Thorpy FX Veteran Si Boost/Fuzz Pedal
Brand New
Brand New
As the third Pedal in the "Vintage Reimagined" Series ThorpyFX presents the Veteran (Silicon) NATO Edition. This is a combined Pedal offering you our take on the very best versions of the Sixties silicon Fuzz (Think Smiley) and Rangemaster style silicon treble booster in one pedal. Sonically we have made this pedal identical to vintage units however the Veteran (Si) is quieter and much more flexible than the original units.
There are two independent foot-switches to control each side. The fuzz is first and it runs into the Treble/mids/Bass booster. There are six knobs split between two effects. The Fuzz side has controls for Fuzz, Volume, Smooth and Bias. Smooth controls the input impedance to the circuit and gives you a less bass heavy, smoother fuzz. Bias controls the overall "heat"available to the circuit, increasing output volume on tap and the amount of mids in the circuit.
The Boost side has controls for Boost, and Range, allowing you to choose what frequencies to boost, from Bass heavy through mids focussed to treble. Combining the two effects gives you absolute tonal armageddon, but still provides a musical and tweakable effect. To ensure that the pedal is useful to use on your pedalboard the width has increased to approx 105mm to allow for the two footswitches. I have designed the pedal to work using a standard 9V centre negative power supply so you will be able to use the pedal on your pedalboard.
This is the V2 version, sonically identical to the V1 version, only smaller and can only be powered via 9V power supply.
Size: (W)100mm x(L)125mm x(H)53mm.
Current draw: 20mA

We're right off the CTA Brown Line 'Paulina' Stop Just North of Belmont and just West of Ashland.
We’re all musicians here at Chicago Music Exchange and we want you to love the gear you get from us. We understand that sometimes you get a piece of gear that doesn’t work out for you. That’s why we offer an easy return policy to take the stress out of purchasing from us.
If you decide you'd like to return an item, please contact your Sales Rep, chat us, or give us a call.
If you placed your order on Amazon or eBay, we advise issuing the return request from your account on the platform of purchase - our Customer Service team will process a refund upon receipt of the item(s).
Most new items may be returned within 30 days of delivery and most vintage & used items may be returned within 3 days of delivery for a full refund, exchange, or store credit. Please pack the product safely for the journey back to us. If the product was shipped for free, the charge will be deducted from refund, unless the reason for the return is outside normal circumstances.
Please contact us as soon as possible if your order was received incorrectly, damaged, or defective. Most times we will give you an RA number (Return Authorization). Why is that number important? This will allow us to speed up the process of the return.
We reserve the right to charge a restocking fee based on the return condition. Some items we just can’t take back for returns, due to a one time function like strings or drums heads and other times it’s not sanitary to do so with microphones or harmonicas. If you aren’t sure if what you bought falls into a category like this, call us (773) 525-7773!
We strive to get your return processed quickly. Most of the time we have it done within two business days. Funds going back to credit cards usually takes two to four business days. CME strives to make sure all customers are happy with their experience. It is our priority to provide great service along with great gear. We always want to be helpful, and open to your feedback. Please let us know your thoughts! If you have any questions, we’re here for you!
