going into a low gain two-transistor fuzz/overdrive.

From the most comprehensive website on Big Muff variants:
"This is literally a fuzz tone lab. No deep, scooped mids, or huge Big Muff tones here."

This is a 14 years old product, is it still worth buying?
Many pedal circuits are decades old (especially fuzz pedals). If it sounds good, it is good.
