Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Ashdown Funk Faze is a bass twin dynamic filter pedal designed with Stuart Zender, Jamiroquai bassist. A twin dynamic filter circuit delivers everything from subtle envelope filtering to full auto-wah shaped by playing dynamics. Controls include Sensitivity, Mix, and Output (which doubles as a clean boost), plus two footswitches for effect bypass and drive engagement. Valve-emulated overdrive is switchable pre or post the wah filter. True bypass. 9V DC 45mA, 145.5 x 116.2 x 65mm, 0.9kg. Reviewed by Premier Guitar for thick foundation and harmonic detail.
The Ashdown Type 23 is a three-band dynamic bass filter pedal from the UK-manufactured PRO FX series. Three frequency bands (high, mid, and low) are processed by independent voltage-controlled envelope filters that generate speech-like and funky bass tones. A single Sensitivity control sets how strongly the filters respond to playing dynamics. A switch on the pedal base varies the oscillation frequency of the selected filter for further tonal shaping. Requires 18V isolated power supply. Steel housing with anodized fascias and Neutrik jack sockets. Dimensions 63 x 108 x 120mm, 0.6kg.
