Description

Edit description

KUDU is an overdrive that has a funny little story behind it. Dan Coggins, who you’ll know of Lovetone fame, designs pedals for ThorpyFx, but musical instruments and their associated gear remains to this day as a hobby for Thorpy. Well, knowing this, on Christmas 2024 Dan gifted Thorpy a modified pedal, which as always, sparks an idea for a new product. So, we took inspiration for this modified classic and created a pedal optimised for stacking with other pedals and amps. Why is it called KUDU? Well, there is a variant of the KUDU called the Greater Kudu and as the pedal makes everything sound better… it seemed apt.

While this pedal sounds great as a mid-gain drive, where it really thrives is as a gain stacker. Whether that be your amp, or other pedals. It has a clipping switch with three modes enabling you to get the very best from your sound.

To ensure consistency, reliability, low noise and tonal supremacy the KUDU is made with extremely high quality components. 1% metal film resistors, WIMA and Panasonic capacitors where possible and robust through hole gold plated PCB’S. In short, all of this means you won’t have to worry about your pedal and it should give you many years of inspiring tonal bliss.

New Pedal: ThorpyFX Kudu Overdrive | Delicious Audio

delicious-audio.com

ThorpyFX's The KUDU Overdrive pedal is a tonal powerhouse that defies its bold claims by genuinely enhancing sound. With three rich clipping modes—ranging from classic compression to an "extraordinary" Germanium-like touch—the KUDU offers versatility that few can match. Its Bite control isn't just another tone knob; it dynamically interacts with your gear, making it perfect for stacking. While its $250 price tag might seem steep, the KUDU's ability to breathe life into any setup makes it a worthy investment for serious tone chasers. ThorpyFX has crafted yet another keeper in the crowded overdrive market.
