Wren and cuff The Good One Fuzz

WREN AND CUFF The Good One started with a restoration. In late 2020, W&C received an email from a customer named G. Smith inquiring about our restoration service. Mr. Smith had a very rare 1972 “triangle knob” B-Muff that wasn’t working. He wished to bring it back to its former glory. After repairing some torn traces, replacing the pots, and replacing a cracked cap or two, W&C team was able to get it fired up and taken aback by the tones that greeted they ears.
Triangle Knob is pedal-slang for the first generation of Muffs produced from roughly 1969 through 1972/73. This particular pedal was considered to be the first version of the Big Muff® but the 2nd edition of this pedal. The first edition was made on perf board, wired point-to-point, and made in truly limited quantities. All V1 pedals are easily distinguished by their smaller enclosure size, front facing on/off slide switch, and super simple one color black graphics over clear-coated steel enclosures. Oddly, none of the knobs from this era look remotely triangle-like, but for some reason among Muff enthusiasts, the name stuck.
