They don't say which model it is. Price is great if it's Civil War or green. These were my main fuzz for years. The hype is semi-justified as they sound pretty cool and the clones don't seem to sound the same as the good ones. On the other hand, they were pieces of shit. The bigger the show the more mine wanted to crap out.

At that price it has to be a Black Russian. I'd say if you were lucky it would be a big box version

maybe contact them and find out.

Not overpriced here in Australia. We get arsefucked hard for gear. No lube either. But yeah I've seen them on evilbay for about $120. I saw a minty for sale the other month in BST for $100, but it was CONUS only. I wanted it.

Not necessarily. I found a first edition civil war muff with the green sides on cl a couple of years ago for $110. It happens. Worth checking into.

I like buying the broken russian muffs that aren't broken. You'd be suprised how many people don't see that the jack placement is reversed.
I've realised that vague big muff ads are always worth checking into. Just last week I scored a marveltone distortion sustainer for $75. Unfortunately for the seller he had no idea what the pedal was, and could of sold it to some david gilmour fanboy for well over a grand.
Now this schlup is stacking at rat into the damn thing and couldn't be happier. Probably sell my dope priest soon.

Muff is a green V7. I guess V7 doesn't mean anything. Looks like it's in good cosmetic shape, too. Green bubble font.

I've got 3 kids with me, no backup and I'm swamped at work. Otherwise, I'd get it right now. It's literally the worst week in months for me to deal with music sh*t. If I get a chance I'll try to get it tomorrow, and pass it along. If not, I'm gonna have to let it pass me by. On a personal level, I've been there & done that with the Russian Muffs cuz I'm from the 90s.

I remember buying mine on ebay for 50 bucks and that included shipping. I always think how lucky I was.

Word to that... life comes first, I just got off a 2-week stretch where I think I was only home to sleep a few hours a night, if that (stupid buildouts)...

A bubble font goes for $200-$275 on eBay, although a lot of people try to get more. Civil War is ridiculous. The best sounding Muff I've ever played: black, late 90s. But for most of the 90s I played a bubble font. Actually, it was probably a tall font because I got it in 93

That is an awesome price for a green. We don't get good deals like that here in Australia.
