Electro Harmonix Muff Overdrive and Double Muff

[jma111000]

Guys check out the metal muff if you want some hardcore distortion. I have that petal, it's awesome.

Does the double muff have that kind of big muff mid scoop? Would it be suitable as somebody's primary dirt pedal?

@ChickenFaeces I've written a really in depth review on my blog about the double muff (thepedalguru.co.uk)

In short- the Double Muff doesnt have the Bog Muff scoop, but that is a good thing if you like cutting through in a band. If its good enough for your primary dirt pedal really depends on your amp- it really sounds completely different on two different amps.

I read your review of the pedal. Very comprehensive, extremely helpful. I have just one more question, and I apologize, but it seems like it's kind of hard to answer since this pedal is so damn touchy. (but if it was easily answered, I probably wouldn't be asking it, lol).

How do you think a Double Muff would sound on an 80s Fender Solid State? (The exact model is "Fender M-80").

@ChickenFaeces Thanks, glad to hear it!

It will probably sound pretty good on a Fender amp (I'm guessing that its got a pretty good clean channel). In my experience with the pedal, the better the clean generally the better the sound (I'll add this to my review, makes a lot of sense!) It might sound quite bright though so keep your guitars tone control handy, but I'd definitely give it ago!

does the muff overdrive produce a nice crunch sound? ie for stuff like metallica?

[pheonix320]

@Acorporate3world You can get nice crunch sounds off it. Not too sure if its a Metallica crunch though

How would the Muff Overdrive sound on a semi-hollow guitar? I'm pretty interested in getting one. Thanks!

@arosselotv I dont have a semi hollow guitar, but im pretty sure it would sounds good!
