Keeley Electronics Fuzz Bender



Pummel your amp with over 20dB of boost/cut at 100Hz and 10K Hz. The Keeley Fuzz Bender is a 5 knob – 3 transistor modern fuzz using a combination of high-gain silicon and silky smooth germanium.  What makes fuzz better?  Active EQ.  Using two gyrators as an active EQ gives you the ability to create massive fuzz tones not possible with typical square-wave boxes.  The Fuzz Bender is built around vintage Japanese germanium to create its monumental fuzz tones.  With the all new Bias Control, you control the attack and decay of your notes.  Anything from Fat Square Waves to Angular Fuzz to glitchy-Velcro attacks are possible with the Bias Control.  The Fuzz Bender’s five knobs confirm size matters when creating a new and epic world of fuzz.

                                                                        The Keeley Fuzz Bender Overdri allows you to quickly switch between either mode.  Having a great buffer will make your rig sound strong and clear even when the pedal is off.  Buffered switching prevents the pops and clicks of true-bypass switching.  If you want to turn on true-bypass, simply press and hold the foot switch for two seconds.  Holding the switch for two seconds toggle between modes.  True Bypass is great if a buffer might affect the tone of a vintage pedal.  Enjoy truly silent switching and a better sounding rig with Keeley’s buffered switching mode.

          WARRANTY

             

            Keeley Electronics stands behind every pedal they have ever made or modded. Every new pedal includes a two-year parts and labor warranty, and even beyond that, we’re happy to help get your effects back in working order should anything go wrong. These are stompboxes after all. They get stomped on, beer spilled on them and all kinds of other crazy things. There may be a cost associated with repairs beyond the warranty – or if serious damage was done – but they always keep that cost as low as they can.
