BASS BIG MUFF PI
Legendary Fuzz for Bass Guitar
Congratulations! You have just purchased the finest harmonic distortion-sustain device
developed to date for the electric bass guitar player: the Bass Big Muff Pi! The legendary
heritage is now tailored for bass, your sound possibilities will be greatly enhanced. Please
review this manual to learn the unique potential of this pedal.
The Bass Big Muff draws its roots from the legendary Sovtek battle-tank green Big Muff Pi,
from the late 90’s as well as from the original Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi from the early
70’s. These Big Muff Pi’s are often employed by bass players to thicken up their sound or to
give them over-the-top low end growl. The Bass Big Muff takes the best elements from both
of these classics and employs sonic elements that were specifically designed for your
bass.

CON ROLS -
Sustain Knob–
As in the original Big Muff Pi, adjusts the amount of sustain and distortion.
one Knob
–
provides a range of sounds from high treble to deep bass. The overall tone
filter frequencies were carefully chosen to enhance your bass guitar.
Volume Knob –
The volume knob sets the output level of the distortion. When the toggle
switch is set to DRY, the volume knob has no effect on the output level of your original bass.
Bass Boost/ Norm/ Dry oggle Switch –
This is a 3 position toggle switch that allows
you to choose three distinctly different sounds. In Bass Boost mode, the top position, a bass
frequency boost is added to the distortion. It is most effective when the Tone knob is set to
the upper or treble half of its rotation. In Norm mode, the middle position, you have the
pure tone of the classic Big Muff Pi. In Dry mode, the bottom position, the original dry signal
from your instrument is mixed with the output of the distortion circuit. The level of the Dry
signal is constant and will not change as you turn the Volume knob up or down. This allows
you to set the level of the distortion effect against your dry signal.
Bypass Switch and Status LED
- Toggles between effect mode and True Bypass. When
the status LED is lit, the effect is active. When the LED is off, the Bass Big Muff Pi is in True
Bypass mode.
