TZm5 Torrid Fuzz

The Guyatone TZm5 Torrid Fuzz is a compact and versatile fuzz pedal designed by Toshi Torii of HAO pedals. It offers a variety of wild and wooly tones that can emulate classic fuzz pedals or create all-new fuzz effects. The pedal features the following controls:

1. LEVEL: Adjusts the output level when the effect is engaged.
2. TONE: Adjusts the tone of the effect, with a counter-clockwise turn cutting high frequency.
3. DEPTH: Adjusts the strength of distortion, with a clockwise turn increasing distortion.
4. PHASE: Adjusts the phase of the output signal, with a positive phase providing a thicker, chunkier sound and a negative phase offering a thinner, more treble-focused old school fuzz flavor.
5. ATTENUATOR: Selects the proper input sensitivity against output level from connected instruments. The standard setting is at the MAX position, with a counterclockwise turn reducing input signal if sound is distorted due to high input signal.

The pedal also features an input attenuator (mini trimmer) and a 'Phase' +/- switch, which significantly impacts the overall tone of the fuzz. The TZm5 is designed to be optimized for single coils or humbuckers, offering a wide range of fuzz effects in a pint-sized package.

The TZm5 is part of Guyatone's Mighty Micro series, featuring a compact design with three full-size pots for main controls, a mini toggle switch, and a mini trimmer control. It uses true bypass switching and has top-mounted input, output, and DC power jacks, as well as a top-mounted battery compartment for quick access.

Overall, the Guyatone TZm5 Torrid Fuzz is a small pedal with a big sound, offering versatility and a wide range of fuzz effects in a compact form factor.
