    From The Site:

    You may have heard that for a period of time in the 1970’s, Electro-Harmonix changed the circuit of their legendary Big Muff Pi* from one based on discrete transistors to one based on integrated circuit operational amplifiers. This is true.
    As a matter of fact, the opamp Big Muff Pi was the first fuzzbox I ever fell in love with, back in 1983. I didn’t know that it was an opamp one until I bought my own Big Muff and thought it sounded different from my friend’s. His later needed repair, and when I opened the case to check it out, I saw that the printed circuit board had a pair of integrated circuits on it, where mine had transistors.

    Over the next 20 years, I never again encountered a Big Muff Pi made with opamps. Mike Matthews of E-H went out of business a couple of times, then got into the vacuum tube business, started making Big Muffs again, and then launched a new Electro-Harmonix with a mix of historical E-H effects and new ones. Still no opamp Big Muff Pi.

    Man... I've been dying to hear clips of this pedal, it sounds absolutely killer... smooth, huge sustain... how is it for the heavier sorta drop tuned chordings? And background noise?

    Awesome playing, thanks bro!
