Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi with Tone Wicker Distortion Pedal

You've heard this pedal before! Go for the original and legendary Big Muff sound, or flick the Wicker switch for a thick, distorted growl with top-end bite.

Sound
Every bit as good as the original, with some very useable, fuzzy alterations.
Features
Cool tweak to the original pi that gives some great variations on a proven classic
Value
If you know the Big Muff pi you know it is one of the most useable musical and dial-able heavy fuzz with gorgeous sustain. It is just a fantastic fuzz/distortion for under 1 bill. This model is an even better value because it IS the original with a little more versatility. Can't get better fuzz for under 100.

"Great fuzz for a great price"

I'd buy this again if I had to. The Big Muff Tone Wicker has that great, classic fuzz feel to it, without the big price tag. Don't over-think this one, just get the pedal.
Sound
Sounds like good ol' nasty fuzz. Maybe not as over the top as some other fuzz pedals but to my ear this pedal produces some very usable and likeable fuzz tones. I was actually surprised at the range of sounds this pedal could cover.
Features
I bought this version over the standard big muff because of the additional tone options with the mini-toggle switches. I don't really use the wicker switch that much, but the tone bypass is pretty cool whether on or off. Also bought this one because it's about 1/3 the size of the regular.
Ease of Use
I mostly just set it and forget it with this pedal. Real easy to dial in whatever style of fuzz you like and then just leave it alone. Very reliable.
Quality
Seems to be built well enough. It's extremely light weight compared to my other pedals
Value
For 90 bucks, this is a heck of a good buy. Nice, full sounding fuzz for less than $100 bucks. Heck, it's hard to find any good pedals for under $100.

"Awesome Fuzz for under $100"

I would have to say I have tried several different fuzz pedals and this is definitely the one to buy if you have less than $100 to spend. Excellent sound, and incredibly durable. I love the Tone wicker and tone bypass switches because they allow you to tailor your tone more. Never been disappointed with an EHX product.
