     Today, Fender’s new line of Effects Pedals ($99.99 - $199.99) – designed by in-house pedals experts in Southern California – is available at dealers and on Fender.com. This marks Fender’s official entrance into the category with all-original circuits designed by in-house experts – the first of many in a long-term commitment to the category and sonic innovation. This line started as a passion project in the garage of one of Fender’s own innovators – Stan Cotey, who has spent 25 years in the professional audio industry, working on projects with Eric Clapton, The Edge and Joe Bonamassa –all known as legendary aficionados of guitar tone–making their sonic ideas a reality.

     
     
    With the addition of Effects Pedals, users can now play the guitar head-to-toe with Fender gear that is of the utmost quality and originality. The new offering includes six new pedals with original circuits, including the Marine Layer Reverb, Mirror Image Delay, Pugilist Distortion, Santa Ana Overdrive, The Bends Compressor and Level Set Buffer. Main features include: LED Fender amp jewels, lightweight, durable anodized aluminum enclosures engineered for heavy-duty use, LED-backlit knobs; and an exclusive, patent-applied-for, magnetically-latched 9V battery door.  
     
     
    • ($99.99) features dual gain engines—with independent tone controls for each—letting players select multiple variations of distortion. The Series/Blend switch allows stacking channels for thick, cascading distortion; the Bass Boost switch fattens the tone; and the Blend control mixes the two channels.

     

    • ($99.99) allows players to easily swap guitars without negatively affecting tone. This original design features Level, Hi-Freq and Load controls to adjust the signal, along with a Main Mute footswitch for silent tuning. The tuner output allows the tuner to stay on without interrupting the signal path.

     

    • ($129.99) tames wild volume spikes without altering tone. Drive and Recovery controls let players dial in the perfect amount of compression and extend sustain, while the Blend control mixes the dry signal to maintain natural pick attack. The Amp Jewel LED changes color from white to pink while playing, to show when the signal is being affected by the compressor and for how long.

     

    • ($149.99) features multiple reverb types, including classics like Hall and Room, along with modern ones, like Shimmer. Reverb tails continue when the effect is muted, ensuring a smooth and natural decay.

     

    • ($149.99) is an atmospheric delay effect, helping players create depth with a simple slapback or an epic soundscape with modulated repeats. The pedal offers Digital, Analog, and Tape modes—each with two voicing variations—and an option to add a dotted-eighth note.

     

    • ($199.99) lets players dial in sounds all the way to thick, fully saturated overdrive, using FET technology for Tube-like performance. Flexible tone controls unlock a wide range of sonic flavors and cleans up with the guitar’s volume control.
