CLASSIC ROCK-TONE
One-Man electronics company.
My understanding of industrial electronics and passion for guitar and effects pedals have lead me to pursue and achieve new approaches to creating exciting all-analog circuits which deliver both the familiar sounds we all love as well as new circuits which offer a broader palate of tones. The main goals of the Rhodium Electronics pedals are reducing SNR (signal to noise ratio) by means of PCB layout, selection of audio grade electronics and wiring configuration whilst simultaneously improving dynamic response, bandwidth and output level of the circuits, a versatile impedance matching for the classic standard electric guitars as an important factor of the design, all designed to Hi-Fi standard.
Rhodium Electronics certifies every handmade built individually, keeping records of the corresponding effects serial number and year of manufacture, the protection of these details are under a company registration book. Offering lifetime warranty and technical support for all Rhodium Electronics and TanqueLab effects pedals. Our stock of vintage parts are all brand new NOS (New Old Stock) electronics components.
Today, our whole series of effects pedals are available in the physical shop, glad and honored, our collection is selling exclusively in the best guitar shop in the Borough of London, UK.

DANDY TREBLE-BOOST
RHODIUM ELECTRONICS ARB64 TREBLE BOOSTER
Dandy Boost Treble booster ARB64, a silicon boost based on the classic original Maestro Rangemaster treble booster. Setup with audio grade electronics and selected National Semiconductor BC167B silicon transistor, following a vintage True Bypass specification. Iconic vintage circuit used by Rory Gallagher, Jeff Beck, Brian May, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Billy Gibbons...
TheXperience
RHODIUM ELECTRONICS ARF66 MKI.5 FUZZ :)
ARF66 Germanium Fuzz is a take on the classic Fuzz-Face, a circuit originally designed by Gary Stewart Hurst in London, developed during the sixties and seventies by a diversity of engineers as Roger Mayer or Cesar Diaz, creating a classic guitar distortion used by Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan and Jeff Beck between many other guitar players... TheXperience have been built in prefabricated electronics PCB and professionally assembled with vintage Texas Instruments 2N527 germanium transistors (military grade/golden pins) and biased at a stable 20*C degrees room temperature with a nominal voltage.
ARA67 ASTRO
RHODIUM ELECTRONICS ARF67 ASTRO-TONE
ARA67 is a version of the Astrotone 1967 silicon fuzz Sam-Ash circuit, popularised by Leslie West and Tommy Bolin. This design follows a vintage specification as per original circuit, with a selection of audio grade electronics and a selected pair of mid seventies silicon 2N3566 transistors.
TONIBENDER MKIV.3
RHODIUM ELECTRONICS ARF68 TONE-BENDER MKIII MKIV GERMANIUM
The new ARF68 (following the previous ARF-72 fuzz series) is a take on the classic Tone-Bender MKIII with added mods, including an internal pre-set trimmer to dial the required output gain. Changes in the trimmer setting wouldn´t modify the biasing point, but alter the final EQ of the pedal to take you to the MKI and F-1 Maestro Fuzz Tone territories and beyond. Selected setup with NOS factory marking British Made 60's Mullard OC71 germanium transistors.
GRANDTONE
RHODIUM ELECTRONICS ARO70W ONE TRANSISTOR SILICON FUZZ
ARO70W Fuzz is a single silicon transistor design. An early fuzz / overdrive circuit that can be used as a preamp or dirt boost, in order to achieve a low gain fuzz distortion range or as a second pedal in the chain, a dialling preamp from cutting signal to overdrive to fuzz saturation. Been setup with BC108B military grade golden pin silicon transistors and following a vintage true bypass configuration.
CAMDEN STONER
RHODIUM ELECTRONICS ARF71 ONE-KNOB FUZZ
One Knob Fuzz take on legendary Colorsound Wah Fuzz Swell — fuzz part of the circuit setup with selected pair of BC167B vintage National Semiconductor silicon transistors, same family of early 70´s transistors found in the original Colorsound Wah-Fuzz-Swell pedals. Setting audio grade capacitors and following a vintage true bypass configuration.
KNOCK-OFF UNITS OF DRIVESTORTION
TANQUELAB DRIVESTORTION
Drivestortion offers Underdrive, Boost, Overdrive and Distortion. Drivestortion allows slightly higher voltages. This unit works from 9 to 18 Volts with DC negative centre connector. There may be cosmetic imperfections, machining marks, minor scuffs, or scratches in the paint finish as expected for a hand built pedal. Please, check pictures for condition.
Comes in custom aluminium flight-case with certificate and specifications.

ROCK ROYALTY
ALAIN JOHANNES
Thanks to my friends Adrian Palacios e Ina Ramírez (behind the scenes) who took the time to create this epic moment for Rhodium Electronics, for being so beautiful people, for collecting the pedal from Pancake Recording Studios in Dos Hermanas, and sending this picture with Alain Johannes, receiving our ARF66 Fuzz in Sputnik studios in Seville, it’s so very cool!
In 2024, Rhodium Electronics attended for third year in a row to the London International Guitar Show organized by Northern Guitar Shows in the Kempton Park Racecourse Exhibition Centre.
KEEP GUITAR PLAYING!
