Tonebender

[Kinki fuzz]

The madbeanpedals Tonebender, very nice, easy and fast build, inexpensive, and sounds great. The fuzz pot has a wide range from quite clean to fully fuzzy and cleans up nicely with guitar volume. Makes me think why bother with the germanium stuff, this is a great fuzz.

Very nice build, Kinki.

It's amazing what so few parts can do.

Well done!

Looks great. Do you have issues with the knobs running into each other?

Thanks guys!!
Jabulani: no, there's like 1,5mm between them, just enough...

Also a fan of the ToneBender's, wich trannies did you end up using?

This looks great! I'm also curious about the transistors. I've got a yet-to-be-boxed MkII on vero and it's been a lot of fun trying out different ones to see what changes with the sound.

I bet that 100n cap at the output allows the silicon transistors to deliver a similar bass content to what you would get with germanium and 10n. Cool idea on Brian's part.

I used 2N3904s, didnt test any other, to tell the truth, these sound great!!

I am tempted to make one of these...
I have a couple of GE tonebenders and also a Hot SI fuzz but am wondering if this version has more ooomph and warmth.
Good build!  I like it
