A good trick for comparison, to hear the difference between the big and small... is this: Big: 3:19 ... Little: 3:48 -- Big: 4:18 ... Little: 4:48 --- Big: 5:19 ... Little: 6:10 Section2: Big 5:27 ... Little: 6:21 --- (I was offered a "Little"... and am here doing research... )
The Little Big Muff was my first pedal. I got it for $20 bucks in 81' from a kid at school. I had a Kramer Pacer Series and shared a Roland Cube 60 keyboard amp with my older sister who played a Chapman Stick. When I stomped on that thing it was pure Heaven! "All Aboard!"
I've always read that there wasn't supposed to be a difference between these two. The LBM to me is a bit darker, not as compressed, and with single coils sounds incredible. The Big box BM I had in the past sounded a little more "fizzier" than the one you played. I definitely think I still prefer the Little Big Muff. How about a comparison between the big box Double Muff and the Double Muff reissue?? Great video though man!
Back in the late 70's when I was in my teens, had one, sounded great for my rock and metal bands. Of course, I never stopped to consider that it would remain a standard for going on 50 years. I either sold it or it broke and I discarded it, unless it's hiding somewhere in storage. And now, of course I want another one. The vintage>reissue BMP>LBMP, but footprint is a consideration on your footboard. Thanks for the comparison video.
There is noticeable difference. I own a big box reissue, a Nano version and I had a chance to try a vintage early 80s big muff and they all sounded different. They were great. My go to big muff is the op amp big muff Nano but you can’t go wrong with any big muff.
I liked the big bar steward , for looks and sound although I could live with either. I still wanna see the insides Rob . I'm curious wether the big boy has a small tag board inside and the little guy is stuffed to the gills lol 😊🎸
It's a shame they can't get the NYC "big" Big Muff in a smaller box with the same sound, it is superior to the little. Takes so much room on a pedal board! Sacrifices I suppose.
You guys know where I can find power adapters for that Big Muff? Actually I have DOD pedals and they look the same. I hate that they use non-standard adapter plugs!
Nice Video! Aye don’t know if you interested but was wondering if u could do a review on the squier paranormal series super-sonic just wanna hear your take on it cause I heard it gets out of tune a lot and would just love to see you thoughts on it.
I got a little big muff not long ago and it is cool. However, there is no Made in NYC big muff standard catchphrase on both pedal and on box, just like in case of the one used in the video. Is it possible it's a fake or maybe just newly produced with changes? I bought it new from established vendor but you know, that seems sus...
So is this piece of crap little big muff supposed to buzz louder than my actual playing? It sounds like absolute dogshit. Pretty sure i got a busted one. Go figure. I finally decide to get back into music and receive broken equipment.

Definitely a great addition to any pedalboard 🎸💪👌😎

I love the big muff. Just sounds so creamy to me. I've got the green russian reissue but I love all versions. Fantastic pedal.
They sure are great pedals 💪🎸
I’m voting on the original big muff
Yeah me too 💪🎸😎👌
Yup ,surprised how different they are
The little big muff sounds alot more compact, I much prefer the big muff pi
Damn I wanna go play cherub rock now but it’s 6am!
It's midday somewhere in the world 😂🤣
Lol

All muffs are great 😊

Yeah they're both awesome pedals I do still like the original 70s bushy muff goodness.
I'll be sure to make a video on the internals soon 😎💪🎸😊
@@theguitarmanifesto Nice one mate 😎👌

I think the Nano Muff is supposed to be the NYC muff sound in a smaller packaging, at least thats what the marketing says.
Thank you!! I was just about to buy one of these and was looking for a comparison! Clutch thanks again
Hope the video helps you decide 🎸💪😎👌
I noticed Siamese Dream settings in the thumbnail
Pretty much 💪🎸
Like that settings a lot
Great review... agree with what you said...
Thank you
Nice vid, woke me up for school haha
Good way to start the day
You guys know where I can find power adapters for that Big Muff? Actually I have DOD pedals and they look the same. I hate that they use non-standard adapter plugs!
eBay
Original sounds better more bite imo. What amp are you using???
I agree, I use garage band
@@theguitarmanifesto you enter directly in the sound interface with pedal?
Yes using garageband amp simulators
Nice Video! Aye don’t know if you interested but was wondering if u could do a review on the squier paranormal series super-sonic just wanna hear your take on it cause I heard it gets out of tune a lot and would just love to see you thoughts on it.
I'm waiting for a cheap used one to show up, I think the new price is a bit too high for my liking
I love the intro 🤣
Pure 80s cheese 💪🎸😎🤣
Nice video
Thank you 💪🎸😎
Its pronounced pie, pi os that symbol on front
Yep I say pie I want to eat a pie 😎 to me it's always P I I make my own way in life 🤣😂
Pie means foot in spanish
Foot pie 🥧😂

Because this one is the earlier issue the newer ones ain't made in NY
@@theguitarmanifesto same goes for Little Big Muffs?
Little big muffs ain't been round too long, guess they're all made in china now.
@@theguitarmanifesto Sad, but thank you for specific answer
No worries at all, it's a shame stuff gets outsourced to Asia to cut costs
What’s the first song he played? Is it anything in specific?
One of my theme tunes for the channel
@@theguitarmanifesto oh ok cool
Thanks
The little big muff sounds like shit but I like the normal one
😂😂🎸💪
Worst comparison ever, both muffs compared with different setup... not help at all
You're welcome 😁
Yo momma not help at all
So is this piece of crap little big muff supposed to buzz louder than my actual playing? It sounds like absolute dogshit. Pretty sure i got a busted one. Go figure. I finally decide to get back into music and receive broken equipment.
Nope sounds like it's faulty
