Outstanding performance
I have a love hate with fuzz pedals. I never liked them personally when I played them but on the classic recordings of Fripp , Santana , Hendrix and Pink Floyd I loved them. I was always more of an amp style distortion player but I saw EHX reissued these and tried the triangle. I threw a chorus and slight delay and I found a fuzz tone I am ecstatic about. Enough sustain for… read more days , great tone , warm and crisp and not thin and weak ( like my previous experience with fuzz ) I can get sludge when I need it but this pedal is perfect for layering lines and creating some interesting textures and soundscapes. I highly recommend it . Not good for tapping and sweeping style but for atmospheric guitar works like a dream.
Sounds Like Me
I play mostly clean but wanted a fuzz for occasional soloing. Being a devotee of Boss pedals (see pic) and trying to retain continuity, I checked out their Fuzz offering. It was a bit thin & grainy, imho. So #@!$ continuity and just get the best one out there. There are currently 10 EHX Big Muffs available at Sweetwater and I looked at all of them. The Triangle was the clear winner… read more because of its smoothness and versatility. It can get steely like the Ram's Head and it can be dark & grungy like the Russian with just a small tweak of the tone knob. It can do Gilmour, Hendrix, Santana & Clapton, but most importantly it can do Rob (that's me). Finding my own sound is incredibly easy with this little thing. And that sweet, smooth, violin-like sustain has to be heard to be appreciated. Sounds awesome through all my amps. The original is still the best.
Fat & Sustain
Great pedal, it gives me that thick, wicked, fuzz tone I was searching for in the style of Hendrix, Page, Clapton, and Gary Moore. Also, the fact that I can hold a note and it sustains itself for a long time is fantastic.
Triangle Big Muff
Nice distinctive fuzz yet clean and not muddy, unless you want it to be. It's a keeper and I can see it's gonna be fun at the jams.
Fat tone
I usually don't like fuzz pedals, but I love this one! I use it for lead playing, makes the notes sound nice and fat. Sounds great with Gibson sg AND fender Strat thru my Marshall. A must have in my opinion
