KMA Machines GUARDIAN of the WURM combines the aggressive high-gain distortion of the WURM with a fast and accurate built-in noise gate. The pedal builds on the classic HM-2 concept and delivers everything from tight modern metal and doom to the iconic Swedish death metal “chainsaw” sound. With three clipping modes – Silicon, Asymmetric and Off – you can choose between the classic compressed HM-2 response, a rawer sound with increased headroom, or a more open character that works particularly well with bass and baritone guitar.

For extensive tone shaping, the GUARDIAN features an active 4-band EQ, with the center frequency of each band adjustable directly on the pedal. The EQ STYLE switch lets you choose between HM-II, KMA and BOTH, while the Clean Blend allows you to mix your dry signal back into the distortion for additional definition and a tighter low end. The built-in Blackmer VCA-based noise gate features a straightforward Threshold control and can be precisely tailored to your setup using the external trigger and internal settings.

A convenient TRS FX loop is positioned between the distortion and noise gate, allowing you to place other effects between the two sections or use the gate with your amplifier’s effects loop. The distortion and gate can be switched independently or operated together in Synced Mode. The GUARDIAN of the WURM features relay-based soft switching with true bypass, runs on a standard 9V DC center-negative power supply, and draws less than 150 mA.

KMA Machines

KMA Machines is a German manufacturer of creative and distinctive effects pedals, based in Berlin. Founded by Enrico Preuß, the company has grown into a notable name in the European boutique pedal scene. KMA combines analogue circuitry with modern functionality and distinctive visual design. Rather than simply recreating classic guitar tones, the brand focuses on adding new possibilities and giving musicians more ways to shape their sound.

Broad range

The KMA Machines range covers everything from fuzz, distortion and overdrive to modulation, delay and advanced stereo effects. Pedals such as the WURM, Guardian of the Wurm, Cirrus and Endgame are great examples of what KMA is all about: extensive control, original circuits and features that go well beyond those of a traditional effects pedal. KMA also offers interesting solutions for guitarists working with stereo rigs, parallel effects chains and more complex pedalboards.

Clever options

One of the defining characteristics of KMA Machines is that its pedals remain practical despite their extensive features. Many models offer clever routing options, expression control, effects loops or comprehensive tone shaping without requiring you to dive through complicated menus. Their striking artwork and rugged enclosures also give KMA pedals an instantly recognisable look. KMA Machines is therefore an excellent choice for guitarists and bassists who enjoy experimenting and want to get more out of their pedalboard. From heavy fuzz and metal distortion to atmospheric delay and stereo processing, KMA creates effects pedals for musicians looking to develop a sound of their own.
