Re: JHS ZONK II
I have on of those (Zonk II).
I bought it back in the 70s from a local shop.
It was a great pedal for a unique "Spirit in the Sky"-type fuzz, but it has quit working.
I was told it's a transistor, but have no cl;ue how to fix it or test it.
Any suggestions?

Re: JHS ZONK II
Where are you based?
I’m sure there will be a builder who could get that sorted

Re: JHS ZONK II
2N4061 transistors are still easily available in the UK (I have some that are the same make as the ones seen in Graham's pics that i got many years ago ).
It would be fairly easy for anyone with a bit of knowledge to check and replace one, but it might be more likely one of the capacitors has failed than one of the transistors...
