Very nice! There are so many tonebender variants out there, it would be near-impossible to find a clear winner. But for the money I hear good things about that particular Fulltone unit. Enjoy!

Nice score.
Congrats.

I have both the '69 and the '70. The '69 is a nice fairly faithful traditional fuzz tone but you need a special adapter to run it on a wall-wart as it is wired backwards for power. I've never really understood that. It seems to me all Fulltone would have to do would be to solder up the jack with opposite wires but whatever, the pedal works fine and sounds great. The '70 is a different animal. When you crank it up it really snarls. It requires a player to excercise more control over how he (or she) touches the guitar particularly at gig volume levels because things can get ugly real quick if you're sloppy but if you have mastery over which strings are ringing you can get some truly Rock-God tones out of it.

Just think of how awesome a guitar player you could have been by now if you had only spent the last 10 years practicing instead of obsessing over pickups and roasted maple necks.
