Electro-Harmonix spent many months creating what we believe to be the best heavy metal pedal ever built. The Metal Muff utilizes three powerful EQ bands, including a midrange control designed for perfect contouring.
Along with beautifully sculpted mids, the Metal Muff offers commanding bass and defined top end–coupled with user-controlled distortion from pinched-edge to totally crushing–making it a heavy metal gold mine.

Electro-Harmonix (EHX) is a legendary effects pedal company founded in 1968 by Mike Matthews, known for pioneering some of the most iconic sounds in music history. Based in New York City, EHX offers a vast range of pedals, from the classic Big Muff fuzz and Memory Man delay to innovative effects like the POG and Freeze. Renowned for their creativity, durability, and affordability, Electro-Harmonix pedals have shaped the tones of countless musicians across genres, from rock and punk to ambient and experimental music.
Boost Pedal
A boost pedal is used to increase the overall volume or gain of an instrument’s signal, typically without adding distortion or altering the tone drastically. It’s commonly used to push the amp into overdrive, making solos stand out or increasing the power of the signal for a more pronounced sound. Boost pedals can also be used to emphasise specific frequencies, helping the instrument cut through the mix during performances.
There are different types of boost pedals, such as clean boost and colored boost. Clean boost preserves the natural tone of the instrument while increasing the volume, whereas colored boost can alter the sound slightly, adding warmth, presence, or a subtle tonal shift. Popular boost pedals include models from Xotic, Electro-Harmonix, and TC Electronic, each offering different features like EQ controls, low noise, and transparency, allowing players to tailor their boost to fit their unique playing style.
Distortion
Distortion is a type of guitar effect that alters the sound by adding sustain, harmonic richness, and a gritty or aggressive character. It clips the audio signal, creating a more saturated and powerful tone. Distortion is commonly used in rock, metal, and punk music, offering everything from warm, crunchy overdrive to heavily saturated, high-gain chaos. Unlike overdrive, which mimics the natural breakup of a tube amp, distortion produces a more intense, compressed, and processed sound. Popular distortion pedals include the Boss DS-1, ProCo Rat, and MXR Distortion+.

Muff
The Muff is a classic type of fuzz pedal, most famously associated with the Electro-Harmonix Big Muff. It is known for its heavily saturated, distorted sound, often producing a thick, smooth fuzz with a rich harmonic complexity. The Big Muff in particular has become an iconic pedal, widely used in rock, metal, and experimental music, known for its ability to create a sustained, creamy fuzz with a pronounced midrange and bass-heavy response.
The Muff design is typically centred around fuzz distortion, creating a fuzzy, saturated tone with a long sustain that can add both warmth and grit to a guitarist’s sound. Many versions and variations of the Muff pedal exist, such as the Russian Big Muff, Wren and Cuff’s Blackout series, and Moogerfooger fuzzes, each offering unique tweaks on the classic design. Muff pedals are celebrated for their ability to create massive, powerful tones, making them a staple for musicians seeking a distinctive, cutting-edge fuzz sound.
