Electro Harmonix Nano Big Muff Series: All 7 Big Muffs Compared 
Poison Noises Glutnik
Oct 20, 2022
The Glutnik by Poison Noises is a unique take on the Russian Big Muff Fuzz.
my favorite part about the Glutnik is that it doesn’t really feel like a Big Muff when you explore some of it’s extra toggles and knobs. Just choosing different options for diodes, bypassing the tone stack and applying the “wrong” bias gives this a whole different vibe.
It reminds me more of a gnarly, fuzzy preamp. Which I absolutely enjoy.
If you’re tired of playing the same old Big Muff clones, give this one a whirl.
Recording Notes
Guitar
- Fidelity Guitars Stellarosa Lite II with Lollar Firebird pickups (bridge pickup)
- Glutnik
- Strymon Iridium (chime)
Overdubs
- Stellarosa in different pickup positions
- Glutnik with various settings
- OBNE Screen Violence (just the modulated reverb) for the solo part in mono
Bass
- JMJ Fender Mustang*, La Bella Flats*, played with pick, tone 100%, mute foam on the bridge
- Keeley Compressor Mini to even it out

- SoundToys Radiator plugin for even more ooomph
Drums
- Logic Drummer Zak (garage rock) on the Motown Revisited+ kit

The whole mix was “mastered” with exciter, limiter and mild compression in the DAW.
