Fuzzes based on the Tonebender MK3/Jumbo

[Chronicle]

'Ello fellow effect addicts. Just wondering if anyone has seen any fuzzes based on the Tonebender MK3/Jumbo pedal. I've seen a couple of pedals based off the 2-knob MK2 Tonebender.

MKIII and Jumbo are different pedals.
MKIII clones include the Fulltone Soul Bender and Prescription Yard Box.
The current Colorsound Tone Bender is the same as the 70's Jumbo. The Barber Trifecta has a Jumbo mode but is not a strict clone of it.

I knew the jumbo and MK3 are different. I actually don't know the differences between the two.

In that case, a clone of today's version. I have one but i need a smaller enclosure.

you can re house it in a smaller box

I thought about that but the pots are ON the board so i can't take them off i believe... Plus i don't think the size would be that much smaller since the circuit board is huge as well.


I'll probably end up building a clone of it or finding a clone builder but i was just wondering.

The pots are on the board, but I believe there is still a mile of wasted space in the Tonbender case (at least there is in my 70's Jumbo). You could find a case that fits the circuit board and a battery etc without so much open air between everything perhaps?

The Barber Trifecta is probably the closest "clone" I know of, but like sonicvi said, it's not a strict clone.
