The Moose Electronics Electric Elk is a beautifully textured Muff Fuzz - inspired by the Ram's Head and Black Bubble Font variants

This is an interesting hybrid Muff take - somewhat mild - but beautifully textured. The Ram’s Head is quite aggressive, while the Bubble Font Black Russian is the mildest / softest of the Big Muffs - with typically the least sustain.

So this Electric Elk is very unique in carrying aspects of both of those - where the general dynamics are closer to the Black Russian - and the Texture and Harmonics - more for the Ram’s Head - but at a milder level of gain.

It really is a beautifully textured Muff - very distinct in its character. It’s my first pedal from Dublin’s Moose Electronics. The artwork had some tiny imperfections - which I’ve touched out on the main photos. Otherwise it feels like a fairly high quality unit - making use of 4 x BC549C High Gain Transistors - which makes the somewhat mid-gain output even more special!

I acquired my Electric Elk from Joe’s Pedals in the UK - where it goes for £179. I think I may have snagged the last one from that initial batch - as they are currently out of stock - but surely more will be in stock soon enough!
