Our deluxe guitar overdrive pedal.


Overview

The Bigfoot Thunder Pup XL is a low/medium gain guitar pedal for classic British overdrive tones with a foot-switchable clean boost.


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. The foot-switchable clean boost provides 16dB of additional gain, which is perfect for lifting your guitar solos with more fatness, sustain, and volume.


Features

This pedal does not feature any EQ controls because the tone has been meticulously crafted to provide the perfect sweet spot every time. The character of any guitar will always shine through, retaining every nuance of your playing dynamics and reacting flawlessly to your guitar's volume controls. The addition of a clean boost makes this in incredibly versatile stompbox.


Applications
