The Dane we all know and love just turned 5. Five years of great tone and five years of an awesome partnership with Danish Pete.

A crisp new look with a smaller, black anodised aluminium enclosure and a bonus new feature. The Dane still has the two sides for Drive and Boost, only it now has the option to switch the Boost from the standard DP (Danish Pete) clipping to Heavier Clipping (HC), similar to the second channel of the Heavy Water, just to give you that bit of extra grit should you want it.

Controls

  • Boost – This controls the volume of the boost and how hard it will drive the Overdrive channel which is next in the signal chain.
  • Lows – These will fatten up the low-end of your guitar. Particularly good for making Single Coils sound fatter than before.
  • Tone – This controls the overall EQ output of the pedal.
  • Volume – This controls the volume of the drive.
  • Drive – This controls the gain you'll get from the pedal. If you keep the gain down and volume up, you'll have more headroom. If you keep the volume down and the gain up, you'll have more dirt! Set it to taste.

Reviews set before September 2023 are for the previous version of the pedal.

Boost Pedals

Boost pedals raise signal level, add gain, or do both. A clean boost leaves most of the source voice alone and pushes the next stage harder; a coloured boost changes the frequency balance as it lifts the level, while a treble or mid boost can deliberately narrow the emphasis. Gain, output, tone, presence and headroom determine whether the pedal works as an always-on preamp or a solo lift. Placement matters: before an overdrive it increases clipping, after it mainly increases level, and into a clean amp it may simply make the rig louder.
