The Stonk Box from Benson Amps is a fascinating fuzz pedal with a unique approach to recreating classic 1960s fuzz tones. The transistors used in traditional fuzz pedals are sensitive to changes in temperature, and there can be great inconsistencies in tone. Using Automatic Thermal Bias technology to regulate the temperature, the Stonk Box ensures consistent performance by gently warming its Germanium transistors. This helps maintain optimal sound, regardless of external temperatures.
Featuring controls for TRIM, FILTER, TONE, and VOLUME, the Stonk Box offers a broad range of sonic possibilities. It produces everything from aggressive distortion to milder, dynamically responsive fuzz. Built to push the boundaries of fuzz, the Stonk Box captures the chaotic character that makes fuzz so much fun, but it also provides a more modern, user-friendly experience.
This 2023 Benson Stonk Box is gently used. It shows some minor signs of play and use, but it's about as clean as you could want from a used pedal. It functions 100% as it should and sounds fantastic. It includes its original box.
