is a highly regarded boutique fuzz and distortion guitar pedal handmade by Stomp Under Foot, a company founded by fuzz expert Matt Pasquerella. It is specifically engineered as a modified clone of the legendary, vintage “Violet” Ram’s Head Big Muff Pi circuit. Core Architecture & Sound
Vintage Roots: The pedal replicates the balanced, smooth silicon fuzz, rich harmonics, and massive sustain of the highly coveted 1970s “Violet” script era Ram’s Head.
The “Menace” Modification: Traditional Big Muff circuits are famous for having a heavily “scooped” midrange, which can cause a guitar to get lost in a live band mix. The standout feature of this pedal is an added Mids control knob.
Tonal Range: The Mids control allows you to sweep from a traditional deep mid-scoop all the way to a prominent mid-hump. This allows your tone to easily cut through dense bass and drums during live performances or studio tracking.
Versatility: The modified circuit preserves the punchy chord response and smooth, singing lead tones of the original architecture while expanding the distortion versatility. Build Quality & Specs Stomp Under Foot: VIOLET MENACE
