OBNE Pardner Pedal Review

The Old Blood Noise Endeavors Pardner fuzz isn’t just another distortion box. It blends thick, fuzzy tones with a synth-like edge, creating textures that feel alive and unpredictable. The built-in Lasso effects loop lets you mix in your favorite pedals, adding even more dimension to your tone. You can also shape your fuzz with a dedicated voice toggle, filter, and intensity controls.

But what makes the OBNE Pardner stand out is its flexibility. With the Order switch, you can rearrange the signal flow - placing the fuzz before or after the effects loop, or even running them in parallel. Separate footswitches for fuzz and overdrive give you total control. Whether you're chasing thick walls of distortion or experimenting with layered effects, the Pardner fuzz delivers a truly unique experience.

Old Blood Noise Pardner Fuzz Pedal FAQs

What Kind of Tones Can I Get From the OBNE Pardner Fuzz?

The Pardner fuzz pedal delivers thick, textured fuzz with a synthy twist. Depending on how you set the controls, you can get everything from tight, gritty rhythms to resonant, warbling lead tones. The built-in EQ and voice toggle let you fine-tune the response, making it easy to dial in something unique.

How Does the Lasso Effects Loop Work on the OBNE Pardner Pedal?

The Lasso section functions as a built-in overdrive that you can use on its own or combine with the fuzz. It also features a send and return loop, allowing you to patch in external effects. This means you can place anything from reverb to another fuzz pedal inside the loop to create layered, evolving textures.

Can I Change the Order of the Fuzz and Effects Loop on the OBNE Pardner?

Yes! The Order switch lets you place the fuzz before or after the Lasso section, or even run them in parallel. This opens up a wide range of tones, from a more traditional fuzz-into-overdrive setup to a looser, blended sound where both elements interact dynamically.

Is the Pardner Fuzz Pedal Good for Genres Outside of Rock?

Absolutely. While it’s great for rock and experimental music, the OBNE Pardner pedal also shines in electronic, ambient, and even percussive applications. You can run drums or synths through it for unusual textures, or use it on bass to create thick, cutting tones.

Does the Pardner Pedal Have True Bypass?

Yes, the Old Blood Noise Pardner Fuzz features relay-based true bypass when both footswitches are off. This ensures that your signal remains clean and unaffected when the pedal isn’t engaged.

Will the Pardner Pedal Work With Bass?

Yes! The OBNE Pardner Fuzz handles low-end frequencies well, making it a great option for bass players looking for a thick, aggressive fuzz tone. The EQ controls help shape the response to keep the low end punchy and clear.

What Type of Power Supply Does the OBNE Pardner Fuzz Pedal Needs?

The Pardner Fuzz runs on a standard 9V DC, center-negative power supply (2.1mm plug) and requires approximately 80mA of current. It does not support battery operation.

Can I Use the Footswitches Separately on the Pardner Pedal?

Yes! The fuzz and Lasso sections each have their own footswitch, so you can engage them independently. This means you can use just the fuzz, just the overdrive, or both together for a wide range of tones.
