Fender The Pelt V2 Fuzz Pedal
Fender The Pelt V2 Fuzz Pedal
The Fender Pelt V2 is a highly versatile analogue fuzz pedal that combines classic silicon transistor fuzz with modern tone-shaping features. Designed for players who want everything from vintage-inspired fuzz to aggressive, experimental textures, it offers an impressive range of sounds in a road-ready, pedalboard-friendly format.
At its core, the Pelt V2 delivers powerful fuzz tones with intuitive Fuzz, Tone and Level controls, while the unique Bloom and Sag controls allow you to fine-tune the pedal's response. Adjust the attack, sustain and compression of your sound, from smooth, singing sustain to gated, sputtering fuzz with plenty of character.
Additional Mids and Thick switches provide instant EQ shaping, allowing you to boost midrange presence or add extra low-end weight to suit different guitars, amplifiers and musical styles.
The dedicated Octave/Chaos footswitch unlocks even more creative possibilities. Engage the Octave mode for classic octave-up fuzz sounds, or switch to Chaos mode for unpredictable, glitch-inspired octave textures filled with sputtering harmonics and unique sonic artefacts.
The Pelt V2 also features a Blend control, allowing you to mix your clean signal with the fuzz effect. This is particularly useful for bass players who want to retain low-end clarity, or guitarists looking to preserve note definition while adding rich fuzz saturation.
Built with flexibility in mind, the Pelt V2 offers selectable true bypass or buffered bypass operation, Multiswitch compatibility for both latching and momentary switching, and relay-based auto-bypass when power is disconnected. Housed in a durable aluminium enclosure with top-mounted jacks, it's ready for both the studio and the stage.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Fender Pelt V2 an analogue fuzz pedal?
Yes. The Pelt V2 uses an analogue silicon transistor circuit to produce everything from classic vintage-style fuzz to modern, highly saturated textures.
What do the Bloom and Sag controls do?
Bloom and Sag allow you to shape how the fuzz reacts to your playing. They control the pedal's attack, sustain, compression and gated characteristics, making it easy to dial in everything from smooth sustain to sputtering, broken-up fuzz.
What is the difference between Octave and Chaos mode?
Octave mode adds a traditional octave-up effect for classic lead tones and vintage fuzz sounds. Chaos mode creates an asymmetrical octave effect with glitchy, unpredictable harmonics and gated artefacts for more experimental sounds.
What does the Blend control do?
The Blend control mixes your clean signal with the fuzz effect. This helps retain note clarity and low-end definition, making the pedal particularly popular with bass players and guitarists using high-gain settings.
Is the Fender Pelt V2 suitable for bass guitar?
Yes. Thanks to the Blend control and buffer-friendly input stage, the Pelt V2 works exceptionally well with both bass and guitar, allowing bass players to maintain punch and low-end while adding rich fuzz tones.
What do the Mids and Thick switches do?
The Mids switch enhances midrange frequencies to help your sound cut through a mix, while the Thick switch boosts low frequencies for a fuller, heavier fuzz tone.
Can I use the Pelt V2 with other overdrive or distortion pedals?
Yes. The Blend control makes the Pelt V2 particularly effective when used alongside other gain pedals, allowing you to combine clean, driven and fuzz tones for unique textures.
Does the Fender Pelt V2 support true bypass?
Yes. The pedal features selectable true bypass and buffered bypass modes, allowing you to choose the best option for your pedalboard setup.
What power supply does the Fender Pelt V2 require?
The Pelt V2 operates from a standard 9V DC centre-negative power supply. A power supply is not included.
Is the Fender Pelt V2 suitable for live performance?
Absolutely. Its rugged aluminium enclosure, top-mounted jacks, selectable bypass modes and Multiswitch compatibility make it an excellent choice for touring musicians and regular gigging.
