Fender Pugilist Distortion Effects Pedal

Display Model - Mint Condition 

Pugilist Distortion
The Pugilist Distortion features a dual circuit design that can provide a huge range of distortion tones, from light breakup through to fully-encompassing saturation.

The two circuits can be run independently and blended together, or cascaded (one running into the other) which can provide a thick saturation and a high degree of interactivity.

Dual circuits
Each of the Pugilist's distortion circuits features tone and gain controls to let you shape your sound how you desire. The circuits can be operated in blend mode, which runs them in parallel and means you can blend both sounds together for an incredible amount of diversity. This mode is fantastic for achieving a nuanced distortion tone for riffing and complex chordal work.

In the Pugilist's Series Mode, the two distortion circuits are cascaded, and this has the effect of letting circuit A become a 'boost' into circuit 'B'. This mode lets you achieve a full-on saturation with thick sustain and dynamic articulation that is ideal for crushing rhythm sounds and liquid smooth lead guitar playing. A bass boost also lets you achieve a thick low-end response.

Professional features
The Pugilist has a rugged and lightweight aluminium chassis with a brushed metal finish. This gives it both road-ready durability and a classy-aesthetic that can take pride-of-place on your pedalboard. The pedal is built by Fender, who have a multitude of experience in amplifier design, and you can be sure that this pedal will last a lifetime of gigging, rehearsing and recording.

Magnetic battery door & jewel light
The jewel LED light not only looks great, it also adds a handy on-stage visual indicator of the pedal's operation. The pedal has a clever battery compartment door: a magnetic latch which means you can easily change the battery with no fiddly screws to worry about.

This is a thoroughly professional pedal - both in tone and appearance - and would make a welcome addition to your pedalboard.
