Pig Hoof
The Electronic Orange Pig Hoof is a boutique fuzz pedal that pays homage to one of the most iconic and sought-after distortion tones in rock history. Based on the legendary Electro-Harmonix Big Muff Pi "Ram's Head" circuit from the 1970s, the Pig Hoof expertly recreates the thick, creamy sustain and searing lead tones that defined the sound of David Gilmour and Pink Floyd's seminal albums like Animals and The Wall. Handcrafted in the Czech Republic by the boutique effects wizards at Electronic Orange, the Pig Hoof captures the essence of the original Ram's Head with remarkable authenticity. Its two main versions - the Mk1 "Red Label" and the Mk2 "Yellow Label" - each offer their own unique spin on the classic fuzz formula. The Mk1 delivers the full-bodied, saturated gain of the original, while the Mk2 has been tweaked for a smoother, more versatile response that pairs beautifully with boosters and overdrives. Guitarists seeking Gilmour's holy grail of tones will find the Pig Hoof an indispensable tool, with its Tone and Sustain controls allowing you to dial in everything from searing lead lines to thick, fuzzy rhythm textures. But the Pig Hoof's appeal extends far beyond Pink Floyd worship, with its rich, expressive voice finding favor with modern fuzz aficionados like The Black Keys. If you crave the holy grail of fuzz tones, the Pig Hoof is a boutique gem that more than lives up to the hype.
