Black Ash Fuzz

From the vendor

Really sweet silicon take on a Mk II Tone Bender. It was limited to 1500 units and is long gone, so here's your opportunity to recreate this fuzzy beast. Not as harsh as you may expect with this lacking the warm fuzziness of germanium cans. The designer has managed to choose wisely and keep the fizz in check. The added 'Top' control allows you to roll off some of the high end to make it fit into any setup. All the range you'd expect from a Mk II - light break-up to searing fuzz, and lots of clean up from the guitar volume. Nicely articulate. And all this with standard supply polarity - no messing around with positive ground. The kit is supplied with vertical-mount pots which have round shafts, so you'll need set-screw fitting knobs. If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page. Partial kit: PCB, all board-mounted components, pots. Full kit: As above, plus footswitch and appropriate daughterboard/components for your selected bypass type (see Downloads section for details of those), jack sockets, DC socket, battery snap, hook-up wire, LED. Enclosure (pre-drilled) is available as an option with full kits, and can take a battery if desired with footswitch positioned 22mm higher, closer to the controls. Knobs are not included. Builds are only available with full kits including enclosures. Please choose appropriate knobs.
