Warm Audio has teamed with The Black Keys’ Dan Auerbach on the limited-edition Peach Fuzz. The pedal revisits the company’s Foxy-style fuzz and octave circuit in a slimmer enclosure, using NOS 2N3565 Fairchild transistors, germanium 1N34A diodes and the expected volume, sustain and tone controls.
Auerbach’s contribution is clearest in the octave-up switching: players can choose latching operation or hold the switch momentarily for short accents. The peach-colored flocked finish nods to The Black Keys’ 2026 release Peaches!, and the pedal carries a $199 price.

Why it matters
The momentary octave option turns a familiar vintage-fuzz format into a more playable performance tool, and the artist collaboration is tied to a real circuit change.
