J Mascis used an IC Muff? I always thought he was a ram's head guy :?:

That was my exact thought when I saw this pedal on my feed earlier.

He used the original deluxe big muff shortly, that's what they were saying. I didn't know the original deluxe was an IC

Yup, J used a Big Muff Deluxe on the first Dinosaur Jr. album. The original Big Muff Deluxe is a V4 Muff aka the op-amp or IC Muff.

Honestly all that functionality looks pretty handy. I wanna see what it sounds like with the gate knobs cranked.

The expression feature is kinda cool, in the middle part of the sweep, but sounds like shit on the top and bottom. Could be lots of fun if it can be dialed in just right.

They should do a vintage reissue series like Fender does…Smaller run, hand made, etc. Shit, they could even just work with Wren and Cuff to do it for them...

Aww what the fuck. How do you make an attack control that doesn't remove the attack?

The Deluxe Memory Boy, the Superego, the Hog, the Flanger Hoax and the Cathedral are all worth investigating too. Very good value compared to boutique options, of course.

Want it. The graphic isn't as bad as y'all make it seem. Think it's kinda cool.
