One of Chappers Favourites

One of Rob Chapmans favourite drive pedals in a huge blindfold challenge from Andertons TV! Check out the video below to see how well this brilliant overdrive pedal did.

The Fender Pugilist is a fire-breathing distortion and drive pedal. It's an original design with dual gain engines that can be combined to give you tons of sustain and distortion when needed.

Versatile

The blend allows you to dial both gain engines in together and come up with a unique sound with a separate gain and tone control for each. This helps you go from rhythm distortion tones to fat, saturated lead tones with ease.

The bass boost is also useful for making the most of your humbucking or single coil pickups. If you need to dial some bass in for your single coils or pull the bass out if you want more clarity from your humbuckers.

Here's what Fender say about the Pugilist Distortion Pedal:

Fiery sounding and flexible, the Pugilist Distortion is ready to add some heavyweight gain to your rig. This original design features dual gain engines—with independent tone controls for each—letting you select multiple variations of distortion, ensuring this pedal will play well with any rig. Series/Blend switch lets you stack channels for thick, cascading distortion, while the Bass Boost switch fattens up your tone. The Blend control mixes the two channels to get the best of both worlds, crafting a sound just for you.

Designed by our in-house team of experts, the Pugilist Distortion is an all-original circuit. We consulted with a plethora of players while designing this pedal, and the resulting stompbox is packed with stage-ready features. The chassis is crafted from lightweight, durable anodized aluminô€Œum, and the Amp Jewel LED gives your pedalboard the classic Fender look.

The LED-backlit knobs show your control settings on a dark stage at a glance. We even made swapping batteries quicker and easier with our exclusive “patent applied for”, magnetically latched 9V battery door.

Ranging from brutal to subtle, the Pugilist Distortion can satisfy all your distortion needs.
