B-STOCK - Stuart Zender - Funk Face

Get ready to groove with the Ashdown Stuart Zender Funk Face VU, launching in September 2023! Designed in collaboration with bass virtuoso Stuart Zender, known for his work with Jamiroquai, this pedal is a dedicated bass twin dynamic filter that captures the essence of those signature "Virtual Insanity" basslines. 

The Funk Face features an intuitive 3-knob and 2-switch layout, making it easy for bass players to dial in their funky tones. The 'Sensitivity' control lets you shape the pedal's response, while the 'Output' knob allows you to control the intensity. By tweaking these controls, you can go from subtle filtering to a full-blown "Funk Bass in your Face" Auto Wah, all based on your playing style and dynamics.

Additionally, the emulated 'Valve' drive distortion switch enriches harmonics, and the Wah effect is foot-switchable. Plus, a strategically placed switch lets you decide whether the valve overdrive comes before or after the Wah, offering even more tonal possibilities.

The SZ Funk Face boasts genuine true bypass switching, ensuring your input signal remains pristine when the pedal is off. The Output level control doubles as a clean level boost when the Wah feature isn't active, helping you cut through the mix when you need it.

Please note that the pedal requires a minimum of 9v with a 45mA draw (centre pin negative), power supply not included.
