The Pugilist Distortion brings heavyweight gain and flexible tonal shaping to your pedalboard with its innovative dual gain engine design. This all-original Fender circuit features independent tone controls for each channel, allowing you to dial in multiple variations of distortion that complement any rig setup.
The Series/Blend switch provides the versatility to stack channels for thick, cascading distortion tones, while the Bass Boost switch adds extra low-end punch when needed. The Blend control lets you mix both channels together, creating custom sounds that combine the best characteristics of each gain stage for truly personalised distortion.
Developed by Fender’s in-house design team with input from numerous players, this pedal packs stage-ready features into a lightweight, durable anodised aluminium chassis. The classic Amp Jewel LED maintains that authentic Fender aesthetic, while LED-backlit knobs ensure your settings remain visible even on dimly lit stages.
From subtle overdrive to brutal high-gain saturation, the Pugilist Distortion covers the full spectrum of distortion tones, making it a versatile addition to any guitarist’s effects arsenal.
