Three-transistor pedal boasts silicon and germanium fuzz stages.

Keeley Electronics has introduced the Fuzz Bender, a three-transistor pedal that utilizes a combination of high-gain silicon and silky smooth germanium to produce wild fuzz tones. 

The Fuzz Bender boasts a two-band active EQ (bass and treble) that utilizes two gyrators and offers over 20dB of boost/cut at 100Hz and 10KHz.

There’s also Level and Fuzz knobs, as well as a Bias Control that will help conjure everything from “fat square waves to angular fuzz to glitchy-Velcro attacks.”
