Electro-Harmonix relaunches the Green Russian Big Muff Pi for a new generation
Big sounds, smaller package
New York pedalsmith Electro Harmonix has announced the relaunch of the Green Russian Big Muff Pi, but this time it’s taking up a smaller footprint on your pedalboard.
Promising a “huge tone that is all its own”, EHX maintains that the Green Russian is, undeniably, a Big Muff, all wrapped up in a Nano enclosure.
Controls for the GRBMP consist of the usual Volume, Tone and Sustain knobs: Volume sets the output level; Tone enables you to dial in everything from high treble sounds right down to deep rumbling basses; and Sustain, as expected, adjusts the amount of sustain and distortion.
The Green Russian Big Muff is available now at a street price of $80.60. For more information and upcoming demos, check out the EHX website.

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
