Description

Unleash your inner funk master with the Ashdown FS-Funk Face, a signature effects pedal crafted with the discerning bassist in mind. Designed in collaboration with the legendary Stuart Zender of Jamiroquai, this pedal encapsulates the essence of groove with its real valve-driven distortion and dynamic filter capabilities. Whether you're aiming for those iconic "Virtual Insanity" vibes or exploring new sonic territories, the Funk Face provides a versatile toolkit to get you there.

Handmade in the UK Custom Shop, this pedal features a straightforward 3-knob and 2-switch layout, empowering you to shape your sound with ease. The 'Sensitivity' control lets you fine-tune the effects response, while the 'Output' knob determines the intensity of your funky expression. The real magic lies in the 12AX7 powered 'Valve' drive, which enriches your tone with authentic harmonic distortion at the tap of a footswitch. A strategically placed switch allows you to decide whether the valve overdrive is added pre or post-wah, opening up a world of tonal possibilities.

Built for the road, the Funk Face boasts a durable metal casing and premium components, ensuring reliability gig after gig. It operates best on an 18-volt supply but accommodates a 9-volt in a pinch, making it versatile for any setup. With its seamless blend of functionality and character, the Ashdown FS-Funk Face is not just an effects pedal; it's your ticket to bass-driven funk greatness.
