BLAMMO! Electronics Tomb Sender Pedal
The Tomb Sender from BLAMMO! Electronics is a “new-meets-old” take on the classic and beloved Sola Sound Tone Bender Mkiii. Hand-selected new-old-stock NPN germanium transistors, carbon composition resistors, and accurate component values keep the heart of the Tomb Sender true, while an updated relay-based true bypass switching system, added make-up gain stage for more output and beefed-up power filtering section offer less hiss and hum plus modern usability.
BLAMMO! Electronics Tomb Sender Pedal Review
Four potentiometers and one toggle switch hold sway over the Tomb Sender. Let’s go over what they are and what they can do for you.
The Volume control works the way you would expect but offers more output, so your signal won’t dip below unity gain on the skronkier settings. The Bias knob controls the voltage level of the second germanium transistor and offers zippy, Velcro-like splattery and gated wonkiness when setting the lowest and does the familiar Tone Bender mkiii sounds when turned all the way up. The Attack controls the fuzz gain, offering more bite and compression when set on high with a more open and raw tone when dialed left. The Tone control isn’t your standard “set it and forget it / one sound” type of knob. Useable throughout its entire sweep, it offers more bass frequencies without cutting the highs when turned left and more highs with some bass cut when knobbed to the right. The toggle switch operates a simple noise gate that cuts a good portion of the background noise/muck between notes but also works well with the Bias knob to finely tune the broken and dying battery sounds the Tomb Sender has to offer.
