The BigToneMusicBrewery Royal Beaver features all panel
mounted hardware, including open frame Neutrik jacks,
true mechanical bypass, and is soldered, wired, and
assembled completely by hand in the USA. The pedal is
topped off with a pink or purple LED (we can't decide which
color we like better).

Transistor Configuring Controls: You have complete control
over the V+ (positive voltage), gain, and bias of the transistors in
each of the clipping stages. These knobs allow you to sculpt and
mold the tone and texture of the fuzz into your dream muff. You
can dial in the tone of any version of the Big Muff Pi - Triangle
Era, Ram's Head, Vintage NYC, Green Russian. Or you can
create your own new muff tone. Anything from creamy sustaining
distortion to gated ripping-velcro fuzz.
In addition to being able to control the sound of each clipping
stage, you can also bypass or turn each stage on individually.
And we've added a 3rd clipping stage to the circuit. This means
you can have a one, two, three, or even zero clipping stage muff
circuit.
The original muff circuit consisted of two clipping stages with a
boost in front, and the tone control and another boost tacked on
at the end. So with two of the clipping stages bypassed and only
one clipping stage engaged, you get a grindy overdrive-like fuzz
that's capable of low gain tones that you just can get by turning
down the sustain knob or your guitar's volume knob. And with all
of the clipping stages bypassed, that leaves you with two
cascaded boost circuits with tone and sustain controls for a gritty
boost to slam the front end of your amp and send it into singing
overdrive. With all three clipping stages engaged, you'll enter a
new sonic territory of high gain fuzz and never-ending sustain that
no other incarnation of the Big Muff circuit has ever been capable
of.
And of course, you can turn on just two of the clipping stages
for standard muff tones.

4-Way EQ Knob: All of the original Big
Muff Pi circuits have a very scooped out mid
range. While we've all come to know and
love this tone, it's still nice to have a more
versatile tone control. The 4-Way EQ Knob
gives you 4 different styles of tone control to
choose from.
Muff Pi circuits have a very scooped out mid
range. While we've all come to know and
love this tone, it's still nice to have a more
versatile tone control. The 4-Way EQ Knob
gives you 4 different styles of tone control to
choose from.
- Scoop - This is the classic Big Muff Pi
tone control with a heavily scooped
out mid range. - Flat - This setting replaces all the mid
range frequencies that are lost with
the typical Big Muff Pi tone control
and just boosts/cuts highs and lows
so that when you have the tone knob
at 12 o'clock, you get a flat frequency
response. This setting is great for not
getting lost in the mix when playing
live. - Mids - This setting adds a boost to the
mid range frequencies. It's ideal for
dialing in lower gain overdrive tones. - None - This setting removes the tone
stack completely from the circuit.
When in the none position, the tone
knob does nothing at all. This was a
feature found on some versions of
vintage muffs. By removing the
passive tone stack, you get pure,
unfiltered, aggressive, muff tone. You
also get a pretty big volume boost too!
We've taken the experience that we've gained at BYOC over
several years of studying vintage big muffs inside and out,
perfecting the art of recreating vintage muff tones, and helping
thousands of people build and modify their own big muff clones,
and used it to design what we consider to be the holy grail of big
muff pi inspired guitar effects. After countless experiments, we've
distilled the essence of what makes each version of the big muff
different. We found which components were crucial to the tone of
each version, and how to manipulate them so that the tone of any
version can be acheived. Not only can it dial in vintage muff
tones, it can dial in new tones that you've never heard before.
Everything from a gritty low gain overdrive/boost to an over the
top, crushing distortion that goes into endless feedback and
sustain, even at whisper-quiet sound levels.
