British Pedal Company Vintage Series Zonk Machine Mk I Authentic Fuzz Guitar Pedal

BPC Zonk Machine MKI

This pedal is a detailed replica of the original John Hornby Skewes Zonk Machine MKI pedal produced in Leeds England in 1965 – 1966. The Zonk Machine is similar to the original Gary Hurst MK I Tone Bender that uses a 3 Transistor circuit. Based on limited production originals are exceptionally scarce and we all just love the FUNKY GRAPHICS.

Transistor Guide

OC75: Bright and high gain, snappy in tone, sounds raspy in a 3 transistor circuit such as the MKI.5
OC81D: Smooth gain lots of saturation
2G381: This is what gives the MKI its sag when you bend a note. They are key to the MKIs Tone.
OC44: Bright and Driven Tone
OC71: More Shrill and Glassy then an OC44
ACY41: Bright, Raspy, and in your face (ideal for fuzz)
2n4061: Silicon-based, used in the Shatterbox for crazy amounts of thick fuzz
