Warm Audio WARM BENDER Fuzz Pedal

The Warm Audio Warm Bender features dedicated selectable circuits for delivering two of the most iconic Tone Bender fuzz tones plus a bonus modern tone in one stomp box. Warm Bender’s NOS 76 setting brings a cutting, present tone to the front of any band, while the NOS 75 delivers that Mark II Professional-style Bender fuzz tone lauded by all the Riff-Lords of the 60s & 70s. Warm Bender is made with 100% through-hole construction using NOS Germanium transistors. Warm Bender houses two distinct Germanium fuzz circuits plus a third modern silicon circuit for a more smooth, distortion-like tone. With the added SAG control starving the voltage and the smaller pedal footprint, Warm Bender is the ultimate Bender fuzz experience.

Pedal Settings & Controls

The Warm Bender pedal has the typical ATTACK (Gain/Fuzz) and LEVEL (Loudness) controls of a Tone Bender-style pedal. The SAG switch starves the voltage from 9V to 6V - perfect for that touch-sensitive compressed tone. The three settings on Warm Bender cover these basic tones:

NOS 76 Setting
Aggressive fuzz with raw grit and sharp attack. Clear high pass filter, cuts through any mix easily.
NOS 75 Setting
Thunderous bass with smooth, wooly, and fat fuzz tones. Can get to a very Cream/Woman tone sound and depending on pickup choice, Zeppelin-ish riff tones shine here.
SILICON Setting
The most like a distortion sound. This circuit provides smoother sustain, compression, and more control. Hear tighter bass and treble on the fringes of your tone.

PRO TIP: As a true-bypass, through-hole, NOS Germanium fuzz pedal, it’s recommended that Warm Bender is first in the chain if you are going to use other pedals for interesting textures and tones. This is especially crucial with buffered-bypass pedals. Even a basic tuner in front of vintage-style fuzz can make things wonky!
