ummmm.... I don't think Buzz uses a Big Muff. As far as I know he uses a Pro Co Rat. :-s

Yeah, he uses a rat or a turbo rat. Never heard of him using a BigMuff. A Rat is a much better pedal than the big muff.

i agree. i've been given a couple danelectro pedals in the past and i would plug them in once and decide that i would rather rape them for parts than use them to play with. unfortunately my big muff is dead :( i miss it.........

NO way! i mean, the distortions suck, like, bad, but the chouruses and slapback delays are alright. and remember, its a 20 dollar pedal.

I tried circuit-bending a couple of those danelectro pedals.  one was green coloured and the other was chorus.  both endeavors were fruitless.  I hate danelectro guitars too.  here's something to keep this thread on topic.  Kevin Rutmanis used a big odd-shaped bass that was gold or green and had sparkles on it.  it sort of looked like a trident or something.  Was that a danelectro bass?

Does anyone know the bass I'm talking about?

I remember the bass very well.  I couldn't tell you what show/s he played it at though.  It was cool looking.

If I remember correctly, both of his were customs, and slightly different from actual Longhorns.

Let's not forget the awesome "shove-it" put into the fret inlays of the green one!

Reminds me of last year when I went to see the melvins, my buddy asked Jared what kind of pedals he used and he said "all of them"


the 3X ive seen him on stage (once on the ASA tour, once at stubbs, and when BB toured this summer) his pedals are always different.

the only album that sounds like he might be using a big muff is bullhead.
