Welcome to ZVEX Mod Bench +
This is where we will offer unique pedals modded at HQ, made from odds-n-ends parts, and/or other characteristics that set them apart from standard stock.
Cube Fuzz Factory feat. Mark II transistors:
We had two black and two white sample enclosures with uv printed “Cube” graphics we’d been saving for something, so we drilled ‘em out. Why? Because we recently came upon a small stash of the “Mark II” transistors. We call them “Mark II” because these are the cylindrical PNP germanium semiconductors used in mid-to-late ‘90s Fuzz Factory pedals after we ran out of the original “Spam Cans” but before we switched to 2N404 for q2/q3. We occasionally have one of these vintage beauties roll through for repair and we always marvel at the transistors. Glad we found some more. Anyway, this is a cool little piece of ZVEX history for a few collectors. We only made four pedals in this batch.
