BlackBender - Vox Tonebender V828 Replica

The Vox ToneBender was another pedal in the ToneBender series, but it differs from most in its greatly increased treble response and its two-transistor circuit. The circuit itself predates the Fuzz Face, which means that Arbiter Electronics' famous Fuzz Face was probably based on this circuit.

The Vox ToneBender will have much more treble response than the Fuzz Face... perhaps to help brighten up those characteristically ‘dark’ sounding British amps a bit.

If you're looking for a great fuzz pedal that has plenty of treble, then the Vox ToneBender is certainly what you need.

To the classic volume & attack controls I have added an external bias that makes it an infinitely versatile effect.

Handcrafted & handwired point to point circuit.

Loosely based on the "Vox Tonebender V828" circuit.
