Electro Harmonix Triangle Big Muff is a re-issue of the original Version 1 Big Muff and it’s dripping with vintage Electro-Harmonix DNA and tone. Dubbed the Triangle Big Muff because of the layout of its Volume, Sustain and Tone controls, this is the one that started it all. The new Triangle Big Muff is a faithful re-creation of the original circa 1969 circuit now housed in a pedalboard friendly, die-cast chassis.

Electro-Harmonix founder, Mike Matthews, says: “The Big Muff Pi is the pedal we are best known for so I wanted to commemorate EHX’s 50th Anniversary (1968-2018) by re-releasing V1, the very first Big Muff. Original pedals are now selling for hundreds of dollars and this reissue absolutely nails that creamy, violin-like sustain and musical tone at a price a working musician can afford.”

The Triangle Big Muff features the following nods to convenience: an LED to indicate effect status, true bypass switching and the option of being powered by a 9-volt AC adapter.

Electro Harmonix

Electro-Harmonix (EHX) is an American company known for manufacturing electronic audio equipment, particularly effects pedals for musicians. Founded in 1968 by Mike Matthews, the company is headquartered in New York City. EHX gained fame in the 1970s for creating innovative and iconic guitar pedals that shaped the sound of modern music, most notably the Big Muff Pi distortion pedal, used by numerous legendary guitarists such as Jimi Hendrix, David Gilmour, and Jack White.

Financial struggles in early 1980s

The company initially thrived by producing various effects pedals, including fuzz, distortion, and delay units. However, EHX faced financial struggles in the early 1980s, leading to a temporary halt in production. In the 1990s, the company relaunched and resumed production, continuing to innovate and expand its product lineup to include effects for bass, synthesizers, and other instruments. Electro-Harmonix pedals are known for their high-quality, unique sound, and durability, making them a favorite among musicians in genres ranging from rock and punk to experimental and electronic music. Today, the brand is recognized worldwide for its contributions to audio effects and maintains a strong presence in the music industry.
