Finally! Somebody who knows how to use a fuzz pedal without treating it like a distortion pedal. I believe that soaring leads is where the Big Muff shines, and when you're shredding with one, you're really missing the point of a SUSTAINER pedal. Great job.

Musty, a couple of suggestions for your channel if you don't mind. For your new videos: recording your tracks without the jam tracks, adding this later if you want - I'm sure most viewers want to hear the tone of each gear, from pickup to the speaker, by themself, not mixed because the jam track distracts from the original tone. And, a video where you try different settings on the Green Russian with your amp alone set up as you like it, and also changing them on the amp to see how it can sound bad, fizzy or muddy, if the setting is not fine on the amp side too. One of your videos I liked best is the one where you are seated on the floor setting up your amp and pedals with no jam track going on. Cheers.

The biggest problem with Muffs is cutting through. Most Muffs have a scooped eq, not conducive to cutting through. The best solution I have found is running a treble booster into the Muff. It also helps if you use a Muff that has a bit more mids, like the Russian Muff.

Hi Musty!! I'm the guy who asked you about big muff pi and AC15 amp having tone problems (muddy, dark and a lot of bass). I have changed the pedal order and it got a lot better. Now my chain is: guitar -> Blues Driver -> Big Muff -> Delay -> Amp. Also I had to find better eq setting in my AC15 like cutting tone, lowering treble a bit and so on. It got better but its not optimal as your tone. Thanks for your videos!

@michaelfowler3187 10 ай бұрын
I'm a huge pumpkins fan and use a Strat into ac15 finding muffs to not really work for big solos even though they sound great alone. I definitely noticed improvements when cutting bass before the muff, and they also seem to react well to taking more gain on, however I've found it tricky to "re-voice" the muff with pedals after it, other than an EQ or very transparent drive types. I think the foxx tone machine and a few other higher compression fuzzes can do great muff impressions too- stacking a few drives with lower gain and cascade into big saturation. Good luck!

Try a boost before the Muff, a common & obvs one for this is a tube screamer as it’s cutting the lows & you can shape the mids
@cactus-mcjacktus
@cactus-mcjacktus 10 ай бұрын
Try using the normal channel of the AC15, the Top Boost channel is famously not great with pedals. Using a mid boosted overdrive (tube screamers, klons and the like) before the big muff are great as well, especially live. You don’t even have to add gain, and it just helps push things along. Lastly, doing some research into which BM you’re using and the differences between them is worthwhile, as they all do things differently.

I bought a black Russian Muff in my 20s because it was cheaper than the US made Muff and I was broke from drinking with my friends 😂 I was shocked to learn years later that, ironically, the Sovtek Muff is worth a lot more than its NYC counterpart of the same era. I know just about every "secret to better tone" trick for the Big Muff but I'm surprised somebody said it sounds thin. That's literally the opposite of what a Muff sounds like.

@onlyusernameleft2
@onlyusernameleft2 Ай бұрын
@@mustyguitar I'm not sure how the it compares to the green Russian because I've only used the black and the current NYC Nano Muffs. It has an almost overwhelming amount of low end and it sounds cleaner, or less saturated. Almost like there's clean signal blended in parallel to the Muff's signal. But yes, the mid-scoop can cause the guitar to disappear behind others instruments. I never thought of using thin as an adjective to describe it. I use a Wampler overdrive with a 3 band EQ before the Muff in my signal chain. Volume at unity, gain at minimum, mids past noon, bass and treble to taste. Another overdrive, the Electro-Harmonix Hot Tubes, is my dirty boost/compression between the Muff and Modeller or audio interface. It's a very versatile and severely underrated overdrive and I think it's the lowest cost drive they sell currently. Truly a hidden gem.

Hey man. I just became a Patreon. I love your content and your explanations are so much better than the other DG tone channels. I wish I didn't have to sacrifice anything because your videos are so great. But I do. And I know you put so much work into your product. But your tone settings have always been a source of confusion. On the other "inferior" channels, they put actual pics of their pedals with the actual settings. This makes it so easy to screenshot and emulate. You, on the other hand place generic photos and describe your settings. What does V14 or Tone 13 even mean if there are no markings on the unit. In another video you described the RT 20 as "Wet 9 Dry 11". The RT 20 does not have these settings. Still with you brother. Just trying to give some constructive critique so we can better understand.
@mustyguitar
@mustyguitar 10 ай бұрын
First of all, thank you for the constructive comment. I love reading these. "You" are the reason videos are better than last year. And gonna be better next year. Second, everyone, and I mean everyone I interact talks like "gain around 12 o'clock" and it became this lingo. I just didn't think it would be that problematic, since, what else can that mean? on scale of what? Of course it's o'clock because it's like a standard. Or, or, maybe that's the way "I" think and yeah couple of other comments said the same thing, I should've add "o'clock" :) Third and most important, the actual settings are ACTUALLY at the screen of the start of each solo :) I don't know what's confusing about that, don't think this the wrong way, I'm really curious and expecting feedback on this. I just write on a plain background, with pedals, and settings, and even on my Patreon, I literally go pedal by pedal. How can that be confusing and how can I make this better? You can get screenshot of this video on the screens and of course play with them a little, I mean, that's obvious. How can EVERY SETTING give you the same result on different setup and different volume and different guitar and different room? How is 01:22 confusing? How is 09:54 confusing? Mooer has level, depth and rate. L-D-R. green russian has volume, tone, gain, V-T-G. Forth, I always experiment with settings, sometimes on some tone, I use RT20 with wet 9 dry 11 and sometimes I use wet 7 dry 12. There isn't a fixed setting for anything man. I share whatever I feel needs to be shared. If I liked rt20 on wet 9 dry 11 settings 5 months ago, and now favor 7 and 12, why would that be confusing or anything? They are both different sounds for different applications. On the turning away on this video has wet 9 and dry 11. Not now john has wet 7 and dry 12. AREN'T THEY DIFFERENT SOUNDING FOR DIFFERENT APPLICATIONS? :) Try them both, see for yourself. I used to use big muff on tone knob very low, it sounded good at that time for my taste, now I prefer to have a bit more treble. Doesn't that very common thing? I share both settings and if you use those settings, you get the tone on the video, of course every rig might differ and you might need to experiment. So I can offer you a refund if you're not satisfied with Patreon, instantly, like right now. I'm building a page there that's an archive, FOR ME FIRST. Most of the times when I prepare a video, I go back and watch it myself and say: "nice tone, sh*t, I'm gonna use the same thing now", because those sounds are a result of trying out several different pedals, hundreds of settings and countless hours. Or I say "how did I play this thing, let me check the tutorial or tab". If anyone wants to join the fun there, it's their call :) just like you, who are welcome! Honestly, I don't think this is confusing but rather very, very, VERY, VEEERY easy to understand. I f*kin wish there was a video like this back when I started this channel. I would give my right ball for this. Just a guy says he's gonna try to get stuff, (personally) sounds awesome, shares it, gives me all the pedals and settings. What else can there be in a video? Well, maybe "o'clock" :)

Hey Musty, great channel on Gilmour/Pink Floyd. Congrats. I saw the other day an old post of yours here asking advice about how to set up your Big Muff with your Laney Cub 12r because you couldn't get these great tones you achieve now. How did you do it? did you change the speaker or tubes on this amp? or is it just better settings on both sides? Cheers.

It wasn't the best idea. you know, it's funny, sometimes I record the best, THE BEST video. 2 months later it's crap to my ears like Stan Marsh from South Park. 5 months later I'm trying to get that exact sound again...

a big muff cannot get that sound, I tried countless settings with at least 5-6 different big muffs. personally I don't like that gritty fuzz sounds, I don't like pompeii sounds as well. So I didn't experiment with a whole lot of vintage fuzz pedals, but I played: - *sunface bc108* and it does great sounds regarding dark side and wembley 1974 sounds - *jam pedals fuzz phrase* great for dark side, even though it's germanium, maybe needs a bit more gain from the amp if you're playing low output pickups. you can use overdrive as well for boosting. - *boss fz-1w* PERFECT sounding fuzz for me, it's silicon, it's boss, powering is easy, sounds very good for pompeii and dark side studio tones. I briefly played it so I didn't try a whole lot of different sounds. - *Dunlop JHF1* someone from the comments recommended to me, I'm so sorry I can't remember the name :I sounds wonderful and has great clean up sound. Perfect for time solo and pompeii sounds. I tried a few different jim dunlop and a couple more "boutique" fuzzes but these 4 would be my choice. I'm gonna cover some 1972-1974 sounds in the near future when I get a few pedals in a few months, when I go to italy, so I can't give more defined answers right now. edit: honestly, the tone on echoes funky part, the one I played with big muff sounds very, veery good for my taste. Only 1975 LA concert has better sound than a big muff I guess, but this is my opinion and it always changes :D

I personally am first time hearing the pedal from you. I'm not pedal purist btw, most of the stuff on my channel, that I use very, VERY regularly are very cheap. BD-2, cheap mxr dynacomp mini, green russian, ram's head. these are not that expensive man, did you see some "boutique" pedals or whatever that means...

@@odeo- listening a lot of pedals without seeing them is really a game changer. I love doing blind tests. I always surprise myself. I did a lot a few years later and always landed on the pedals I'm using now. I'm gonna do a full pedalboard video. in the near future.

Hello, I have a Satisfaction Plus pedal. Do you think I can achieve a Glmourish tone wth it even if it does not have a sustain nob? Tx

I tried it on a guitar store very briefly, I think it's closer to fuzz face than a big muff. It's a tone bender type pedal? It would do better for earlier Gilmour tones I guess but don't expect a Comfortably Numb out of it. Just my opinion.

My question about the big muff: i use the green russian through the cub 12r 1w input but... if i use the vol knob past 9oclock on the big muff it literally blows the doors to the room off! How should i be using the volume knob?

If you want to push the volume of the pedal the more we reduce the gain on your app to a minimum

The "tone is in the fingers" BS annoys me too. Dynamics are in the fingers, but tone is in the gear. Not even the people who say that really believe in it. Otherwise they wouldn't be buying and pursuing specific gear.

Hey, whenever I solo using a big muff (I don't have this issue with overdrives), some of the notes (the higher the worst) cut after I play them making it impossible to sustain a note (like a noise gate that's too sensitive), anyone else has that issue ?

can you specify a little? what amp? what settings on the big muff? when are you losing sustain? on what fret?
