OVERDRIVE- ThorpyFX The Dane MkII ___ NEW ___ small size, big sound, Large $


$290.00 USD
ThorpyFX The Dane MkII
Andertons Store's Danish Pete Honore's signature pedal. A low gain transparent OD with a boost. Version one is 5 years old. It was primarily designed to specifically work with a Tele. It has superb touch sensitive dynamics.
The layout is Level, Boost, Gain, Tone, Bass and a toggle with a second 
higher gain boost.
CONCLUSION
The size is very welcomed and the new graphics have dropped 
the confusing and obtuse lettering and graphics. You can get 
a great wonderful chunky and punchy sound. Great for
chord work and flatpicking. Sustain is all but nonexistent.

the fine print
It is probably the best low gain to a light medium gain pedal made. It is a neutral as vanilla ice cream ...nothing to perhaps love but musically it fits into any tune in any style without being a problem of being to much or too little gain.  In other words it does not bring your attention to itself. All other transparent pedals either are a prefect fit for a genre with narrow range of anything outside of that genre and/or you use it and love with its But it doesn't and But it is too issues. 
I think Thorpy pedals are designed not around what the guy loves than what the guy totally hates. They simply have no character, like a beautiful day but the sun  casts too many shadows. There are no shadows in a Thorpy. A session players dream 🙉
