    I'm surprised that Josh even had to mention that the knobs are made from knobwood because you'd have to be deaf to not immediately recognize the distinct character that it imparts to the signal. It's great that the knobs are raised and harvested organically, but what was the NAME of the knobwood tree that the Crimson tone knob was harvested from? And is there a bird on it? I am far from convinced (snnniiifff)!

    I bought a Big Muff clone after watching a bunch of your videos and listening to players like Stu G and Dan Auerbach. I started to realize that a lot of classic sounds that I love were fuzz instead of overdrive or distortion. Also fuzz is surprisingly versatile depending on what kind of signal you cascade it into.
    So you converted one person. :)

    I used to think I didn’t like fuzz and would never use as a guitarist, but I think since watching the JHS Show and your show in the last two years my opinion has definitely changed having learnt much more from both channels, now I think I’m a fuzz addict, now I love my fuzz and have to stop myself using to frequently and using my other overdrives or distortions, but yep I definitely think I was missing out not using fuzz before as I find it really creative now, I think learning about the history more from Josh has really taught me much more about it and how and how to use it musically and not just thinking it was an over the top effect. Thanks to Josh and also yourself Rhett for providing me with much more knowledge and being able to making a much more informed decision. Thanks Steve

      He hates Germanium Transistors a lot, they're difficult to find, they're not abailable, that's the reazon he tells the people "don't say germanium is better" getting silicon transistors is easy and it coast around $0.15 each. The Smiley(fuzzface) uses 2, the other Bender uses 3, but a set of three germanium transistors for that pedal may cost $30! So, when Josh says "don't buy it only because it uses germanium" he is hating the pedal makers that use germanium transistors because they sound great, everybody from 40 to 60 knows this perfectly.

      Taste all vintage pedals with the correct germanium design stuff, you will appreciate the guitar's volume cleans up a lot.

I don't recommend de JHS silicon versions. Regards

    That Mark I pedal is the SHIT! Seriously. Watching you over the past couple of years has DEFINITELY has help put gas on my Fuzz obsession fire. I just bought the Jesse Davies, King Tone Mini Fuzz Ge, which I must say is the BOMB! So, my Fuzz budget is blown for a while, but the Supreme will be mine SOON! Sounded so good with your Nova, damn!
    Going to watch this post again, cause the jams were so sweet with Honey dripping FUZZ!!!!!!!

    Josh already came out with his MkIII Tone Bender couple of times. First the right side of the pedal Bunrunner then his Firefly Fuzz. AFAIK. Great video by the way, thanks Rhett.

    I think they all sound amazing, and each one is different enough from each other.

    my dad brought me a silver/grey Sola Sound Tone Bender from London, early 70's, when living in South Africa. It go lost in time but I recall loving it... everybody wanted one, I had it :)

    Knobs should really have a ramped indicator painted around them.
