This listing is for a brand new pedal. Professor Nigel's is an authorized Electro-Harmonix dealer.

Professor’s Notes

The Bender Royale brings together three legendary Tone Bender-style circuits in one all-analog pedal, capturing the snarling mids, spitty grit, and sustaining fuzz that shaped rock history. It’s a versatile, value-oriented alternative to fragile vintage originals and boutique recreations that often come at boutique prices.

Description

The Electro-Harmonix Bender Royale is a compact fuzz pedal that delivers the essential tones of three different Tone Bender circuits:

• Mk I.5: Raw, spitty textures with vintage grit.
• Mk II: The fat, sustaining fuzz tones of late ’60s/early ’70s rock.
• Mk III: Richer, heavier fuzz with added Tone control for shaping.

A 3-way switch makes it simple to jump between voices, while controls for Volume, Attack, and Tone (active in Mk III mode) keep operation straightforward.

Where vintage Tone Benders are scarce, expensive, and often temperamental, the Bender Royale delivers the same sonic DNA with modern reliability, true bypass switching, and standard 9V operation. Compact and rugged, it gives you three eras of fuzz history in one box, making it a powerful and cost-effective tool for players chasing authentic British fuzz tones.
