The Heavy Water by ThorpyFX is a dual high headroom boost pedal designed to meet the demand for a standalone version of the boost side of the DANE pedal. It features two boost circuits in one compact enclosure, offering versatility and flexibility for guitarists. The right-hand side of the pedal provides a high headroom, super clean boost, while the left-hand side offers a grittier and dirtier character with the inclusion of Germanium diodes in the circuit.
The pedal is designed to allow each side to be used independently, but they can also be combined to deliver a powerful boost that can drive the front end of a valve amp into submission. The Heavy Water provides a wide range of options, from subtle to heavy, catering to various playing styles and musical preferences.
Key features of the Heavy Water include:
- Two independent boost circuits in one enclosure
- High headroom, super clean boost on the right-hand side
- Grittier and dirtier boost with Germanium diodes on the left-hand side
- Ability to use each side independently or combine them for a powerful boost
- Lows control to tailor the low-end response and prevent it from becoming
overwhelming
- Compact size: (W)65mm x (L)125mm x (H)53mm (top of Knobs)
- Current Draw: 24mA
The Heavy Water is designed to work in harmony with the guitarist's amp and other pedals, providing a versatile tool to enhance the overall sound. Additionally, a custom shop version is available for users who utilize loopers and require independent control of each side.
