We have become so used to seeing Beetronics come up with a series of original fuzz pedals that its latest stompbox is something of a surprise: the aptly named Wannabee is a double-drive pedal with drive circuits that, while no doubt having Beetronics’ own slant on things, are based on the familiar and perennially popular Klon Centaur and Marshall Bluesbreaker pedals.
The Bluesbreaker inspiration is to the left and is called circuit #0, while the Klon-style is to the right and is called circuit #1. Both sides of the pedal are independently footswitchable so can be used individually or combined: a three-way toggle switch determines which will come first in a serial order or, alternatively, the two being used together in parallel, opening up a whole new scenario of sonic blends.
