Handmade in the UK Custom Shop, the Ashdown Stuart Zender Funk Face is a dedicated bass twin dynamic filter pedal that’s fully qualified to produce those distinctive choppy “Virtual Insanity” type bass grooves.

Regarded as one of Britain’s greatest all-time bass players, Stuart Zender is best known for being one of the founding members and the original bass player of the funk band, Jamiroquai.

Funk Up Your Jam

The Funk Face’s simple 3-knob and 2-switch layout makes things simple for the bass player when those funky moments strike.

The Funk Face’s ‘Sensitivity’ rotary control allows the player to shape the exact effects response, whilst the ‘Output’ knob allows you to decide just how much of it you want. Depending on your playing style, attack, and dynamics – by tweaking the Output and Sensitivity controls in unison – you can range from subtle filtering to a fully responsive “Funk Bass in your Face” Auto Wah.

Ashdown

In the current JustPedals catalogue, Ashdown is represented by Distortion Pedals, Preamp & DI Pedals and Wah & Filter Pedals. Current listings include Studio One Compressor, Type 23 Dynamic and Valve Pre-DI. That makes the range relevant to players looking for drive, gain and clipping, plus modelling, direct rigs and multi-effects. Check each model for its exact circuit or processing platform, controls, power requirements and connections, particularly where the catalogue includes both pedals and supporting gear.

Wah & Filter Pedals

Wah effects sweep a resonant band-pass or related filter through the frequency spectrum, creating the vowel-like movement associated with the treadle. Envelope filters move automatically in response to picking level, while fixed and sequenced filters use other control sources. Sweep range, resonance, direction, sensitivity and input loading determine whether the response is vocal, percussive, smooth or sharply synthetic.

Bass

Voiced or equipped to retain low-frequency fundamentals and the higher headroom of a bass signal. Clean blends, crossovers and bass-specific filter ranges can preserve weight and articulation while the effected portion adds harmonics, movement or ambience.
