• Electro-Harmonix has released the “Deluxe Bass Big Muff Pi 2,” a fuzz pedal delivering intense, deep bass tones!

  

  2026/05/23

  Electro-Harmonix has released the “Deluxe Bass Big Muff Pi 2,” a new model packed with professional-grade features and based on the circuit design of the "Big Muff 2," which was once considered a legendary and hard-to-find model featuring dual op-amps.
  While maintaining the Big Muff’s signature saturated distortion and infinite sustain, it delivers the high versatility modern bassists demand. The CROSSOVER section, which can be turned on and off via a footswitch, allows for independent adjustment of the high-pass filter (HPF) on the distorted side and the low-pass filter (LPF) on the clean side, allowing tight, focused bass tones and edgy fuzz tones to coexist.
  It also features a BLEND control to mix the clean and distorted signals, as well as a GATE to suppress noise. In addition to a -10dB input pad for active basses, it includes a full complement of connectors—such as DI OUTPUT and DIRECT OUT—making it ready for both studio and stage use.
  The footswitch now includes a new momentary function that activates the effect only while the switch is held down. Be sure to check out this new bass fuzz pedal, which offers extensive tone-shaping capabilities!

• Now Carrying the Bass Pedal Brand “SONIFIX”!

  

  2026/05/22

  Sound House is proud to announce that we are now carrying the innovative bass pedal brand SONIFIX.
  
  SONIFIX is a brand deeply committed to a player-first philosophy.
  Through extensive prototyping and testing alongside professional bassists, SONIFIX has developed low-end tones that truly perform well within an ensemble setting. Rather than simply boosting bass frequencies, every aspect—from tonal balance and clarity to distortion texture and playing responsiveness—has been meticulously engineered.
  The result is a premium sound that enhances the player’s creativity while delivering a powerful low-end presence.
  
  The lineup features two standout models: the “GRAVION,” a modern overdrive designed to achieve the ideal bass distortion sound, and the “AURION,” a natural overdrive that adds richness and warmth while preserving the core character of the original tone. From circuit design and component selection to the specially crafted gift box that heightens the excitement from the moment of unboxing, every detail reflects a unified design philosophy.
  
  Don’t miss this opportunity to experience SONIFIX for yourself.
