Take a walk on the dark side of the moon with the Keeley Dark Side fuzz/modulation pedal. It’s the easiest way to get you into ‘Floyd’ territory with two separate electronics circuits; a versatile fuzz on one side and an array of modulation on the other.

You’ll have access to some of the world’s most famous tones with big ambient tape delays and long-sustaining phasers and flange sounds. Select which circuit enters first into the signal chain for endless tonal possibilities.

Fuzz

The Dark Side fuzz ranges from mild and woolly to blazing mid-range punch to cut through a mix. You can dial in a precise amount of fuzz thanks to sensitive controls, as well as a level for the gain.

It also has 3 switchable parameters:

  • Flat – A standard starting point. Great for Single-coil guitars as they already have enough prominent twang.
  • Scoop – For fat, chunky rhythm sounds. ‘Muff said.
  • Full – This will give you enough cut to push through a band mix for any solos. Shine on…

Modulation

The left side of the pedal contains powerful modulation circuit. The Dark Side’s scope of modulations will launch you out the stratosphere and beyond. They are designed for swirly ambience. And they’re completely voiced to compliment the fuzz, so you won’t lose your guitar sound in the mix. They are :

  • Flanger – Metallic flanger for sheering, cutting modulation.  
  • Rotary – For tremolo-esque sounds. Sounds great on a clean or mild overdrive.
  • U-vibe – Swirly, washy, 70s sounds. Hendrix loved it amongst many others.
  • Phaser – Big and washy without being too brash.

Specifications

  • Expression Output
  • 9v Power Input

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

The Important stuff

Dark. Fuzz — Fuzz is one of the earliest and most distinctive guitar effects, known for its thick, gritty, and saturated tone that completely transforms your sound. It works by heavily clipping the audio signal, producing a raw, almost broken distortion that defined the sound of the ’60s and ’70s rock era. Classic pedals like the Fuzz Face and Big Muff became legendary for their roaring sustain and rich harmonic texture. Modern fuzz pedals range from vintage-style warmth to wild, synth-like chaos, making them perfect for players who want to add character, attitude, and a touch of chaos to their tone.. Modulation. Pedal — Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own..
