NEX-5100 FuzzStortion
Fromwarm and fuzzy tohead-crushing,this one has allthe distortion you need! Blendthe
perfectmix, from 60-ish fuzztoneto end-of-the-millennium bombast. Carveouta heaping
scoop of midrange while leaving a sparkling top and a thunderous bottom — or leave the
mids intact and tweak the treble. You’ll love the buzz from this fuzz!
• Fuzz and Distortion in one pedal
• Two tone controls for optimal sonic contouring
• Broad range of sound, from light crunch to thick metal distortion
NEX-5200 Overdrive
Boost it! Crunch it! This NexFX is fat, lean, clean, mean, dirty, sweet, and in-
between. With squeaky clean Sustain or pumped up Overdrive, plus Mid, Treble,
and Level controls, you can change moods faster than a jilted lover on a bad hair
day. Make your leads sing!
• Rippin ’analog overdrive sound
• Sustain control for extra punch in your lead
• Threshold control for touch-sensitive effect
NEX-5300 StereoChorus
The greatest event in the history of swirl since chocolate met vanilla in a Kansas twister.
Lush swirling choruses with control for Depth, Speed, Wet/Dry Mix (no, not for your dog),
Tone, and Sabine’s unique Stereo Auto-Pan. Your head will spin as your guitar gently
whirls. It’s Tabernacle Choir awesome!
• True stereo effects; two outputs
• AutoPan function sweeps between outputs at adjustable rate
• Mix control let’s you balance effect and dry sound
NEX-5400 Compressor
Nowyou cut through the mix like a silk knifeora raging chain saw,without overpowering the
rest of the band. Ratio, Threshold, Level,Attack, and Tone Controls allow you to put 10 tons
of whammy into a 1 pound mix.Add punch without distortion — your sound will be clean, fat
and chillin’. Like your first kiss in the back of the movie theatre, it’s so smooooth and drawn out!
• Famous Sabine compressor
• Control Ratio, Threshold and Attack
• Clean sustain for punch without distortion
NEX-5500 Phlanger
It’s a phase shifter! It’s a flanger! It’s schizoid and funky! It’s two effects for the price of
one!Guaranteed to be more than just aphase you’re going through — with allthesounds
in this pedal, it’s more like a lifelong experiment. Sounds better than listening to the radio
on your ‘64 Cutlass in a magnetic storm! Go forth and multiply!
• Two effects in one: Flanger and Phaser
• Control Intensity, Speed and Regeneration
• Mix between both effects — create new sounds by combining effects
NEX-5000 Tuner
When we do a pedal tuner, you know it’s fast and accurate. Big, bright, multi-color LED
display for fearless tuning on stage! Four levels of flat tuning (down to low C), easy
recalibration, transparent signal path, two outputs, and a mute foot switch in a bombproof
metal case, all from the people who revolutionized guitar tuning. We’re doing it again!
