Forza

The Forza by Seymour Duncan is a full-range, highly adjustable, and transparent overdrive pedal designed for players seeking increased gain without sacrificing the natural voice of their guitar. The pedal utilizes a glass diode, back-to-back stack overdrive circuit and features true hard-wire bypass switching. Its control functionality includes a gain control range of 11dB to 37dB, bass adjustment at 90 Hz +/- 11dB, mid adjustment at 750 Hz +/- 11dB, and treble adjustment at 2.1 kHz +/- 12dB.

The Forza offers up to 37dB of gain and a three-band EQ for controlling lows, mids, and high-end frequencies. It can also function as a clean boost, with the level control providing ample range. The pedal has an input impedance of 470k Ohms, an output impedance of 1K Ohms, and a maximum output before saturation of 0.6Vrms. It can be powered by a 9V battery or an external 9V to 18V regulated DC adapter (center negative), with a current consumption of 4.5mA.

The dimensions of the Forza pedal are 2.61” x 4.90” x 1.45”, and it weighs 0.8lb without a battery. The pedal is hand-crafted in the USA and is designed to deliver a tonally transparent overdrive, suitable for use with a clean channel or an already-overdriven amp.
