BLAMMO! Electronics P2P Tone Bender MKi Pedal

The Tone Bender MKi is a hand-wired point-to-point pedal 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).

BLAMMO! Electronics P2P Tone Bender MKi Pedal Review

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 ensure a tight response and a 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 accidentally. Lovingly built by hand into a pedalboard-friendly enclosure with top-mounted power and input/output jacks.

Just two controls;LEVEL is controlled by the leftmost knob, and the one on the right isATTACK, 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 and’ raw fuzz tone with good sustain and mid-frequency character.
