The Trashy Blonde by Stone Deaf FX is a versatile paracentric distortion filter pedal designed to deliver dynamic Marshall-style distortion and powerful parametric EQ control. Manufactured in the United Kingdom using high- quality components, this pedal is inspired by the classic Marshall tone of the JTM45 through to the JCM800, making it extremely versatile for a wide range of applications.
Key Features:
- Paracentric EQ: The Trashy Blonde features a parametric EQ with a para-
centric cut/boost design, allowing precise control over frequency bands from
20 Hz to 6 kHz. The 5-way rotary switch sets the bandwidth, enabling users to
dial in anything from a wide swath to a narrow slice of frequencies.
- Distortion Control: The pedal offers a "Trash" control to adjust the
intensity of the British-flavored distortion, providing a range of overdriven
tones reminiscent of classic rock bands like AC/DC and Led Zeppelin.
- Overdrive Bypass: Users can bypass the overdrive circuit via footswitching,
allowing the application of EQ to clean tones. Additionally, the pedal
supports connection with Stone Deaf's optional expression pedal for real-time
frequency changes and unique phasing and wah effects.
- Mix Control: The mix knob enables the blending of the relative amounts of
dry and affected signals, offering flexibility for both guitarists and
bassists.
Design and Build:
The Trashy Blonde pedal features a bold gold finish and a robust, weighty
construction with substantial knobs and switches. It includes a side-mounted
9V battery drawer for quick battery changes.
Functionality and Use-Cases:
The Trashy Blonde is suitable for guitarists and bassists seeking precise tone
shaping and versatile overdrive capabilities. It can be used to shape clean
tones with surgical precision, mimic different pickup tones, and achieve a
wide range of overdriven and distorted sounds, from classic rock to high-gain
territory.
Overall, the Trashy Blonde by Stone Deaf FX offers a powerful and flexible EQ section combined with buttery British-flavored overdrive, making it a dual- channel tone processor suitable for professional musicians and tone enthusiasts.
