Flattley Guitar Pedals

The Flattley Bass Wah is based on the principles of several classic Wahs that use a filter known as the “twin t resonant filter”. During development, several genuine classic Wahs were analysed to determine the characteristics that give old Wahs “that sound”. The Flattley prototype Wah pedals were tested by several experienced users of older classic Wah pedals until they were satisfied that the sound was right.

The “Bass Filtron” is a bass guitar envelope filter which gives an auto wah style effect. This pedal has 3 control knobs for range, attack and decay plus a Hi/Lo toggle switch and has great sound control.

The “Valkyrie” Chorus pedal is our take on those 80’s flangers we all had but sadly sold at some point. Using similar delay line technology from that era, the Valkyrie pedal also has a wider range of control and depth to be able to do more than “just that chorus sound”.

The “Bass Star Fazer” is a 4 phase stage bass phaser with a quartet of matched transistors. The two control knobs allow you to dial in depth and rate giving you a clean, smooth super phasing effects.

The “Bass Poison Ivy” pedal is based on the sort of preamp you would find on a bass amplifier

The Ace” is a clean boost/buffer with the twist of having the Flattley “Solaris Pro” tone stack allowing it to be used as a clean boost (tone at middle), a treble boost (tone clockwise) or bass boost (tone anti-clockwise) and all stops in between.

The “Poison Ivy” octave harmonic fuzz pedal is modelled on a 60’s/early 70’s style Super Fuzz/Uni Fuzz but with some modern adjustments to improve the sound qualities.

The “Star Fazer” is a 4 phase stage guitar phaser with a quartet of matched transistors. The two control knobs allow you to dial in depth and rate giving you a clean, smooth super phasing effects.

The “Crazy Diamond” is a “univibe” phaser style effect pedal using four optically coupled stages to create a moving comb filter response with plenty of variation.

The “Bass Chief” is an op amp based distortion pedal specifically designed for bass instruments, however you can use it for guitar if you wish. The pedal buffers and splits the incoming signal, one half is distorted by the amount set by the ‘Gain’ control which is then further shaped by the ‘Bass’ and ‘Treble’ controls. The two signal paths meet again at the ‘Blend’ control allowing the original signal to be mixed with the distorted version.

The “Violet” pedal is an easy to use tremolo pedal with a classic style designed circuit and gorgeous warm tones.

The “DG Fuzz ” is effectively a “dual pedal” consisting of a simplified version of our “The Ace” tone booster pedal coupled with a 1960s style fuzz and a typical period tone stack. The inclusion of a buffer means the pedal can be placed anywhere in a chain of pedals without changing the behaviour of the fuzz circuitry.
