Minotaur Sonic Terrors Mud Giant Fuzz

The Mud Giant Fuzz is a fuzz pedal from Minotaur Sonic Terrors, a maker whose catalog leans heavily on fuzz and dirt designs. It is an analog circuit in a standard pedal format, built to take a guitar into saturated, compressed fuzz territory, the effect type that stacks square-edged clipping on top of the signal for a thick, sustaining voice¹.

What it does

As a fuzz, the Mud Giant sits at the heaviest end of the dirt family, beyond the gentler clipping of overdrive and distortion pedals. RockBoard's PedalPedia lists it as an analog fuzz, meaning the clipping and tone shaping happen in the analog signal path rather than through digital processing¹.

Power and practicalities

The pedal runs on 9V DC with a center-negative plug, the standard arrangement for most pedalboard power supplies, and draws 10mA¹. That draw is low enough to sit comfortably alongside other pedals on a shared supply.
