zZounds Live: EarthQuaker Devices Hizumitas: A Once Unnatainable Fuzz Now Belongs to the People!

The EarthQuaker Devices Hizumitas is a fuzz pedal designed for Wata, guitar sorceress of the legendary experimental band Boris. Wata collaborated with EarthQuaker Devices’ own Jamie Stillman to reproduce the incredible, unattainable tones from her Elk BM Sustainer fuzz pedal.

The simple yet effective design offers three knobs to control your desired fuzz tone. The tone control can drastically change the character of the entire pedal. Bass frequencies are boosted in the clockwise position, while treble is boosted counter-clockwise. The sustain control packs a punch with great control no matter what type of pickups you’re using, from rhythm to soaring, fuzz-soaked leads. And lastly, the volume control offers massive output gain with unity around 9-10 o’clock on the dial.

Great as a gift, the EarthQuaker Devices Hizumitas is built with the fuzz-lover in mind. Maybe the fuzz-lover in your life is you; in that case order yours today and get it ASAP with our fast, free shipping!

The video above recaps our live demo with Cory Juba of EQD. Listen to get a feel for what Hizumitas can do!
