Description
My Bloody Valentine guitarist Kevin Shields redefined the sound of alternative rock in the '80s and '90s with his gritty, wall-of-fuzz guitar tone. Now, after over four years of collaboration between Fender and Shields, Fender brings fans the ultimate tool for creating massive, saturated fuzz: the Fender Shields Blender Pedal. Based on the original 1970s Fender Blender, this stompbox is perfect for musicians seeking a highly dynamic fuzz pedal that dishes out intense, splattering fuzz tones.
The Fender Shields Blender stays true to the vintage 1970s Fender Blender sound, meticulously recreated by tracing the circuit from Shields' own fuzz box. But that's just the beginning. This pedal takes fuzz to the next level with several innovative features designed for seamless performance, all at your feet via four easily accessible footswitches.
We'll do a quick rundown of the controls that make the Shield Blender your go-to tool for crafting killer fuzz tones:
-Dual Fuzz Channels: Get the best of both worlds with two foot-switchable fuzz channels, each with dedicated level controls.
-Blend Control: Layer gritty fuzz tones into your clean signal.
-Sag Footswitch: Tap to conjure exciting sputtering and ducking effects controlled by your playing dynamics.
-Octave Control: Dial in a beastly suboctave fuzz to thicken your sound and shake the foundations.
Other standout features include a custom 1970s-inspired heavy-duty chassis with top-mounted jacks and true-bypass switching, making it a reliable pedal for gigging, practicing, recording, and more.
Kevin Shields changed the game for fuzz during the heyday of alt-rock, and now you can, too, with the all-new Fender Shields Blender pedal. Check it out today if you're ready to upgrade your setup with an incredibly versatile, vintage-inspired fuzz unit with tons of exciting tones on tap!
