If you're a fan of high gain crushing American style distortion but also want a pedal that can be easily tamed, you need the Thorpy FX Warthog. Named after certain pieces of American military hardware, this pedal is strong, aggressive and built like an absolute tank.
ThorpyFX went back to the drawing board and redesigned the pedal to have a smaller footprint so it fits neatly on a Pedaltrain board.
Sound
You can get a smooth clean boost or light crunch at lower EQ settings, but this pedal is at its best when cranked. The Warthog produces a lovely American warm midrange and low end that fill up the mix of any band even when maxing out the gain. At these high gain points you get crushing distortion mixed in with fuzz like overtones.
Premium components
ThorpyFX pedals are built to last. The unique recessed look protects the dials from breakage and the dangers of touring. Its metal casing ensures the delicate circuit is well housed.
Only the very best electronics have gone into building ThorpyFX pedals. 1% metalfilm resistors, Wima and Panasonic capacitors, Neutrik jacks and a Burr-Brown Opamp deliver a crisp effect.
