JHS Bender Fuzz Pedal

Description: Vintage-inspired Fuzz Box From the JHS Legends of Fuzz series of vintage-inspired fuzz pedals, the JHS Bender puts the celebrated tone of a rare Sola Sound Tone Bender at your feet. When pedal maker Gary Hurst first introduced the Tone Bender, it was a game changer that was quickly embraced by the artists of the day, including the Beatles, Led Zeppelin, and Jeff Beck. Over the decades, it has remained a perennial favorite of tone chasers, helping to define the sound of British shoegaze in the late 1980s and early '90s, and now popping up on the pedalboards of revivalist psych rockers and vintage gear enthusiasts. The Bender replicates Josh Scott’s most prized version of the Tone Bender, the 1973 MK3 Silver/Orange “Onomatopoeia” edition. The Bender retains the original 3-germanium-transistor design but rectifies the reliability issues of that unit, giving you all the tone with none of the hassles.

Guitarists at Sweetwater love the sonic flexibility the Bender has to offer along with its straightforward design and hefty all-metal enclosure. The Bender is a slice of rock ‘n’ roll history that is as relevant today as it was nearly 60 years ago.Dynamic fuzz box with a huge tonal range Unlike some fuzz pedals, which are full onslaught all the time, the Bender is highly expressive and sensitive to picking dynamics, going from a restrained crunch when picked lightly to a gnarly growl when you dig in. Three simple controls — Volume, Tone, and Attack — offer up a wealth of sonic flexibility, letting you tailor your sound from dark to bright and even dialing up a gated effect when the Attack knob is cranked. The Bender also has a new trick — a JHS Mode button, which amps up the gain and boosts the mids for extra howl. Like all the Legends of Fuzz pedals, the Bender is housed in a stunning custom wedge-shaped bent-metal enclosure with throwback knobs and full-metal badge plates — an old-school look to match its old-school tone.The JHS Legends of Fuzz Series According to JHS founder Josh Scott, the invention of fuzz pedals was one of the most significant events in the history of the electric guitar and popular music. JHS has been creating innovative fuzz boxes for over a decade, but this time around, they’ve chosen to pay tribute to the great fuzz boxes of the past. The JHS Legends of Fuzz series features period-accurate re-creations of some of the most famous fuzz circuit designs of all time, with a few JHS-exclusive twists. As these original fuzz pedals have become increasingly rare, prices of working units on the collectors’ market have skyrocketed, making them inaccessible to most players. Now, with JHS’s Legend of Fuzz pedals, players from all walks of life will be able to enjoy these storied tone machines and experience the magic of some of the finest fuzz boxes ever produced.JHS Bender Fuzz Pedal Features: Faithfully re-created tribute to JHS founder Josh Scott’s prized 1973 MK3 Tone Bender fuzz pedal Responsive to picking dynamics, from restrained crunch to full-out sonic aggression Offers up a wide range of dark and bright fuzz tones JHS Mode button provides a gain boost and a mid-frequency bump for extra howl Housed in a custom wedge-shaped bent-metal enclosure Vintage-style knobs and full-metal badge plate Optional battery power for authentic vintage operation SpecificationDetail Pedal Type Fuzz Analog/Digital Analog Inputs 1 x 1/4" Outputs 1 x 1/4" Bypass Switching True Bypass EQ Tone Control Controls Attack Power Source 9V DC power supply (sold separately) Batteries 1 x 9V Power Usage 4mA Height 2.0" Width 3.62" Depth 5.68" Weight 0.85 lbs.
