Classic ‘70s Design for Iconic Fuzz Tones
The Flatiron Fuzz is built on classic ‘70s-era circuitry, designed to produce that iconic symmetrical hard-clipping distortion that has been a staple of rock music for decades. The pedal's op-amp powered fuzz circuitry provides a thick, creamy sound, capable of producing that signature raunchy fuzz sound heard on countless iconic guitar tracks. Whether you're looking to emulate classic rock tones or push your sound into modern territories, this pedal provides a versatile and familiar fuzz that’s easy to dial in and makes a statement.

Versatile Gain Control for Every Style
The drive control on the Electro-Harmonix Flatiron Fuzz gives you total control over the amount of sustain and distortion in your sound. At lower settings, you can add subtle grit to your clean tone, perfect for achieving that "broken-in" sound. As you increase the drive, you’ll unlock everything from a meaty classic rock distortion to an intense, saturated fuzz. Crank it all the way up, and you'll reach symmetrical hard-clipping fuzz tones that cut through any mix, adding bold character to your solos and riffs. The ability to easily shape the fuzz sound with the Drive knob makes this pedal incredibly versatile and ideal for a variety of genres.

Filter Control for Shaping Tone
The Filter control on the Electro-Harmonix Flatiron Fuzz allows you to shape your sound with precision. As a lowpass filter, it provides adjustable cutoff frequencies, enabling you to fine-tune your tone to your exact liking. Dial it down for darker, more grungy sounds or open it up for brighter, sharper fuzz tones. This feature adds an additional layer of tone-shaping control, allowing you to create everything from extreme raunchy grunge to smooth, thick fuzz. With the Filter knob, you can tailor your tone to fit any musical context, making the Flatiron Fuzz an incredibly flexible addition to your pedalboard.

Easy-to-Use with True Bypass Switching
The simple 3-knob layout of the Electro-Harmonix Flatiron Fuzz ensures that you can dial in your perfect tone quickly, without being overwhelmed by too many controls. The three knobs — Volume, Drive, and Filter — are intuitive and provide all the essential functions needed to achieve your desired sound. Furthermore, the true-bypass switching ensures that when the pedal is off, your guitar’s tone remains pristine and uncolored. This means you can preserve the natural sound of your instrument when the fuzz is not in use, giving you complete control over your tone at all times.

Compact Design for Easy Integration
Despite its powerful sound, the Electro-Harmonix Flatiron Fuzz boasts a compact, pedalboard-friendly design. Its small footprint ensures that it fits easily into your pedalboard setup, saving space while still delivering a punchy, aggressive fuzz tone. The sturdy build ensures that the pedal will hold up to the demands of live performance, making it a reliable option for any gigging guitarist. Whether you're a professional musician or a hobbyist, the Flatiron Fuzz is built to last and integrate seamlessly into your existing gear.
