The famed Civil War Muff, recreated!
Originally released in 2012, the original Box of War is back!
Crafted to replicate the iconic Civil War-era Muffs, the Box of War offers a versatile fuzz tone capable of venturing into overdrive.
The Box of War stands out with its simple, user-friendly interface featuring just three controls (Volume, Distortion, Tone).
With the Box of War, you'll experience a searing, yet clear fuzz that doesn't sacrifice your guitar's tonal character.
Very closely related to the Tall Font Muffs, Civil War-era Muffs have a darker and fuzzier tone.
Like the Tall Fonts, they’ve got less output and are less fuzzy than most Muffs but are cherished for their woody sustain and presence.
These beasts became a secret weapon for many (namely David Gilmour and Thurston Moore), but usually required two or three back-up pedals due to the poor quality components. The Box of War solves that problem: sound, looks, and reliability!
Wren and Cuff Box of War OG features:
• Emulates the distinctive 'Civil War' era Muffs fuzz tone.
• Capable of producing overdrive-like sounds.
• Simple interface with three controls: volume, distortion and tone.
• Retains tonal clarity even at high distortion levels.
• True hard-wire bypass.
• Super heavy duty folded steel enclosure.
• Power: 9V DC.
• Current Draw: Less than 100mA.
