[copachino]

hi, i friend want a bass muff the green one, but bass pedals are like really strange, but maybe the brians muff can br used to convert it to a bassmuff??

I think the big muff is already quite bass heavy, if you are using 1uf caps on input and output. Should be fine for bass.

Big Muffs are extremely popular for bass guitar, especially the Green Russian variant, but I think they are really helped out by a Blend control to mix in the original signal.  Check out the JMK Panner or Paralyzer boards.

Their own product description says what it's based on:

"The Bass Big Muff Pi creates tones similar to the classic fuzz sounds of the battle-tank green Sovtek Big Muff Pi and the legendary Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi from the '70s - but optimized for beefy bottom-end that punches through anything."

So I would start with the Green Russian. If I weren't at work I'd try to work out some other mods for you. But yeah, I'd start with a Green Russian specs, maybe increase the input/output caps, and as Matthew pointed out, adding a blend will be really nice on bass.

I know here in the US you can buy that Bass Big Muff for like $80, they aren't that expensive if he wanted the real deal.

The last one I made for a bass player was a Russian BMP with a Schoon clean blend. Worked perfectly.

No since the Russian is all ready bass heavy. You could use 1uF coupling caps if you wanted to but remember the blend will add the clean low end also.
