Fender Blender - Clone

Iphone camera's makes everything ugly.
This is part 3 of “recycling enclosures.” It used to be a Box of Rock, now it’s a Fender Blender. The reviews of this pedal call it: “the fuzz pedal with Indie-cred,” so, like the crappy teenage hipster I am, I needed one.
It’s an octave up fuzz with an extra switch that kind of boosts your signal and turns the tone knob to zero. It’s weird and great.
It’s like a box full of “The Jesus And Mary Chain” fuzzy guitar sounds (even though they used a Shin Ei FuzzWah, but didn’t use the wah part of the pedal, only the fuzz....so did they use a Companion Fuzz? The schematics says no, there are more components in the fuzz segment of the FuzzWah than in a Companion. The schematic of the fuzz segment has many similarities with the Fender Blender, but the guitarnerds forums says that the Fender Blender is a bad sound pedal, then you read that they are talking about the reissue Fender did with the Blender a couple of years ago. After reading many comments on the forums you come to a conclusion that you need the original fender blender, who’s worth a fortune....so you build your own Fender Blender and ignore the forums or anyone’s opinion)
