Vox / JEN - MKII Professional Tonebender Silicon / JEN FUZZ / FZIII
Vintage and RARE. Circa 1973-78 - Made in Italy by JEN/FBT.
A very rare variant in the Tonebender timeline. At first this unit appears to be the VOX V828 MkII Tonebender and indeed shares the same graphics face plate as the 2nd version V828s.
However, this particular circuit varies greatly due to its use of Silicon transistors instead of Germanium, and the introduction of a Diode clipping stage. The result a fuzz that does behave and sound like a Tonebender MKII Pro, but with more bite, more treble, a lot more available volume, and far less compression when driven hard.
The same case and circuit are found in later JEN FUZZ pedals, but it is a mystery as to whether this circuit was invented firstly to fulfil an order of VOX Tonebenders, or if it was a pre-existing JEN circuit that they later badged as VOX in order to fulfil an order (the timing of events would determine if it is a ‘legit’ Tonebender variant, or a sneaky contractural obligation fulfilment).
The JEN FUZZ can be found online featuring this exact case and circuit board but with a JEN faceplate covering the 3 x slots, and JEN Italy baseplate graphic.
All Original and very cool.
