Unleash your inner guitar sorcery with the EarthQuaker Devices Hizumitas Fuzz Pedal - the perfect weapon to shape your legendary sound.
Legendary Tone, Legendary Inspiration
Step into the realm of guitar greatness with the EarthQuaker Devices Hizumitas Fuzz Pedal, lovingly crafted in collaboration with the iconic Wata from the legendary band; Boris. This pedal is a faithful recreation of Wata's go-to distortion, the Elk BM Sustainar, which has been an essential part of her mind-melting leads and crushing riffs for years.
Unleash Powerful Distortion with Smooth Sustain
Prepare to be blown away by the Hizumitas' heavy distortion and smooth sustain, enhanced with an edgy grit that will excite your speakers. Surprisingly, this aggressive sound doesn't compromise on clarity, delivering a tone that will leave you in awe.
Tone Control Magic
The Hizumitas surprises with its atypical Tone control, allowing you to fine-tune your distortion's character. Adjust it clockwise for boosted bass frequencies or counter-clockwise for enhanced treble frequencies. The treble side can transform from piercing highs to an aggressive mid-range grind while turning the Tone clockwise reduces the mids and tames the highs, letting a thundering low-end take centre stage.
Responsive to Your Playing Style
Whether unleashing power chords, playing open chords with fantastic note separation, or delivering smooth, powerful single-note leads, the Hizumitas responds beautifully to different pickup types and playing dynamics. It's your gateway to exploring a world of sonic possibilities.
Built for the Brave
With plenty of output gain on tap, the Hizumitas is ready to unleash your creativity. Handle with care, as unity is at 9-10 o'clock, and everything above that is set to destroy.
The Secret to the Magic: Elk Sustainar
The Elk Sustainar, a Japanese variant of the well-known "Triangle" BMP, is at the heart of the Hizumitas' distinctive sound. After studying vintage models and versions of the Elk, we knew that we needed Wata's original pedal to capture the true magic. She graciously sent it halfway across the world, revealing its unique heavy saturation, gritty edge, massive bottom, and clear, dynamic Tone. With the Hizumitas, we've faithfully recreated all these characteristics to inspire your musical journey.
