The circuitry of the new Op-Amp Big Muff —sometimes also referred to as the IC or V4 Big Muff— has been faithfully re-created while several practical enhancements have been added including a compact, die-cast chassis and true bypass switching.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e“The Op-Amp Big Muff was popularized by the brilliant Billy Corgan who first used it on the Smashing Pumpkins’ epic 1993 album \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eSiamese Dream\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e.

It’s a sound that’s been described by noted Big Muff collector and historian, Kit Rae, as: “a huge, crushing Big Muff sound with more crunch… great for grungy, wall-of-sound distortion, heavy rhythm playing and heavy leads.”\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"subtitle\"\u003eQuick Specs\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- A faithful reissue of the original classic circa 1978\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- Iconic sound and vibe that’s coveted by guitarists\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- Controls for Tone, Sustain and Volume, plus a Tone Bypass switch\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- True bypass switching for maximum signal integrity in bypass mode\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- Rugged, compact, die-cast package…pedalboard friendly\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- 9-Volt battery included, also accepts optional EHX 9.6VDC-200mA power supply\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- Current draw: 5mA @ 9VDC \u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- Dimensions in inches: 2.75 (w) x 4.5 (l) x 2.1 (h)\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cdiv class=\"“bull”\"\u003e- Dimensions in mm: 70 (w) x 115 (l) x 54 (h)\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003c\/div\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ELECTRO HARMONIX","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41347535863981,"sku":"electro_harmonix_op-amp_big_muff_pi","price":96.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0606\/3449\/7197\/products\/opampbm-1-768x768.jpg?v=1645056416","url":"https:\/\/www.detroitmodular.live\/products\/electro-harmonix-op-amp-big-muff-pi","provider":"Detroit Modular","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
