Just when you think you’ve seen it all before, and it seems that there are more Fuzz Pedals in the World than guitarists, Keeley come along and do something utterly magnificent to re-ignite our love for Fuzz Pedals all over again. Known for high-quality yet affordable effects, Keeley never fail to disappoint and the Fuzz Bender is no exception!

Not only does the Keeley Fuzz Bender look sleek with its pure-white casing and over-sized dials, but it sounds delectable too! The Fuzz Bender encapsulates a whole host of tonal opportunities that you wouldn’t find on traditional fuzz pedals. You can create scintillating new and epic unnatural fuzz sounds with the Keeley Fuzz Bender.

The Keeley Fuzz Bender is a three transistor modern fuzz pedal that uses a combination of high-gain silicon and smooth-toned germanium to give a new dimension to your much-loved traditional Fuzz sounds.

What sets the Fuzz Bender apart is its active EQ. What is active EQ? Using two gyrators as an active EQ gives you the ability to create massive fuzz tones not possible with regular fuzz circuits. With over 20dB of boost at both 100Hz and at 10K Hz, this stomp box is loaded with brand new sounds, even for the biggest of fuzz sceptics.

Wait, there’s more! This pedal can be made even more unique with the all new Gate Control design. A complex blend that gives you the ability to create purposeful glitchy and velcro ripping sounds! 

What are you waiting for, get the Fuzz outta here!

Fuzz Pedals

Fuzz drives the signal into extreme clipping, often flattening the waveform and generating a thick spectrum of harmonics. Transistor type, bias, input loading and tone filtering create markedly different responses, from loose and velvety to gated, spluttering or octave-rich. Some circuits interact strongly with pickup impedance and guitar volume, while others include buffers or blends for a more consistent response.
