Combining the powerful evolution of KMA’s highly regarded WURM Distortion with an intuitive, versatile, and ultra-fast Noise Gate, the GUARDIAN of the WURM is the ultimate pedal for metal enthusiasts. Whether you're playing chugging hard rock, droning doom metal, or grinding Swedish death metal, this pedal delivers. Its highly adjustable control set allows you to achieve impeccable clarity in your riffs, making it the definitive distortion pedal for metal, prog-rock, shoegaze, indie, and more.
While the WURM excels at capturing the iconic Swedish death-metal chainsaw sound, it is capable of so much more across various genres. Notable musicians such as David Gilmour, Prince, Johnny Marr, Belinda Butcher, Lee Ranaldo, Daron Malakian, and others have all utilized this style of distortion to make their musical mark.
