New ThorpyFX pedal, "The Dane" Danish Pete's Signature pedal

ThorpyFX · August 2018

So we've been sitting on this for a very long time... I've bene desperate to tell people about it but... it had to remain on the down low.

This is the first pedal I've made that wasn't designed to suit me, I've never done a signature pedal before and it was both a privilege and a tough thing to do... basically designing something to meet such an amazing players needs is a professional challenge.

However I'm so glad I took up the challenge, its proven to be so rewarding and the end product is a truly new, individual and astonishingly capable pedal despite such a clean and simple look.

Pete Honore was an absolute pleasure to work with, his work ethic is just astonishing. We had some very log days during the development of this pedal and none of them were anything other than a pleasure.

As for the pedal:

It is a super high headroom boost with loads of output and control over the low end, this really fattens up a telecaster or stratocaster. The drive was designed to be the most dynamic and pick repose drive available, again the tone control has such breadth that it can work so well to thicken or thin out your guitar, no matter if you use humbuckers or singlecoils

I want one just because it’s purple.

Love the colour.

@ThorpyFX does it have much gain on tap?

Jimbro66 · August 2018

Brilliant work Thorpy. Take a bow

plenty for bluesy rock styles. actually with both sides on, it gets plenty saturated. its designed to really respond to your playing and volume control. it had to be that way to meet petes needs

Cool, very interested in this - how much mid-push does it have Thorpy?

enough to cut through, but not so much that its honky or weird.

Never heard of this guy, can you recommend an album he's played on?

Pedal looks nice in the purple.

Pedal looks nice in the purple.

have a look at this video, it explains his musical past- all his touring history with tom jones, west life, the factor etc etc....

that and he is the driving force behind all of Andertons video output...

That is one braw sounding box on the videos and is right up my street on all the usual Thorpy levels. Nice one Gents!

hotpickups · September 2018

Oh no no more room on my pedal board - disaster

IvisonGuitars · September 2018

Well, I don't do pedals but this might just change that....sounds Fantastic! Nice one @ThorpyFX

RiftAmps · September 2018

I have been extremely lucky to have played through both the yellow prototype and the final version of The Dane. It’s an exceptional pedal and is one of those rare pieces of gear that just makes you want to play guitar more and more. It’s an addictive bugger for sure!

Congrats Adrian, it’s a winner.

PhilKing · September 2018

Just placed my order. This is just what I need on my small board.

tone1 · September 2018

Nice one Adrian... if it's half as much fun to play as the Veteran, then count me in

ennspek · September 2018

Made by Adrian, Played by Pete? Ordered. Will watch the videos later!

mattdavis · September 2018

I’m placing an order for this one. Can’t think of a pedal builder or a you tube guitar person ( can’t bring myself to say youtuber- doh!) that I’d rather support. If it’s half as good as the video suggests, it should be awesome. Nice one @ThorpyFX ;

Ordered! I'm sure it will be amazing, especially if it gives me the ability to play like Pete ;-)

JonHosker · September 2018
