ThorpyFX The Field Marshal Fuzz FX Pedal
The Field Marshal is just one of those such pedals. A tonally flexible fuzz that sits easily on your pedalboard in it's super robust, but sublimely finished and unique metal enclosure. The flexibility comes via a tonestack bypass foot switch which allows the user to have two different fuzz sounds from the same pedal, and a balance control that can be set to the same volume as your core sound or used as a solo boosted fuzz!

What Do ThorpyFX Say?
The FIELD MARSHAL is a MKII version of the Big Cheese fuzz. Smaller, louder and more tonally flexible than the original it sits perfectly on a modern pedalboard. The tonal flexibility is provided through a tonestack bypass foot switch that allows you to have two different fuzz sounds from the same pedal. The balance control is linked to the tonestack bypass and can be set to the same volume as your core sound or as a boosted fuzz for solos.
Internally the premium sound is enhanced through the use of premium components all wrapped in a beautiful custom engineered enclosure.
Controls
VOLUME: Use this control to increase the volume output of the pedal.
FUZZ: This control is used to increase the level of FUZZ available, everything from lighter fuzz through to searing fuzz is available here.
TONE: This control allows you control over the treble and bass response of the pedal. Counterclockwise yields
smoother sounds whilst clockwise yields brighter sounds. This control is very interactive with the mode switch and CHEESE footswitch.
BALANCE: This control adjusts the volume attributed to the cheese footswitch when engaged. Everything from an attenuated sound through to a massive volume boost for solos is available.
MODE SWITCH: This is a mode switch and allows you to choose between gated fuzz, mid scoop and mid boost fuzz settings. When the cheese switch is engaged this switch is overridden and has no impact on the sound.
LEFT FOOTSWITCH: This turns the FIELD MARSHAL on/off.
RIGHT FOOTSWITCH: This “CHEESE” control bypasses the tonestack entirely for a different tonal response, turning the gating off and giving you a level boost depending on where you set the balance control. When this is
switched in the tone control and mode switch DO NOTHING.
