Reviews
"Two Brit voices with superlative sound in one box.” Guitarist magazine - Guitarist Choice award winner!
"A sweet and very versatile overdrive channel that you might never switch off. Its dynamic responsiveness to guitar volume attenuation is impressive, and Bigfoot’s brilliant knack for voicing a circuit means you don’t miss the extra tone controls. It’s deliciously wide ranging, running from clean boost and low gain overdrive shades that strike a rare balance between transparency and coloration, to organically crunchy and clear sounds at higher gain settings. A lovely and powerful slice of Marshall-in-a-box." Premier Guitar magazine - Premier Gear award winner!
"This pedal is absolutely a Brit stack and a combo in one box. Great concept/awesome pedal." Guitar Player magazine
"It's pretty great at adding a 'crunch channel' to just about anything." The Guitar Magazine
"That is a righteous noise- that really does sound exceptional!" Daniel Steinhardt (That Pedal Show / The GigRig)
“Rich’s favourite pedal. Finally got it into the rack and Rich loves it!” Rich Robinson (The Black Crowes)

£159.99
Our mini guitar overdrive pedal.
Overview
The Bigfoot Thunder Pup Mini is a medium gain guitar pedal for classic British overdrive tones.
Sound
This pedal utilises the Big Amp mode from our larger model. It is inspired by the tones of Angus Young (AC/DC) and captures the classic Marshall Plexi 4x12 stack sound. It is a medium gain overdrive with excellent midrange cut-through, powerful lows, and a gentle bite in the highs.

Bigfoot Thunder Pup
£159.99
Our flagship guitar overdrive pedal.
Overview
The Bigfoot Thunder Pup is a low/medium gain guitar pedal that covers classic British overdrive tones.
Sound
The Thunder Pup has 2 settings: the Big Amp mode is inspired by the tones of Angus Young (AC/DC) and captures the classic Marshall Plexi 4x12 stack sound. It has a little more gain, a stronger lower-midrange punch, and powerful low frequency response. The Little Amp mode has a faster attack in the lows, cleaner mids, and more air in the highs like a vintage open back 2x12 combo, such as the Vox AC30 or the Marshall Bluesbreaker.
