Looks good.

Here’s what the Sovtek Deluxe Big Muff Pi provides:

1. MIDS EQ – Parametric MIDS EQ section with a selectable center frequency ranging from 310Hz to 5.0kHz, a level control with up to 10dB of boost or cut and a high/low Q switch that sets the resonance/bandwidth of the EQ

2. FOOTSWITCH for MIDS EQ – Dedicated on/off footswitch with status LED for the MIDS EQ circuit

3. GATE – Noise gate to remove unwanted hiss and hum

4. BLEND – Mix control for the dry and distorted signals. Enables bass players to retain their signal’s low end; also useful when layering in other distortion pedals

5. WICKER– With the switch up, high frequency bandwidth is opened up for a more pronounced attack. Switch down yields the traditional Green Russian sound.

6. EXPRESSION PEDAL INPUT – Sweeps the frequency of the MIDS EQ to create wah wah and cocked wah effects

7. TRUE BYPASS – Maintains signal path integrity in bypass mode

8. INTERNAL INPUT BUFFER SWITCH – An internal slide switch to engage a buffer on the Big Muff’s input circuit that increases the high end content of both the distorted and clean signal being blended in

9. MIDS EQ TRIM POTS – Three internal trim pots for adjusting (a) High Q bandwidth, (b) High Q output volume and (c) overall MIDS EQ output volume.

So much win in one chassis. This could easily replace 2 Muffs in my current collection.

It looks great but I would be much more excited about it if it were in a Blurst sized chasis

This seems pretty cool, I have owned a ton of muffs modified to do what this one does stock

Kinda glad EHX is getting paid for this stuff now (even though EHX still bums me out a little)

If I already own a Deluxe Big Muff and a Musket, am I missing out on anything?

Depends how you use it, but probably not. The DBM does not have the Tone Wicker control like the Sovtek DBM does, but you can get in a similar territory with the pre, mids, and focus controls on the Musket.

I was listening to that video without watching it and I couldn't tell which is which! ANd the mid control on the DBM is really super powerful!

I have been reading up on these more today, kinda starting to want one
gated muffs are awesome
the wicker muff was way underrated
I have a musket as part of another combo pedal so I am not sure this would actually make it onto my board, but it is super flipping tempting.
