Keeley Sfocato Fuzz Wah
Keeley · pedal
The Keeley Sfocato is a combined fuzz and wah pedal from Keeley Electronics, integrating heavy fuzz saturation with an envelope filter or wah circuit for expressive filter-fuzz character in a single enclosure. The combined format provides the interactive fuzz-wah tonal character associated with psychedelic and funk-influenced guitar without requiring two separate pedals. The name Sfocato refers to blurred, out-of-focus tonal character in Italian.
