Benson Amps

Benson’s Tall Bird Plus is the company’s flagship all-tube spring reverb and optical tremolo unit—an entirely original design aimed at capturing the timeless sounds of the 1960s with modern improvements in functionality and noise performance.

The Germanium Fuzz is a fuzz pedal. The knobs change the sounds.

The STÖRKN B0kš is a modified/augmented version of our Stonk Box pedal, created in collaboration with the main inspiration of the Stonk Box, the legendary guitarist and composer David Torn.

Drawing inspiration from Benson's history in tape and bucket brigade echo servicing, their design goal was to create floaty and colorful repeats with a chaotic yet musical degradation. That’s the heart of the thing, the whole point.

An alternate universe take on our flagship pedal that marries the incomparable feel of the germanium with the careful equalization and tone controls of the preamp pedal.

“When Benson first asked me what I wanted out of a pedal, I asked if he could smash together my favorite fuzz tones and vintage echos."

The circuit is based on the Chimera 30 watt guitar amplifier, but substitutes FET transistors for the vacuum tubes
