    Alt title: shootout between the pedals that were used on nevermind

    They different animals. For studio use the RAT delivered the “most professional” tone, if that makes any sense.
    The DS-1 sounded pretty gnarly, in a rebel teen way. I like rebel teens. Also I like to observe how this supposed distortion unit can have fuzzy characteristics. I really enjoy that.
    Finally, the Big Muff sounds like the town is being invaded by a huge army. As it should be.
    If there’s any choice to be made here, it really depends on what kindda music one makes and plays.

      I use the Boss DS1, I gave it to mate to play bass through but when we record I use it with a little practice amp ( gorilla).and I can get to sound like a Saxophone using a LP special with the single coil pickups(The neighbours say "I love the sound of that saxophone)?

      Rats probably my favourite too, only because it doesnt scoop the mids. The other two do, and from experience that kills your tone and volume live.

  • @bretfuzz925
    @bretfuzz925 2 роки тому +16

    I have had all 3 of those pedals at different points in time and they are all very good pedals. Different guitars, amplifiers, speakers, and signal chains make a huge difference in how they sound. Additionally, as was brought up by other commentators, the settings of the knobs is also key to getting the best sound out of either. Some rigs sound great no matter what you put in front of them.

  • @jmch6359
    @jmch6359 2 роки тому +18

    Anytime you move the distortion dial past noon on a DS-1 you should turn the tone anti-clockwise to get fatter tone. Otherwise it goes too bright and fizzy. It can sound very natural with the drive all the way anti-clockwise, and the tone around 10 O' Clock as well. Quite versatile compared to most other distortions.

    BOSS DS-1 has that unmistakable "can of bees" buzz to it. Certainly less Fuzz and more Distortion than the other 2, but all are classics for a reason. And all can be found used for a steal.

  • @jetjaguar72

    The Rat certainly feels like the middle point between the clinical DS-1 and the fuzzy Muff. I love my Rat. I have a Shin Ei Companion clone that sounds like a chainsaw in a blender, just like the Jesus and Mary Chain like it... Pretty over the top!

  • @stevehansen4755
    @stevehansen4755 3 роки тому +16

    To me the RAT is more open and less compressed sounding than the other two. I would be inclined to use the Big Muff or Boss for the power chords and then the RAT for the lead. That way two different flavors. Also the sweet spot on the Big Miff is with tone a little bit brighter than that.

  • @blues62751

    I was always interested in the Big Muff after reading when I was kid that Gilmour used one, but the one time I got to try one (same model you use here) in a store, I found it to be one of the nastiest, harshest sounding pedals I've ever played through. I realized later that you can make it sound great with added reverb and delay or studio processing, or maybe even stacking it with other types of drives, but I found it's own raw sound was just terrible, right up there with my old Shin Ei fuzz or DOD Grunge. I finally sold my Shin Ei for 5 times what I paid for it back in the late 70s, and I couldn't believe it had become such a cult pedal that anyone would be willing to pay that much for one. I still have the Grunge, but only because I eventually learned I could get a decent fuzz sound out of it if I stacked it with another drive pedal and an EQ pedal. I have an old Rat and I like that but I tend to find it sounds best set to barely breaking up and with some bass added back with an EQ. I think the most useable fuzz sound I've ever heard is the classic Fuzz Face, but these days I tend to just get good fuzz tones by stacking drive pedals.

    From a time ago, but i have experience with all 3 (i know i'm not alone ;)
    I bought a red script Big Muff new in '75, used it with a Cry Baby, nice little tube Magnatone amp and a Strat, well SG first.
    I loved this rig. Perfect for UFO, Trower, Yesterday And Today and 'Skynyrd stuff.
    A year later, i stop by the same shop like always but saw a new version of the 'Muff. Tried it and didn't like it.
    I know that EH would use what ever was available for parts (Tube Screamers from the '80s, same deal) so maybe mine was supposed to be sludgy,,,it wasn't. Screamed ! Then again, maybe they changed the circuit with the 'logo'.
    Gone so got nostalgic and tried one again about 20 years ago. Still didn't like it
    I have a DS-1. Got it about 10 years ago as part of in store credit for a Super Shifter that i didn't like. I hit a Bad Monkey or BBII first. Have tried to use it more since shut down free time,,,
    Nephew wants to buy an amp and pedal to go with a guitar i gave him (LP Special copy), he's like 14 in '84.
    Marshall Lead 12 combo and a Rat or SS Princeton style amp and a Tube Screamer.
    I suggested the latter.
    I don't know if he went back and swapped but heard he couldn't get the sound he wanted.
    Looking back, it was a great rig for a kid. To me it sounded crappy.
    He went semi pro playing all over the place so not all bad ;)

    …what’s your review of The Nano Big Muff pi? It has good grit on the fuzz side; I haven’t tried muffing much.

    Definitely the rat it rings. Have the other two but these are classic. Will look out for one.

      The Rat is a great versatile pedal can be used as a Overdrive, distortion and a Fuzz

    Yeah Rob the Big Muff. Argos are selling Hardtail Strats but they're not Bullets with no stripe down the back & only come in red or black only '£90. I wonder if they have the same measurements as the Bullets or the Affinity & if they are routed for humbuckers?
