The Thorpy FX Boneyard Germanium Fuzz is the company’s ode to the classic Tone Bender. Its stated goal is to encompass the full range and history of this classic fuzz circuit in one compact, pedalboard-friendly, and bombproof enclosure. The Boneyard accomplishes this goal with a simple, intuitive set of controls, including a toggle switch for selecting between 2-transistor and 3-transistor topologies, a bias knob for dialing in those gated, spitty tones, and one very versatile tone control. Further rounding out the feature set is a tone control bypass footswitch, which instantly disables the tone circuit for extra volume and a raw, wild character. With this elegant layout, The Boneyard nails down the full spectrum of Bender tones from the 60s to the present day. In this demo video, we put it through its paces with both bass and guitar in a swinging garage rock context, covering everything from droning melodic passages, to gut-rumbling basslines, and wooly proto-punk riffage. Then we get down to business, digging deep into The Boneyard’s lush garden of Tone Bender sounds to let you hear what this beast is truly capable of.
