Summer NAMM 2019: Dunlop has unveiled a slew of new pedals for Summer NAMM, headlined by four Authentic Hendrix mini pedals that pack the legendary guitarist’s Fuzz Face, Octavio, Uni-Vibe and Band Of Gypsys Fuzz tones into smaller enclosures that feature psychedelic art by U.K.-based designed crew ILOVEDUST.
Additionally, the company has debuted a Gary Clark Jr. wah, as well as a new iteration of its popular Dimebag from Hell wah.
The six pedals will be available beginning in September.
Authentic Hendrix ’69 Psych Series Fuzz Face Distortion (JHW1)
From Dunlop: This pedal combines the two different flavors of Fuzz Face Distortion tones—aggressive silicon-based crunch and smooth germanium-based saturation—that Jimi Hendrix used throughout his career, all in a mini MXR housing modern appointments such as a status LED, true-bypass switching and a 9-volt power jack.
