Tym Big Mud Red Mud
The Tym Guitars Big Mud Red Mud is a handmade fuzz pedal, a clone of a vintage "Russian" fuzz, known for its big, round bottom end and harmonic-rich sound. Favored by bass players and stoner rock musicians, it features carefully selected NOS 2N5088 transistors. It has a slightly gated sustain and offers more mids and low end than other fuzz pedals. The Red Mud is designed to deliver a full-sounding fuzz with the mudiest and biggest bottom end, making it a standout in the fuzz family.
What Tym Guitars say about the Tym Big Mud Red Mud
These are handmade, hand wired clones of an old school sustain/fuzz made around '90/91 that has been nicknamed the "Russian" or "tank" version by many. This version had slightly less gain but great "harmonics" and BIG round bottom end that has made them a favorite for bass players and stoner rock guys alike. These are considered by some to be the highest point of this company's fuzz design. I use carefully selected high gain NOS 2N5088 transistors for these after fine tuning them off several originals.
These are full sounding fuzz with more mids and the highest output and more bottom end than some others in the series. They have a slightly gated sustain on full. These are the mudiest and biggest bottom end of all the series. Check my blog for more details.
All of my pedals are hand made by me here in Brisbane, Australia using locally sourced components where possible and custom made enclosures. All the Tym effects on this site are constantly being hand made and uploaded for sale as they become available. I do not do presales/preorders or holds on ANY of my hand made stuff. Keep an eye on my NEWS feed for what's coming up and when it will be available. Check my blog for more info. All power supplies are std BOSS style adaptors unless noted otherwise. None of my pedals use batteries.
