Electro-Harmonix SOVTEK DELUXE BIG MUFF – effects pedal

The Sovtek Deluxe Big Muff brings back the raw, oversized distortion of the legendary Russian Big Muff pedals, but with added modern features. At its core, the pedal delivers the thick, woolly sustain and gritty distortion known from the vintage green Sovtek models, with massive low-end and an aggressive mid-character.

The Deluxe version goes much further, offering a fully parametric mid-EQ that allows you to precisely boost or cut the mid frequencies. The Blend control lets you mix clean and distortion, preserving articulation for complex chords or bass-heavy parts. Additionally, the pedal features a noise gate for tight high-gain sounds and a Wicker mode that opens up the high frequencies for more presence. Thanks to its stereo outputs, you can create wide bi-amp setups where you distribute different distortion layers or blends across two amplifiers.

For both classic Sovtek sludge and modern high-gain walls, the Sovtek Deluxe Big Muff delivers a massive sound with complete control.
