{"product_id":"earthquaker-devices-hizumitas-fuzz","title":"Earthquaker Devices Hizumitas Fuzz","description":"\u003cp\u003eHizumitas is a faithful recreation of Wata's go-to distortion pedal, the Elk BM Sustainar. The Elk is a Japanese variant of the very well-known \"Triangle\" BMP. The designers at EQD tried several vintage BMP's during development, found that each pedal was wildly different and realized that to truly capture the magic they needed the original. Wata graciously sent her beloved pedal halfway around the world, and EQD discovered that it had something special the others didn't have: heavy saturation with a gritty edge and massive bottom while maintaining a clear and dynamic tone with enough mids and top end to cut through any sludge. The studious wizards at EQD have built all of those characteristics into the Hizumitas.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThis fuzz\/distortion brings loads of heavy distortion and smooth sustain and an underlying grit that sounds like the speakers are on the verge of ripping apart while delivering amazing and unexpected clarity from such an aggressive sounding pedal.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSustain\u003c\/strong\u003e control has a wide range of saturation, meaning even small changes will significantly affect the overall tone. Hizumitas responds excellently to all types of pickups and playing dynamics. Power chords will sound huge and heavy, while open chords will be dynamic with fantastic note separation, and single note leads will come across smooth and powerful, especially with the neck pickup.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTone\u003c\/strong\u003e control can drastically change the character of the distortion in conjunction with the tone. Bass frequencies are boosted clockwise, and treble frequencies are boosted counter clockwise. The \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTone\u003c\/strong\u003e control can go from an aggressive mid-range grind to piercing highs as you turn it counterclockwise.  As you turn it clockwise, the mids become less present, the highs are tamed, and a humongous, thundering low end comes to the forefront. The \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVolume\u003c\/strong\u003e control offers massive output gain with unity at around 9-10 o'clock and beyond that, prepare to hear and feel the power of Hizumitas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFaithful sonic recreation of Wata from Boris' crushing go-to fuzz: the Elk BM Sustainar\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOffers loads of heavy distortion and smooth sustain with an underlying grit\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eExcellent response to different pickup types and playing dynamics\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eUnique \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTone\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eSustain\u003c\/strong\u003e controls greatly impact the distortion’s character\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eOffers plenty of output \u003cstrong data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eVolume\u003c\/strong\u003e - unity is around 9-10 o’clock; everything above that is set to destroy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAll-analog signal path\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTrue bypass\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Earthquaker Devices","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41996843450583,"sku":"210000057407","price":179.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0468\/6148\/4199\/products\/unnamed.jpg?v=1636130951","url":"https:\/\/rudysmusic.mom\/products\/earthquaker-devices-hizumitas-fuzz","provider":"Rudy's Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
