The legendary orange fuzz beast gets an update
ThorpyFX Field Marshal
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 tone stack 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.
Dimensions
12.5cm x 6.5cm 5.3cm

Each Field Marshal pedal offers the following features:
Four knobs to control Volume, Fuzz, Tone, Balance.
Two footswitches, on/off and tone stack bypass.
A three-way toggle switch for gated fuzz, flat mids and enhanced mids.
A beautiful laser cut black anodised aluminium enclosure wrapped in a metallic orange base.
Engineered to be robust but functional with recessed knobs, sloped front and top mounted jacks.
9-volt operation and standard DC input
Internally the pedal is immaculately built using premium 1% metalfilm resistors, Wima and Panasonic capacitors, and Neutrik jacks. These are the crème de la crème of the electronics world and when coupled with a robust gold plated PCB and dust sealed potentiometers the recipe is as good as it can possibly be.

The Lowdown From
Team Machine
The original Big Cheese was a wonderful fuzz and brilliantly versatile due to its interactive controls. Fast forward to the present day and this pedal is a worthy successor: smaller, definitely louder with the same flexible tone controls. Big props to team Thorpy!
