SOUND QUALITY

This is vintage that's what I was looking for, we find this fuzz with this particular character who made his first album of Led Zeppelin whole lotta love to immigrant song through the Stone with satisfaction or other frankly in the noise ... this was very characteristic of the middle Bender has nothing to do with the Fuzz Face is much more in bass ... There also crading this side that gives it its charm and its grain of time, then we like it or not, I'm a fan
I am not using the pre-gain too saturated for my taste the switch tone color is very light as an option I find not useless but not quite frank the collar

OVERALL OPINION

I nabbed at 150 € secondhand is no regrets when you see the reissue of JMI to 398 € calms very quickly larfeuille for comparing the two there is still a small difference with a big price difference lol
I will also talk about the Fulltone SoulBender MKII and EWS Fuzzy Drive, the EWS has nothing to do so to forget very quickly and when the Fulltone it to sound more modern for my taste is not bad but I do not find the vintage side so much Led Zep bit disappointed especially to 199 € the pedal is the only market available Bender ... damage
Pedal purchased for import by the owner and I do not separate myself so for the fans of Tone Bender if you find the Throbak Stone Bender, you know what you have to do ...
