Next do a Big Muff vs. a Boss Tuner pedal.
lmfao 🤣🤣
Actually, the buffer on different boss tuners does change the tone. 😂
@@CC-fi3pp i smashed that thumbs down faster than curry through a pensioner.
Boss power supply vs Klon Centaur
Have to keep in mind that this is probably a new Big Muff. I have an original “op amp” Big Muff.
for me the RAT wins
Rat sound better for Crust punk!
maybe learn to hear how detuned a guitar can get before actually recording it?
There is no versus. At well under $100 for each...you need both. Just picked up a used Big Muff Pi yesterday at my local guitar shop, great pedal. Now for the RAT!
Boost the Muff with the Rat, and get that instant dronedoom sound. 🤘
The RAT you wouldn't of regretted.
Great vid! One of my pet hates is blues noodling to showcase dirt pedals 🙈 This is much better 👍
Oooh man, same. I get so tired of people taking these gnarly sounding pedals and bust out the dad rock to demo them. This is definitely a relief from that.
If I could only have one, the Rat is more versatile and plays well with more amps. The Big Muff is appropriate in fewer occasions, and can be fussy about which amps it wants to play with. But when the situation is right, a Big Muff is so much fun.
Clean amp ---> BIG MUFF
Dirty amp ---> RAT
no. the rat needs a clean high end amp, like alex turned did
@@dennykeildrums9243 Depends on what sound you're looking for and a high end amp is not necessary. Also who the fuck is Alex Turned?
@@marvintimke3978 Turner
@@marvintimke3978 who the fuck are artic monkeys
I think the two pedals have different personalities but they can work very well together, that's what I do
Well done m8. Gonna go with the Muff
Howd it go?
Which one is better? Really good strumming and turning knobs at the same time! That's so hard!
It depends on what sound you are looking for 😉
I think it also depends if you play gigs or not. The big muff is awesome at home or for recording but sometimes sound lost in the mix in band situation especially if there are two guitarists. The rats has a lot more mid, so it will be more present. My advice unlike you are the only guitarist in your band, big muff = home, recording
Proco rat = live
@@geoffreyvacher755 I can see what you mean but it's nothing some EQ-ing and knob twiddling won't fix. I used to play guitar in a band where the other guitar player used a Big Muff. His tone was very fat and hella present, but it did lack the definition to cut through during solos. He solved the problem by using a clean boost. But the Rat actually stacks really well with the Muff, so if you did have both pedals there would be no sense in leaving one in the studio and the other in the gig bag. Put the Rat in front of the Muff and prepare for fuzz heaven lol
Big muff pi forever 🖤
i love both, i put the rat after the fuzz and it sings
I do that same thing!
2 very different pedal the RAT uses an op-amp where as the muff uses transistors. RAT is more versatile just like the Swollen Pickle. The muff takes up so much real estate & has a small board inside no reason to have such a huge case.
@@MostlyLost I had the Nano Big Muff. It didn't sound bad. I seen a bunch of different ones but never heard all of them in person.
The big box is brilliant for doing multiple mods.
So i think you use a looper.
So the sound of the big muff didn't clean up if you turn the sustain down.
So it sounds diferent if you direcly plug in the guitar.
I like my big muff pi more then the RAT Pedal.
But good Video
if i had the exact right amp with the exact settings on the amp and pedal, big muff, but the rats just easier, the muff is so picky about what you use, the rat is so much better if you want that type of distortion
I've always been fond of the big muff, but I own the rat (fringe logo).
Great demo. I would love to see a single coil version of this demo. I think the Rat sounds totally different (and a bit better) through single coils and I’d be curious to see how it compares to a big muff with single coils.
Tbh whatever you put through a big muff sounds the same, especially on high gain. Still love it tho
Great demo, But my big muff didn’t play so... I sold it al lot of years ago because l never liked it
I bought the Rat last year. Very versatile pedal - great overdrive sound for blues.
finally a proper pedal review I like.cranking th gain all th way from th rip like it should be...then all th other settings afterward...I'm only interested in what it can do full blown...I know you can back off th gain for lighter shades...so I'm not interested in backing off.at all.
Look at just about any video where J. Mascis explains the dynamics in his pedal setup to better understand. Gain stacking is an art unto itself.
Rat is very versatile
Rat for rhythm, Muff for lead, simply!!!💪🏼🤝🏼🔥🤘🏽🖤
Great comparsion!
What happend if You use RAT pedal as distortion and BOOST WIth the BIG MUFF??

Thanks!
Hi, I will make a video to see what happens, thanks for the suggestion, subscribe if you want to stay updated 👍🏻😉😉
@@kev_k_life2799 Yeah, just do it! We will see what happend!!
Nobody did this!
great idea
I have both of these, not a fan of either boosting the other. It’s too thick, it’s like a wall of fuzz, in an unpleasant way. However, I will boost a big muff or a rat with a clean boost or tubescreamer-type pedal into it though. That’s a great sound.
@@IronDave1985 ah great.
👍
Please tune your guitar 😢
Which one would you recommend for an early Radiohead/Nirvana tone?
Boss ds-2/ds-1 :)
But between this two, rat would be better choise
marshall shredmaster for radiohead
Marshall Shredmaster for Jonny Greenwood's parts, Rat for Thom Yorke's

Thanks man. Good video.
Can't understand how it's possible to prefer the Big Muff ? I actually tried both in a music-shop and the result was the same as here. Please, open your ears ! 😀😀😀😀
Taste is subjective.
@@jasonprice9823 u'r right. But .... the pro co is better 😂
would you please do boss bd-2 vs proco rat?
Good idea 😉

Mids scooped and uncompressed amps (Fender/Vox and similar) - NO fuzz, Powerbooster and Muff. ONLY Tube Screamer and Rat (or similar sounding clones).
Mids boosted and compressed amps (Marshall/Hiwatt and similar) - NO Tube Screamer and Rat (or similar sounding clones). ONLY transparent, mids scooped or flat EQ overdrives, distortions and fuzz.
This makes a lot of sense. Guts tho because I love my big muff but always thought it sounded too flubby and disproportionate sounding plugged into my laney lionheart. Sounds way better on my mates JTM 30
Both are so awesome. Personally I enjoy the big muff more just bc it’s what they used in the old days so turning that on to play your guitar just sounds so vintage but it’s all personal preference, I only listen to mostly late 80’s early 90’s music. I’m sure the rat would be great for recording if you want a new and clean modern sound on the recordings. Both are needed tho lolll
They used RATs too.
The Rat has been around almost as long as the Big Muff has
What on earth are you talking about? They both were on sale in the 70s... I own a RAT from the 80s, and I'd take it over any muff. The RAT is a retro dirt sound (both have newer versions buy they aren't all that far from the originals).
Am I the only one who thinks a fuzz pedal should only be used with single note leads?
These riffs are just awful taste
Hi. What pedal is better for the misfits songs ? Thanks.
Rat
Rat all day!
