This pedal is a steal for something made this sturdy with a true bypass. Reviews of other pedal brands (BOSS in particular) always mention being "built like a tanks" and similar language, but this thing is built like the black box of an airplane. I'd expect it to survive a nuclear war.
The sound? It sounds like a Big Muff. I'm sure some people can tell the difference, but I'm not one of them. Even though I love the sound, people not familiar with the Big Muff or even with fuzz pedals in general should try this (or the full size muff) at a guitar store before blindly ordering one over the Internet. It is not an overdrive, not a distortion pedal. It is a fuzz, and a very particular fuzz at that. There are plenty of videos on youtube that demonstrate what a Big Muff sounds like. You either love that sound, or hate it.
The controls work really well. With the sustain and tone all the way up, and the volume at dead 0, the pedal is absolutely silent. There is no "leakage" of noise like with some pedals. You can get the same tone at any level from 1 to 10.

This pedal is awesome. It sounds just like its namesake Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi (USA) but is much smaller.
Physically, the pedal is slightly larger than most single-effect pedals, but easily fits on a pedalboard. Slightly larger than a ProCo Rat. Very sturdy construction, doesn't feel like a cheapie at all.
Sonically, it has very creamy smooth distortion (read: not suited for crunchy metal) and sounds just like some recordings you may have heard it on, including tracks by Smashing Pumpkins and My Bloody Valentine. If you love shoegazer-style wall-of-sound distortion, this is the pedal for you.
I've wanted a Big Muff for years, and I'm glad I finally bought this mini version.

At age 12 my friend let me borrow his father's big muff pedal, it was my first experience with any kind of pedal, I feel in love instantly. Fast forward 12 years later I finally got around to getting my own.
Too me it sounds just like the older big muffs, it's simple to use and the size of the pedal fits much nicer on my pedal board than the old school enclosures. It's such a classic sound.
If this were ever to break or be stolen I wouldn't hesitate to replace it.

Consider the distortion sound of Cream, the Doors, and ZZ top. That buzzy, psychedelic type sound is what this pedal does. Unfortunately, that's about all it does. However, if you want to have the perfect "break on through" guitar intro sound, this is absolutely the pedal for you. Quality-wise it's awesome, and if I needed that sound I would definitely own one again. I got rid of mine to purchase some other gear that served a wider variety of functions, and honestly I haven't missed it, because I'm not in a Doors cover band or anything.

This pedal is great. The Sustain knob (controls dist./sust.) has a wide range of choices. You want a great 70's dist. or a bit more heavy? Just adjust the knob! AWESOME and very smooth sustain, and the tone is killer from this pedal. I only had to tweak the knobs a bit before I had "that" feeling iin the back of my neck. The one that says, "That's it right there!"
The size of this pedal is nice too, it's a bit wider than say a BOSS, but it doesn't take up too much room. The box is pretty sturdy, it will take some abuse!
Alone or with a few effects, this is a great pedal
