Description
tone bender pedal Fuzz Unit #1 (P2P Tone Bender MK I)Fuzz Unit #1 is a hand wired point to point Tone Bender MKI tuned for a slightly gated raunchy fuzz tone. Made famous by Mick Ronson's usage on the early David Bowie stuff. One of the first fuzz pedals ever made (next to the FZ1a, which it is based on). My version stays true to the original by using NOS germanium transistors hand selected for gain and leakage plus carbon composition resistors, and a P2P build style that keeps the signal traces extra
Fuzz Unit #1 is a hand wired point to point Tone Bender MKI tuned for a slightly gated / raunchy fuzz tone. Made famous by Mick Ronson's usage on the early David Bowie stuff. One of the first fuzz pedals ever made (next to the FZ1a, which it is based on).
My version stays true to the original by using NOS germanium transistors hand selected for gain and leakage plus carbon composition resistors, and a P2P build style that keeps the signal traces extra short. New high quality Spague/Vishay capacitors are used to unsure a tight response and long life of rockin' in the free world. A beefed up power filtering section cleans up more of the muck and noise from cheaper power supplies plus a polarity protection diode safeguards the main circuit from damage if an incorrect power supply is used accidently. Lovingly built by hand into a pedalboard friendly enclosure with top mounted power and input / output jacks.
Just two controls; VOLUME is controlled by the leftmost knob and the one on the right is ATTACK, which is basically the gain control. Dialed to the left yields a skronky / lightly gated fuzz sound with early breakup and little sustain. Cranking it right reveals a meaty n' raw fuzz tone with good sustain and mid frequency character.
