Expand your sonic palette with the Electro-Harmonix Flatiron Fuzz, a versatile fuzz/distortion pedal powered by an op-amp and inspired by the late '70s classic circuitry. Whether you're after a subtle grit or a full-on arena rock assault, the Flatiron Fuzz has you covered. At lower drive settings, it adds a pleasing mild distortion, but crank it up and you'll be rewarded with spectacular, thick tones reminiscent of classic rock anthems.

The Flatiron Fuzz's secret weapon is its unique Filter control, which functions as a low pass filter with a movable cut-off frequency. This allows you to dial in the perfect amount of high-end, from dark and sultry to sharp and raunchy.

Named after the iconic Flatiron Building in New York City, a landmark located just a stone's throw away from the EHX headquarters in the 1970s, the Flatiron Fuzz carries a piece of music history in its compact, pedalboard-friendly design.
