Make way for the devastating sludge that approaches! You'll know the Big Muff name from the fuzzy havoc that its wreaked for decades, and the Green Russian is arguably one the most formidable in the range.

Authentic Reissue

Electro-Harmonix have unveiled an authentic recreation of the Green Russian Big Muff in a tough, compact unit. Its khaki-green uniform exterior conceals all of the glorious original tone that cemented its ancestors place as a force to be reckoned with in the fuzz stompbox world. Many have tried to emulate it over the years, but nothing compares to the original! Although the original was an intimidating size, Electro-Harmoix have squeezed the same punchy sound into a handy single-sized enclosure! 

Tonecrusher!

This pedal aims to saturate your low-end frequencies and make your top-end distortion that little bit hairier. The old-school analog circuitry delivers a compressed, verging-on-broken sound that reacts uniquely to the gain structure of your amp; stack it on top of overdrive for a filthy snarl or use it independently for vintage-style attitude.

With the Green Russian Reissue, you'll be treading a fine line between overdrive, distortion and fuzz, giving you a classic, robust yet unhinged sound that edges you closer and closer to the danger zone!

Fuzz Pedals

Fuzz drives the signal into extreme clipping, often flattening the waveform and generating a thick spectrum of harmonics. Transistor type, bias, input loading and tone filtering create markedly different responses, from loose and velvety to gated, spluttering or octave-rich. Some circuits interact strongly with pickup impedance and guitar volume, while others include buffers or blends for a more consistent response.

Analogue

The signal is shaped by continuously varying electronic circuitry rather than being converted into a digital effect algorithm. Component choice, operating voltage and circuit tolerances influence headroom, noise, clipping texture and the small variations in response between designs.
