Ferocious Fuzz with Plenty of Flavor

Darkglass has heard the calls of bassists around the world and worked to re-engineer a fan favorite, resurrecting the Duality Fuzz in the form of the Dual Fuzz Engine Mini Pedal. Small only in size, the Duality Dual Fuzz Engine delivers thundering lows with a veneer of distinctive, full-bodied fuzz. Its unique assembly comprises two individual discrete circuits: a gated sawtooth wave and a wicked high-octane grit. With the straightforward control scheme, the Duality knob blends between these two circuits, letting you dial in that sweet spot for your tone, while the level knob handles the overall output. Plus, the rear magnetic cover can be easily removed from the backplate to reveal internal blend and filter controls to manage the higher registers of the distorted tone and the blending curve of the circuits, respectively. Add in its pedalboard-friendly size and rugged housing, and you’ve got a pint-sized powerhouse that Sweetwater bassists consider a welcome return to form.

Darkglass Duality Dual Fuzz Engine Mini Pedal Features:

  • Straightforward design includes rugged housing, responsive engagement, and ergonomic knobs for streamlined, reliable use
  • Unique dual-engine circuitry uses 2 distinctive fuzz circuits blended together to dial in your tone
  • Rear compartment with magnetic cover is easily opened for further blend-curve and frequency-management controls
  • 9V DC-powered adapter required (not included)

What is Demo Gear?

At Sweetwater, we're so picky that what we call a "demo" is actually better than what most music retailers sell as "new" gear! Our gear hasn't endured hundreds of people a week plunking away at all the keyboards, fumbling through Stairway to Heaven on every guitar or playing with every fader and knob on a mixer or control surface.

What demo means to us is that we've had it out of the box, or maybe it was in a customer's hands for a few days and isn't "factory fresh" as a result. Every demo item we sell has Sweetwater's 2-year Total Confidence Coverage™ warranty, and has been tested and verified up to "new" specs by our factory-authorized technicians to make sure it's in perfect working order before we ship it to you.

When you buy a Demo item at Sweetwater, you get:
  • 2-year Total Confidence Coverage Warranty™!
  • Products inspected and tested by our factory-authorized techs, guaranteed to function like new (or better)!
  • FREE shipping on most items
  • Equipment that will MEET or EXCEED your expectations!

Rated 5/5

Fantastic on bass and guitar

I own a LOT of fuzz pedals, but I'm always looking for something unique and flexible. The DFZ is absolutely what I was hoping it'd be. It's sounds fantastic on bass, and goes anywhere from sputtering, gated fuzz, to open, ripping modern sounds. The pleasant surprise was how great it sounds with guitar. If you're on the fence - pull the trigger. You won't be returning this one.
Rated 5/5

Incredible fuzz

I recently swapped out my Way Huge Pork & Pickle for this and I'm extremely happy I did. This fuzz sounds so good the first time I engaged the pedal my jaw dropped. Can get very synthy all on its own, but combined with an octave pedal it's perfection. Also I really love the aesthetic of this pedal: it's very clean-looking and the rose gold color is very nice.
Rated 3/5

Didn't love the design

This pedal sounds great and has a sleek, modern Apple-product aesthetic and good build quality. The downside is the light is very dim and at outdoor or brightly-lit gigs I couldn't tell if the pedal was on or not. I also strongly dislike that half the controls are hidden behind a back plate, making it difficult to tweak levels without removing the pedal completely from the board and then making guess-and-check adjustments. I highly recommend the Vintage Mircrotubes from Darkglass for as an overdrive pedal, but I'd look elsewhere for a fuzz.
