This is a recreation of the late 1960s Sola Sound Tone Bender MKIV three-transistor Buzzaround based fuzz circuit. At its heart are NOS 1960s Mullard OC140 germanium transistors, individually tested and hand-matched for optimum gain & leakage. These transistors impart the unmistakable warm, harmonically rich sag and snarling midrange that define the earliest British fuzz tones.
Each pedal is carefully built one at a time using 1960s construction techniques and NOS components. The result is a fuzz that delivers a thick, chewy saturation, blooming sustain, and expressive clean-up.
