Home Gear Yardbox™


The Yardbox™.  A faithful sonic copy of the original Sola Sound Tonebender, purportedly the only distortion pedal used on Led Zeppelin's first two albums. The pedal has no similarity to Jumbo, Supa, or the Vox Tonebender. Wide variation in tone and smooth dynamics at all volumes.


"The Yard wreaks its sonic havoc with volume, fuzz, and treble/bass knobs, and its guts are housed in s small, rugged cast-aluminum enclosure...  The Yarbox is an immediately satisfying little stomper.  Its thick, fat-toned fuzz is delightfully sweet 'n' nasty, and the circuit clarity really preserves the character of your guitar...  The device has more than enough output, its single tone knob is simple and effective, and like the Experience, the Yard's dynamics allow rythym-approved fuzz at lower guitar-volume settings...  The Yard sounds warmer and less raspy than Benders I've tried, and it's way different enough from the Experience to warrant its own parking spot on your pedalboard." - Art Thompson of Guitar Player Magazine
"The sound is pure retro heaven." - Guitar World Magazine

"...and this thing called the Yardbox, which is pretty nice.  I think it's a copy of the old Tone Bender.  It's got Yardbirds-style lettering on it." - Eric Johnson

"It sounds amazing! There is room for this product besides all the ultra-high end clones. This pedal is built by people who know how to tune their pedals. I am so impressed with the raw sounds." - Blender (Harmony Central)

"Sounds awesome. Seriously, I went into the shop to try out the fuzz factory and even tried a vodoo lab and something else I don't remember now, and ended leaving with the yardbox." - Mike Gonzales (Harmony Central)
"The "Yardbox" has the best finish I have ever seen on a stomp box.  It also has the best tone I've ever heard from a stomp box." - Brian Lane (Harmony Central)

"I can't live without this now, and as soon as I get some extra money, I'm going to buy a couple of backups (just in case)" - Mark Bram (Harmony Central)

"I chose the Yardbox over the Fulltone, MJM, or vintage equivalent because of the cost, and I don't regret my choice. It does exactly what I want it to, and that suits me just fine." Anonymous (Harmony Central)
