I just bought a GGG muff (I wasn't sure if this should go in DIY, but I think it's still relevant), and am not sure what version to make. Was thinking of doing the "GGG tuned" one since it's suppose to sound similar to a Bluebeard. I've never played the Bluebeard, but I like what people say about it. Anyways what say yous?

P.S. I'll probably end up using it for basssssssssssssssss.

PPS I think late '70s is Civil War muff?

Op aaaamp!!!! Wait, that's not really an option. I really like the Violet Ram... but I play guitar. If I were to play bass I would probably do some sort of a Green Russian... with clean blend of course.

SOVTEK V1 AKA CIVIL WAR

I'd say Green Russian, bubble font.
Lots of bass on those suckers.
But, I have two Bluebeards, so...........

I pretty much love them all but since I rediscovered my black Sovtek Muff that's been my jam. It sounds so incredible through my half stack I ditched my Skreddy and actually all of my other fuzzes and I haven't looked back.

I think the best versions for bass are Sovtek, triangle, or Supa Tone. The Supa Tone is possibly the most kick ass bass fuzz ever.

PNP Ram's Head 2n5087 or NPN FS3699/2n5133

Yeah dude Ram's Head all day

The GGG kills on Bass

For bass the Green Russian will be the way to go...and it will sound sick on guitar too.

For bass? Has to be a Jumbo Tone Bender

Green Russian. So grindy and heavy and with tons of low end.

Honestly, I think maybe the early 80s transistor ones (Kitrae would call it a V6).

Blunderbuss

also you NEED to install a switch to take out the tone stack. You need those mids.

My favorite is op-amp. Next favorite is probably any of the Russians, because they tend to be lower-gain and are more grindy and less creamy. The creamier ones tend to make a bass disappear in the mix.

By the way, late 70s was the original black and red NYC muffs. They didn't move to Russia until the late 80s/early 90s
