Fieldfare Antares - Versatile low-gain drive with 18 V headroom & precise sound fine-tuning
With the Fieldfare Audio Antares Overdrive, the botique pedal maker from the Rhineland delivers a compelling option for guitarists seeking a low- to mid-gain overdrive with exceptional dynamic range. To achieve this, the Antares runs at an internal operating voltage of 18 volts, providing extra headroom and a more responsive gain structure. Unlike many conventional overdrive pedals, the Antares features a 2-band equalizer, allowing precise control over bass and treble frequencies. It also includes a fat/clear switch that boosts the low end when nedded – perfect for thick, expressive lead tones. Another standout feature is the intelligent, relay-based intelligent true bypass. Alongside its convenient "Momentary" function, it lets players program the pedal's switching state, making it ideal for seamless integration into modern loop switcher setups.

Excerpt: "Michael: We founded the company in 2021. The idea came to us in 2020 during a business trip to Bulgaria. There at the hotel bar, over a few gin and tonics, we spun around a bit. The dream of officially building pedals had been buzzing around in Alex's head for a long time."
