Description
Fender The Bends V2 Compressor Pedal gives guitarists and bassists a straightforward way to add smooth, musical compression without sacrificing feel or dynamics. Designed for players who want everything from subtle leveling to rich sustain, the Bends V2 combines a flexible OTA-based compressor with an independent clean boost, making it equally at home as an always-on tone enhancer or a versatile performance tool. With modern and vintage compression voices, it easily adapts to a wide range of playing styles and rigs.
The intuitive control layout makes dialing in great tones quick and easy. Input sets the amount of compression, while the three-position Attack switch and adjustable Release control shape the pedal's response to your playing. An active Tone control restores or enhances high-end clarity, and the Blend control mixes your clean signal back in for greater note definition and natural dynamics. A rear-panel Vintage switch transforms the compressor from a clean, transparent response into a warmer, more saturated compression character, while the Comp Pre/Post switch lets you position the independent clean boost either before or after the compressor for dramatically different performance applications.
Built for demanding stage and studio use, the Bends V2 also features selectable true bypass or buffered bypass operation along with Fender's Multi-Switch functionality for both latching and momentary activation. We especially like how the independent boost and flexible routing options make this much more than a traditional compressor, giving players a highly adaptable dynamics tool that integrates easily into virtually any pedalboard.
