And with the tone bypass no less!! Is there a release date yet? 

wesker123

Not yet. But EHX did advertise this video on their Instagram so hopefully release date announcement soon.

I don't need this. I really don't.

But I really want one.

Is this the one that @ICBM takes his username from?

I love fuzzes and I have a few, but I never use them IRL.  That said, I want this.

Doesn't sound anything special to me.
It's a fuzz and it's made by EHX.

Fuzz - tick. yay!

I enjoyed watching that.  

I couldn't help but think 'Wow. He really dials in the the Siamese Dream sound with a Strat, Marshall & a Big Muff'.  

Yeah well, unsurprising as it was Billy Corgan and it was the things he used to make the album!   He makes some great points though, a lot of fortunate accidents are responsible for great sounds and aspects that can't really be recreated. 

Looks like it will have a street price of £60?

If it's £60 or thereabouts, I'm getting one. Official.

I had been contemplating the new Russian one, but this looks more like the one I should get.

Ro_S

where does the £60 figure come from?   how come it's £15 less than the russian reissue?   £60 seems too low for ehx pricing.  The Nano Big Muff retails for £70-£75 ish.

andyp

I was wondering that too. I was expecting it to be slightly more than the Russian, but not as much as £100, say. My guess is £85.

When are they out?

wesker123

Andertons have it on their site for £79.99 available within 21 days. So looks like they will be available in UK early January.

God that sounds great, maybe better than the green russian reissue.

My thoughts exactly.

One of the two is getting bought before too long, I guess I'll have to try them together and see which I prefer.
