Fender Hammertone Effects Pedals

Fender’s Hammertone effects pedals are well-designed, road-worthy and offer a nice range of sounds at prices that won’t break the bank. There are nine Hammertone pedals in all, including various distortion, time delay and modulation effects. They are all pedalboard-friendly and feature top-mounted input and output jacks. This lets you fit more pedals on the same board, while also increasing pedal routing options.

They are fitted in rugged aluminum enclosures with a uniform grey finish. The different models each have distinctly colored knobs and logos based on Fender’s historic custom colors. In a nice touch, the LED indicator lights up in the same color as the knobs, so you know which pedal is which on a dark stage. They are powered via a nine-volt adaptor or a battery that’s accessed by removing the baseplate via a single screw.

Although the Hammertone pedals are inexpensive, they are high quality and would be a great choice for a player looking for a user-friendly intro to the world of pedals or seasoned professional looking to fill a tonal gap on their pedalboard.
