Kevin Shields, an innovator and key influence on effects-laden guitar tones, created iconic walls of fuzz like the world had never heard before when he defined the sound of alternative rock in the 80s and 90s. His favourite tool for fuzz chaos: an original Fender® Blender effects pedal, prized for its dynamic response and gripping fuzz splattering. Over four years of joint development, Fender and Shields have revived this legendary 1970s fuzz and added a subversive feature set to create the all-new Fender Shields Blender.
At the heart of the Fender Shields Blender is the tone of Shields' own 1970s Fender Blender, the circuitry of which has been painstakingly recreated by hand. Around this vintage circuitry, completely new ways of controlling and blending the original fuzz voice have been developed, with four easily accessible footswitches for performance. Two footswitchable fuzz channels, each with its own level control, offer the ability to mix the fuzz voice with the clean signal or blend the fuzz voice with a powerful sub-octave fuzz, while the Sag footswitch introduces sputtering and ducking effects like you've never heard before, all controlled by the intensity of your playing dynamics.

When you hear a Fender Telecaster or a Fender Stratocaster, legendary songs such as "Purple Haze" by Jimi Hendrix, "Smoke on the Water" by Deep Purple and "Cocaine" by Eric Clapton immediately spring to mind. There is also a long history behind the famous Fender amps. Leo Fender started building guitar amps even before he built his first guitars. These were of course built using tube technology, Fender only started with solidstate models in the late 60s...
