Tone Bender MKII / Tone Bender MK1.5 / Germanium Boost (3-in-1)
Three-in-one MKII Tone Bender / MK1.5 Tone Bender / Germanium Boost with a trio of 1960's New Market NKT transistors.
The fuzz channel is a flip of the earliest Fuzz Face circuits built by Dallas Arbiter in the mid 1960's. This pedal features vintage Sprague, Eromak, and TRW capacitors, carbon comp resistors, and a pair of New Market NKT72U transistors for a sound that is true to the original. An external bias control modifies the character of the fuzz for a range of classic and eccentric fuzz tones.
The boost channel is a colored boost inspired by the input stage of the MKII. Use it as a standalone boost or stack it with your favorite drive for a touch sensitive boost that responds to changes in guitar volume (place first in chain for best results). This version features a switch that alters the EQ of the pedal for treble booster tones in the high setting, a mid-forward boost in the mid setting, and a full range boost in the low setting.
Stack both sides for a true MKII Tone Bender. This configuration takes advantage of the shared circuit topology of the Fuzz Face and MKII.
