Deep Sea Diver
The Benson Amps Deep Sea Diver - Fuzz-Echo is a captivating fusion of fuzz and echo that will transport your guitar tone to uncharted sonic realms. This pedal is the result of a collaboration between Benson Amps and Jessica Dobson of the acclaimed Seattle band Deep Sea Diver, who sought to capture the essence of her signature sound - a delightful marriage of gritty fuzz and atmospheric delay. At the heart of the Fuzz-Echo lies a three-transistor silicon fuzz circuit that has been meticulously tweaked to deliver a mesmerizing range of tones. The interactive "bias" and "gate" controls allow you to sculpt the fuzz, morphing it from a searing treble boost to a thick, textured wall of distortion, with a touch of that signature "skronky" Deep Sea Diver flavor. The echo section, derived from a tweaked PT2399 chip, seamlessly integrates with the fuzz, offering intuitive control over time, feedback, and level. Holding down the footswitch sends the echo into a sustained feedback, which, when combined with a short delay time, can conjure up the ethereal textures found throughout Deep Sea Diver's discography. One unique feature of the Fuzz-Echo is the ability to change the order of the fuzz and echo, allowing you to experiment and discover new sonic possibilities. With its versatility and Jessica Dobson's seal of approval, the Benson Amps Deep Sea Diver - Fuzz-Echo is a must-have for any guitarist seeking to expand their sonic palette and explore the outer reaches of fuzz and delay.
