VINTAGE FUZZ TONE

The Maestro FZ-1 started the Great British Fuzz Pedal Boom by inspiring Gary Hurst to modify Vic Flick’s (the James Bond Riff guitarist) personal pedal into the Tone Bender, which was later taken by John Hornby Skewes and further tweaked into the Zonk Machine: the third-times-a-charmer of the era. Known for its spitting / slightly gated sound, the Zonk is brighter than a Tone Bender mki but has more sustain and bite than the FZ-1 making it well suited for cutting through a dark mix. So what does a pedal builder do with a sound that’s already pretty much perfect? Well, not much, but adding a bit of flexibility and functionality is always a good idea, so we did that.

Basically, the Skronk Machine is a modernized version of the Zonk.

We updated the footswitch to a no-click relay bypass system that is either momentary or latching, depending on whether you tap or hold it down. It also remembers the last state (on/off position) before powering down which can be helpful for people with large effect racks. The NOS germanium transistors we chose are NPN rather than PNP to make powering and daisy chaining power supplies a bit more convenient.  Each set of tested transistors are specifically biased for each build and tested through two voltage check points on the PCB to help ensure the sound stays consistent. The standard circuit can be a bit bright through certain setups, so we added a finely tuned passive tone control that cuts some of the high frequency harshness without losing much volume. Dialed to the far right the filter has no effect and offers the stock Zonk voicing while counter clockwise will cut highs and get you into Tone Bender mki territory. Both extremes of the dial sound totally usable. We also slimmed down the enclosure to the industry standard and hooked up top mounted jacks to make it more pedalboard friendly, but that’s it, so the heart of the Skronk remains true! The upgrades just help keep the blood pumping more efficiently.

    The Chuck Norris of Dog Toys
    Color: Orange
    If dog toys were superheroes, the Nevperish K9 Training Ball would be Batman—indestructible, effective, and always ready to save the day. This thing flies. I’m not saying I could take out a rogue squirrel in a single throw, but… let’s just say those little guys know to keep their distance now. My 100lb German Shepherd, who we affectionately call "The Toy Terminator," has destroyed every squeaky, chewy, or bouncy thing in her path. But this? This glorious, rope-swinging masterpiece? She’s met her match. It’s like her teeth have signed a peace treaty with this toy. Speaking of flying, if you have neighbors with a backyard that’s less than a football field away, be prepared for some fence-hopping cardio. I’ve had more awkward encounters with my neighbors than I care to admit. Thankfully, my shepherd has learned the art of the double hop—over their fence and back—like some four-legged ninja gymnast. Bonus: great entertainment for the neighbors. This toy isn’t just a ball on a rope; it’s a lifestyle. Open fields? Perfect. Tug-of-war? Immaculate. Backyard fetch? A cinematic masterpiece. It’s basically the Swiss Army knife of dog toys, minus the danger of accidental stabbing. Pro tip: Don’t underestimate how far this thing can go. My first throw ended with the ball in orbit—or maybe it just bounced off a satellite. Either way, my dog was thrilled, and now I need an arm warm-up routine before playtime. So, if you want a toy that’ll outlast your dog’s dental fury and make fetch sessions the stuff of legend, this is it. 10/10, would absolutely get weird looks from neighbors again.

    One Tough Ball!
    Color: Blue
    Our dogs are loving this ball. Our 1 yr old hound is a world-class chewer and he can't make a dent in this ball. The interactive buzzing and bouncing keeps them entertained for long durations. It's a mite noisy but the barking from the 1 yr old is much louder, lol. Even turned off, they like playing with it and chewing on it. Based on the tough construction, we think it will last much longer than traditional chew balls.
