Tym Fuzz Munchkin
The Tym Guitars Fuzz Munchkin is a limited edition fuzz pedal, a meticulous clone of J Mascis's live fuzz pedal. Hand-built by Tym Guitars and endorsed by J Mascis, this pedal delivers the iconic Dinosaur Jr live sound. It sits sonically between a Ram's Head and a version 3 fuzz, but with enhanced clarity. This fuzz pedal gives you both rhythm and lead tones, thanks to its "bypass" switch. Housed in a custom-designed stainless steel enclosure, it offers a unique sonic experience that replicates the tone of a legendary fuzz effect.
What Tym Guitars say about the Tym Fuzz Munchkin
This is a limited edition clone of J Mascis from Dinosaur Jr’s live fuzz pedal. Reverse engineered from J’s original pedal and built here at Tym guitars by hand it is endorsed and used by J. These are electronically exact clones of this famous pedal and uses the exact component values and transistors as is in J’s original. Sounding somewhere between a Ramhead and a version 3 with more “clarity” this will get you closer than any other pedal on the market to the live Dinosaur Jr sound. The Tym Fuzz Munchkin also has the added advantage of a a “bypass” switch which will give you J’s rhythm and lead sound, in one pedal. Comes in a new Tym stainless steel enclosure with custom artwork designed by J Mascis and Tym guitars. Limited to 300 units worldwide and available ONLY through Tym guitars. The first 100 made will be serial numbered with a song title off a Dinosaur Jr album in chronological order. 1 per customer. For more info check the blog.
“Tym tried to harness my sound in a little a box and I think he’s got it. Step on the Fuzz Munchkin for a good time. Dial down the volume for cleaned up rhythm then hit the bypass switch and the flood gates are open, the volume control dissapears, all sanity dissapears, its just searing lead tone cranked all the way up. So now if your sound sucks you must lay blame somewhere else, your amp, your pickups, your fingers, but don’t blame the Fuzz Munchkin.” J Mascis.
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 social media 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.
