Tone Bender Style Fuzz Pedals
Tone Bender Style Fuzz Pedals
Delivering iconic tone with raw, aggressive grit or rich, harmonically charged sustain, this pedal defined the sound of an era. First unleashed in 1965, the Tone Bender is one of the most legendary fuzz pedals in rock history. Jimmy Page, Jeff Beck, Mick Ronson, and countless others made the Tone Bender their secret weapon—fuelling everything from scorching solos to thick, textured riffs.
There are multiple versions in the Tone Bender family, each with their own textural characteristics, offering something for every fuzz fanatic:
- MKI – Brutally aggressive with tight bass and extreme harmonic distortion.
- MKI.5 – A unique 2-transistor circuit gives this iteration a distinct tone and feel. More low-end leads to a thick, spitty fuzz bridging the gap between tone bender and Fuzz Face pedals.
- MKII – The classic Tone Bender. A balanced sound, famously used on "Whole Lotta Love."
- MKIII & MKIV – More versatility with added treble control, from smooth creamy fuzz to sharp, cutting aggression.
