TONE SEEKER MK1.5

The TONE SEEKER MK1.5 is the hidden gem in the Bender lineup! For a very short time the originals were being made in the 60s in MKII enclosures with no obvious distinction outside, but inside was a simpler 2 transistor fuzz with perfect balance between smooth FuzzFace and punchy Tonebender. Sure to satisfy any fuzz lover!
Thick midrange emphasis and a gnarly texture is what separates this from the FuzzFace. A leakier transistor selection gives you the nastier Bender type textures and a smaller value volume pot like the MKII Professional Benders tighten up the low end and focus the midrange. Cleans up great with your guitar volume as well, which is something your typical Bender does not do! If you’re after a bender attack and texture but prefer the dynamic response and feel of a FuzzFace this is the one for you!
Meticulously built on wide pitch Vero using the original circuit layout of the 1960s. 1590BB size enclosure in Silver or Gold powdercoat with custom OG style printed graphics.
Options for transistors for “Builders Choice” using more affordable and readily available transistors, or “British Upgrade” for NKT, Mullard, Brimar, Texas Instruments etc transistors. If you’re looking for something specific send me an email!
Please allow 4-6 weeks for build time on your custom made fuzz.
