A Contemporary Tribute to the HM-2 Legend
As a direct evolution of the acclaimed WURM, the Guardian carries the DNA of the legendary "chainsaw" distortion popularized by the Boss HM-2 MIJ, while making it far more flexible and controllable. It retains the biting and gritty character but adds modern tools to switch from a doom wall to a sharp, clear riff in an instant.For Which Musicians and Styles?
Designed for metal guitarists and bassists, Swedish death, sludge, and doom, it also appeals to prog, shoegaze, and indie players seeking massive yet controlled textures. Both in the studio and live, the Noise Gate locks down palm-mutes and high-gain recordings, while the Clean Blend and extended EQ make it formidable on baritone guitar, bass, or synths.Technical specifications

Questions frequently asked
Is the Guardian suitable for Swedish death metal and doom?
Its circuitry follows the HM-2 aesthetic, with an abrasive tone and pronounced mids suited for Swedish death metal, sludge, and doom. The EQ-STYLE selector offers HM-II, KMA, and BOTH positions to adjust the midrange presence.
How does the built-in noise gate work?
The Noise Gate locks palm-mutes and high-gain settings. Internal DIP switches allow selection of the trigger source, input filter, and gate response. The EXT TRIG input accepts an external trigger.
Can this pedal be used with a bass or synthesizer?
The Clean Blend and 4-band EQ preserve attack on bass, baritone guitar, or synth. The center frequencies of bass, low-mid, high-mid, and treble are adjustable.
What clipping modes are available?
Three styles are available: silicon for more compression and harmonics, asymmetric for more headroom and grit, or Off for a cleaner output.
Does the Kma Audio Machines Guardian Of The Wurm have an effects loop?
A TRS loop is placed between the distortion and the gate. It allows insertion of other pedals or placing the gate in an amplifier's loop.
