I have been speculating the possibility of the modify the little big muff and make a bridge between the input jack and output jack for a get a clear channel, and use the volume as a blend, the idea is to do the same as the bass big muff .... I play guitar and bass and use the little big muff for both .... my question is, how can I do it? there are some precautions that I should take? ... can I use the volume as a blend ?.... what are the bedst materials should i choose to use?.... have you some recomendation???...etc etc etc

Save yourself some trouble and buy/build a blend pedal.

why??? is to complicated??

how about the old new BM USA…???

not that its complicated, it just dont make much sense. just make a blend pedal in its own box, then you can move it around and use it in other places if you wanted to and you dont need to ruin your BM!

I like the option to have a clear channel when I play the bass especially when I go to studio or live when I use a bass amp I do not know (in genereal is very cheap and has a sound you use all night trying to improve or very advanced bass amp and you have no idea how it will react with your pedal) like the bass big muff, but I prefer the distortion of the little big muff is better or I like it more than the bass big muff distortion, the big bass muff has a tendency to sound like mud, but the little big muff is stolen too much bass…

I play a lot on different projects, and only bring with me my bass, a tuner and a fuzz .... I need not carry much weight and do not wish more pedals, so I’d like to keep it that way .....

Figured you guys might be interested in adding my flange mods to the list

Nice addition.  Thanks for the link!

I have just added the tone bypass mod on my BMP (V9 Reissue) and I was very surprised when I got volume loss instead of the famous 6+dB when bypassing the tone knob.. Please help!  :cry:

I’v used an SPDT with four pins, much like this one:Linky

The tutorial I followed was: Big Muff Tone Bypass

^ that video is not a correct method for tone bypass

my question is - is this diagram accurate for using a DPDT to perform the emitter mod, I hadn’t really seen one drawn up and threw it together rather quickly, from my understanding of DPDT switches I believe this to be correct, one position will pass the cut trace to the resistor, the other will jump over the resistor, but just wanted some verification.

edit: in addition are R12 and R16 the correct resistors on a V9 big muff pi
