Big Knob
What do you get when a One Knob Fuzz collides with a Big Muff Pi Tone Stack? Ok, minds out of the gutter…The Big
Knob of course! I’ve always felt the One Knob Fuzz could use a tone control for versatility as well as experimentation.
The Big Muff Pi won the deal, it marries seamlessly with the One Knob Fuzzes expressive output. 16mm pot spacing and
silicon transistors make this project a good contender for a silicon fuzz with “bang for buck”.
