You can manipulate the sound of the muff nicely by hammer ons and pull offs, bending the strings, toggling the pickup selector,  and using a Wah pedal.  The feedback is the key.  Working the feedback by using those tone controls is the magic.]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[Is that a solid state or tube Marshall?  open or closed back?  I'm forever on this Quest for sound and tone. While on this quest I experiment with trying anything and everything I can. if possible just for fun anyway, if its a closed back, set the amp on a clean overdrive(it will be loud)(preamp volume about 7 to 9 and the power amp volume about 4 to 7, you want  turn the amp to wards the wall (this will block the dB's a little) or an attenuator would work, then you wouldn't have to turn it around. <br><br>Now plug the Muff in and just adjust till find a sound or tone you like. You just never know maybe worth a try. Turning the amp around with a closed back should allow you to run the amp harder without the volume blowing your ear drums. This is an old 4x12 box trick we used in small honky tonks to keep from getting bottles thrown and the air pressure from blowning pictures off the walls....lol<br><br>Have Fun Experiment.<br><br>Joe]]></content:encoded>

                        <content:encoded><![CDATA[The Big Muff was one of the first distortion boxes. We didn't even call it distortion back then. We called it a Fuzz Box because that's what it sounds like. It is a very dry sounding distortion. <br><br>They also had the Little Muff. It was a small box with a 1/4" jack that plugged into your input jack on your amp. It had a gain knob and on/off switch. Same sound. At the time it was the best there was but cannot compete with today's distortion.<br><br>People who buy the Big Muff are trying to recapture those early sounds. So, that's the sound you're gonna get.<br><br>Try rolling off the highs on your amp and boosting the lows. You might get a better tone.]]></content:encoded>

Playing it through a 60 watt marshell 2x10 so its not like i dont have the punch to deliver a solid sound, with the muff on though everything goes a bit fizzy and there is probably only one half decent sound from the thing... a one trick pony?<br><br>anyone else feel similar or different?<br><br>rob]]></content:encoded>
