Electro-Harmonix announces Deluxe Bass Big Muff Pi 2

May 1, 2026 · 4 sources

The maker lists the pedal as released in 20261, and Gearnews reported it on May 21, describing it as the latest iteration of the Big Muff 2 circuit2. Gearnews later noted that the guitar Deluxe Big Muff Pi 2 followed the Deluxe Bass version announced in May3.

The pedal is an analog, mono bass fuzz that Electro-Harmonix describes as a "Deluxe Dual Op-Amp Bass Fuzz"1. It carries Volume, Tone and Sustain knobs, plus a Blend knob that mixes the dry and distorted signals; at noon the mix is 50/501. A Gate knob sets the input amplitude needed to open the noise gate, and turning it fully down disables the gate1. The footswitchable Crossover splits the signal, applying a high-pass filter to the signal feeding the fuzz circuit and a low-pass filter to the dry signal. The HPF knob ranges from 115Hz to 1kHz and the LPF knob from 60Hz to 10kHz1.

The input switch engages 10dB of attenuation for high output pickups1. Outputs include a standard output, an XLR DI output of the effected signal and a buffered Direct Out of the clean signal1. EHX lists buffered bypass and a footswitch with latching and momentary action: holding the footswitch for more than half a second returns the pedal to its previous state on release1. Gearnews described the momentary action as allowing a quick blast of fuzz2.

EHX gives a US price of $188.201. 204.
