Ram's head

The EHX name is rather synonymous with fuzz. It's only natural that one of the leading pioneers in all things fuzzy is keeping up with the times. One of the good things which they are doing right is keeping the fuzz pedal in check. OK so some of it translated to be an iteration of what's already out there but Gibson & Fender are doing it with aplomb & it's a good business plan. There are some things that remain sentimental with the players out there & getting them to re-embrace that is quite easy; tell them it's still relevant & that they should want one. It's the case with the Big Muff Ram's Head iteration. So it's another fuzz pedal but it's a recreation of the manufacturer's coveted achievement. It's so good, David Gilmour swears by it & there's a good chance that today's players don't know who Gilmour is as opposed to BTS. 

Anyway folks, at my end, I'm here to tell you that this might be the shredder's preferred fuzz pedal. The pedal simply sounds good when playing so many notes at breakneck speed is your thing. It doesn't muck your definition out while retaining that signature rounded, fuzzy, top end. Need convincing? Here's something from the EHX people themselves:
