PEDALS

2 BECOME 1

What’s an easy way to make a pedal twice as good? Build two of them into one! Fender’s new Dual/Duel versions of its popular Marine Layer Reverb and Pugilist Distortion pedals do just that, but there’s some added spice sprinkled in too. As well as giving you twoof everything (that’s two lots of switchable Hall, Room and Shimmer ’verbs), along with twice the control set, Fender has added an infinite sustain circuit to the Dual Marine Layer Reverb (£199). Likewise, the Duel Pugilist Distortion (£179) gives you two distortion channels with gain, level and tone for each - plus a master high/low EQ and blend control. But what’s more, is the ability to select how the two interact via a Mute/Series/Bypass toggle, allowing for stacking and blending. Both pedals are available now. www.fender.com
