ThorpyFX Field Marshal LT

ThorpyFX · pedal

The ThorpyFX Field Marshal LT is a compact variant of the Field Marshal, itself a MkII of the Lovetone Big Cheese fuzz developed with original Lovetone designer Dan Coggins. It keeps the core Big Cheese voice -- big, thick and harmonically dense, with a heavy low end and substantial midrange weight -- while running louder and considerably quieter in noise terms than the 1990s original. The fuzz ranges from a woolly, saturated wall of sustain to a tighter, more cutting voice as the tone control opens, and it responds well to guitar volume. Built to ThorpyFX's usual standard with premium components in a rugged anodised aluminium enclosure.
