I like the sound of the greens more than the blacks, but I never spent lots of time with a black.

I'm glad people are diggin' the thread.

i should add my list of muff reviews. . . .

what if we did a collective muff review?

I think that's what I hoped this thread would sort of become.

So, yeah, awesome!

Damn, I wish I would've known you were doing a Muff shootout. I would have sent you one of my Muff builds for testing.

Here's a demo of a Mayo-like pedal I did (values were somewhat close, but the transistors were plain old new-stock stuff), versus an actual Skreddy Mayo:

It wasn't me that recorded the demo, it was the guy that bought it.

the only Muff i've ever had was an original NYC which i played through in 1982-83; it combined characteristics of SR's NYC Reissue and Tone Wicker descriptions. the effect started with a pretty extreme distortion and went from there into full OTT mode, and was really only controllable in terms of feedback etc. at the lowest gain setting. the sound was dense but trebly with the Muff's tone backed way off, and unbearably shrill with the tone rolled up. in retrospect, it would have been better for a different style of music than i was playing at that time, and/or with a different amp/speakers.

Your build is awesome!! waaaaaant

Installed Brown Muff and Tar+ (RAT/Distortion+) Zimcards in my Foxrox Zim today - very impressed. The Brown Muff is....serious business. Wish he sold these as stand-alone units with the voicing circuit.
