Bensåg Pedal

Bensåg (Bone Saw) is a Rotvälta Machines collaboration with ceramicist Olivier. Swedish chainsaw hardly needs an explanation, built to shred your signal. What started as an inquiry of a HM-2 clone resulted in Bensåg. Hand built with Soviet Germanium diodes and quality components, complete with artwork by the artist Olivier Maximilian. 
 
9V center negative DC power supply.
 
LEVEL The upper knob adjusts the output volume of the pedal.
 
DISTORTION The lower knob lets you go from a subtle churning grit to a full chainsaw wall of sound. Dime it to achieve the brutal roaring tone with uncontrollable feedback, which made this circuit famous.
 
HIGH & LOW The tonestack is internally accessible via trimpots on the circuit board labeled High and Low. If you for some reason wish to tinker with these, unplug the pedal and open the back plate with a screwdriver. Use the same screwdriver to adjust the trimpots. Factory default is, of course: DIMED.
