Description
The Benson Amps Storkn Boks fuzz pedal is a wildly innovative sonic powerhouse designed in collaboration with legendary experimental guitarist David Torn. Building on the foundation of the iconic Stonk Box, this model takes everything that made the original special and adds several new features. If you've been searching for a gritty, primal fuzz pedal inspired by the classic MK1 Tone Bender but with its own unique sound, you need to try this rip-roaring stompbox.
One of the most notable updates to the Storkn Boks is the variable bass control, developed to meet Torn's request for more low-end. Now, users can switch between the thinner, brighter timbre of the Stonk Box to a deeper, richer sound that's suited for bass and drop-tuned guitars. What really sets this pedal apart, though, is its positive feedback switch, which allows users to create synth-like filter effects, subharmonic tones, and otherworldly oscillations with the push of a button. Warning: this feature is not for the faint of heart... explore at your own risk!
Benson Amps continues to utilize its automatic thermal bias technology in the Storkn Boks to ensure a consistent sound no matter the environment. The pedal's circuit gently warms the Germanium transistors to the optimal operating point, and the LED indicator will shift from amber to green once they're properly warmed. You can trust the Storkn Boks to deliver incredible fuzz, whether you're playing in freezing temperatures or scorching heat.
This guitar pedal retains the same user-friendly controls that made the Stonk Box so intuitive, including VOLUME and FILTER knobs to shape your fuzz tone. The TRIM knob lets you adjust the input gain for taming or ramping up your fuzz, while the TONE control uses a low-pass filter to balance brightness and bass.
The Benson Amps Storkn Boks is a must-have for sonic risk-takers. This pedal isn't just an effect; it's a gateway to raw, untamed fuzz that snarls, crushes, and explodes with chaotic energy. From thick, '70s-inspired saturation to brutal, experimental soundscapes, this beast delivers seismic, ferocious tones that will obliterate anything in their path.
