Warm Audio Warm Bender Fuzz Effects Pedal Silver
Description
The Warm Audio Warm Bender fuzz pedal summons the raw, unhinged tones of the most iconic British fuzz pedals ever made. With three distinct circuits to choose from, you can recreate those vintage fuzz sounds or bring them into the modern era.
Recreates Iconic Vintage British Fuzz Tones With 3 Circuits
The Warm Bender features dedicated circuits to accurately recreate two of the most iconic Tone Bender fuzz tones that took the UK by storm, plus a third modern circuit. Choose the aggressive NOS 76 setting modeled after the original 2-transistor pedal for bright, edgy fuzz. Opt for the NOS 75 setting that emulates the 3-transistor Professional MKII fuzz for smooth, warm vintage tone. Or go for the modern silicon 3-transistor circuit for a more refined fuzz sustain.
Germanium Transistors Tested for Consistent Vintage Fuzz
The first two circuits use NOS germanium transistors, carefully hand-tested to precisely reproduce those vintage fuzz sounds. The NOS 76 setting uses an OC76 and SFT337 transistor pairing, while the NOS 75 setting uses three OC75 transistors, just like the originals. Consistent performance gives you rich, responsive fuzz full of character.
Classic Controls Give Intuitive Tone Shaping
Shape your fuzz to taste with the classic Level and Attack controls found on vintage Bender pedals. Level adjusts the overall output volume, while Attack determines the amount of distortion sustain. Further tweak your tone with the Version rotary to select a circuit and the SAG switch to simulate dying batteries.
Silicon Setting Modernizes Legendary Fuzz Sound
The Warm Bender's silicon 3-transistor circuit replaces the germanium components with modern silicon ones. Get smoother sustain and natural compression for a more refined fuzz tone that works well when mixing. The silicon setting bridges traditional fuzz with more distortion-like tones.
Starved-Circuit Tones With SAG Control
Engage the SAG switch to recreate the unique tones of original fuzz pedals with weak batteries. The resulting playing feel becomes ultra sensitive to pick attack and guitar volume knob rolls. Experience tweed amp-like breakup and microphonic feedback.
Hand-Tested in Texas for Reliability
Like all Warm Audio products, the Warm Bender undergoes meticulous inspection and testing by technicians in Austin, Texas. You can trust its quality and consistently sublime fuzz tones, gig after gig.
