Electro-Harmonix rolls out Bass Big Muff Pi 2 for bassists

A revived fuzz circuit just got rebuilt for low-end players, packing a heavier punch and extra control straight into a bass-focused stompbox.

Bass Big Muff Pi 2 targets low-end players

• Electro-Harmonix spun this off after reviving the Dual Op-Amp Big Muff 2 with Josh Scott from JHS Pedals.
• Bass Big Muff Pi 2 reshapes that circuit specifically for bass guitar signals.
• Its voicing keeps the midrange snarl and long ring that the Muff line is known for.
• This version drops at 122 dollars and is already shipping.

New controls beef up flexibility

• A Blend knob lets players mix a clean tone back under the fuzz.
• Bass Boost piles on extra low thump, even with brighter Tone settings.
• Players can crank highs without sacrificing weight underneath.
• That low-end focus keeps the grit thick instead of thinning out.

Footswitch adds performance tricks

• The pedal carries a quiet true bypass switch.
• Clicking it locks the effect on in standard latching mode.
• Holding the switch triggers a short burst of fuzz.
• That momentary option makes quick accents easy during a set.
