Black-Violet Caprid OG

There are a few rare effects pedals that have marked the history of music. These are essential components of mythical sounds. This is the case of the Big Muff Ram's Head from EHX. A pedal that revolutionized the genre and which has influenced millions of guitarists for decades as adopted by Jimmy Hendrix, David Gilmour and many others.

The Big Muff has always been a standout pedal. Exceptional in its size and its unique sound signature, halfway between overdrive, distortion and fuzz. It represents the sound of the 70's and is a pedal that every self-respecting guitarist should have in their arsenal.

So you're going to tell us, what does the Wren and Cuff Black-Violet Caprid OG have that's better than the hundreds of other clones available on the market? Well let's take a tour of the owner.
First of all, the case, a perfect and extremely qualitative replica of the original model. It's beautiful, it's impressive, it's indestructible and... it must be said, it's amazing! Really. Inside, we find an ultra meticulous replica of the original model introduced in 1973. Everything is there: the PCB type 3003, the values ​​of the components, the "hand wired" assembly and everything that contributes to the sound of the time.

So how does it sound? The Black-Violet Caprid OG is an exact replica of the Ram's Head Violet Area v2.0. A version delivering a massive drive, a little darker than the previous version but with beautiful clarity and almost infinite sustain. Neither too "fat", nor not enough in any way. We could talk for hours about how this drive sounds, but the best thing to do is listen to David Gilmour play his Ram's Head on the solos of Comfortably Numb. It's all said and done, it's the quintessence of the mid-70's Big Muff sound.

With the Black-Violet Caprid OG , Wren and Cuff confirms its reputation as a specialist in all things Big Muff and 60-70's fuzz of all kinds. An extremely limited production piece that we rarely have in stock, so jump on it!
