The Death By Audio Bass War takes bass fuzz to an entirely new level. Inspired by the legendary Fuzz War but specially designed for bass guitar, this pedal delivers huge gain, massive low end, and a brutal, harmonically rich fuzz tone.
With the extensive FUZZ, TONE, and MIX controls, you can effortlessly switch between gritty overdrive, heavy distortion, and complete sonic chaos — all without losing clarity or low-end punch.
The unique TONE control functions as a powerful notch filter, offering an impressively wide range of usable fuzz sounds. Thanks to the MIX control, you’ll always retain the punch and depth of your original bass tone.
Wrapped in a raw DBA enclosure with the brand’s unmistakable punk-inspired aesthetic, the Bass War is not only loud and aggressive, but also a true eye-catcher on any pedalboard.
Death by Audio
Death by Audio is a Brooklyn-based company known for creating innovative and experimental guitar effects pedals. Founded in 2002 by musician and engineer Oliver Ackermann (of the band A Place to Bury Strangers), the company gained a reputation for crafting high-quality, handmade pedals that produce unique, often aggressive sounds.
Their designs cater to musicians seeking noise-heavy, distortion-filled, and unconventional tones, with products like the “Fuzz War” and “Echo Dream” becoming popular among experimental rock and shoegaze artists.
In addition to its pedals, Death by Audio was also a multi-use space in Brooklyn, which functioned as a music venue, recording studio, and artist collective until it closed in 2014.
