Overview

A new era of bass fuzz.

Prepare to be amazed. Death by Audio has redefined what bass fuzz can be with the Bass War effects pedal. This fuzz/distortion pedal unleashes immense power and tonal depth, capable of shaking the very foundations of your sound. Crafted specifically for bass players, the Bass War combines massive gain, a vast tone sweep and a handy mix control to deliver a truly earth-shattering performance.

Unleash the Ultimate Fuzz Power

The Bass War is built to go beyond ordinary fuzz pedals, providing a wide-ranging sound that can be as subtle or destructive as you need. From raunchy overdrive to full-blown sonic mayhem, this pedal boasts extraordinary levels of gain and tone flexibility. Dial in blistering distortion or blend your clean signal with fuzz for a more controlled bass sound.

A Pedal Built for Versatility

With controls that offer extended ranges, the Bass War adapts to any situation. The FUZZ knob alone can transform your sound from a gritty, grinding overdrive to a wall of fuzz. The TONE control features a deep notch filter, giving you a massive range of tonal options that can mimic an entire collection of fuzz pedals. Meanwhile, the MIX knob helps retain clarity and low-end presence, letting you stay in control even at extreme fuzz levels.

Designed for Heavy-Duty Performance

Death by Audio’s punk aesthetic isn’t just for show—the Bass War is as tough as it looks. Its rugged enclosure and raw, spray-painted design hold up to even the most aggressive performances. And with supercharged volume on tap, this pedal can take your bass sound beyond what you thought possible, from quiet riffs to sonic destruction.

Perfect for Bass Players Who Need More

The Bass War is designed for players who demand the most from their gear. Whether you're a fuzz aficionado looking for a new level of distortion or a bassist who needs a pedal that delivers intense volume without losing clarity, this pedal has everything you need to stand out on stage or in the studio.
