The Thneed
Supercool Pedals
The Thneed is a highly dynamic and customizable light to mid gain drive pedal with a signature smooth and bright tone that cuts through the mix.
- Made in Canada
- Level, treble, Gain and bass toggle
- INternal dip switches for gain, clipping diode and true and buffered bypass
- True Bypass
Despite its appearance, The Thneed is a no-nonsense take on the legendary transparent overdrive pedal (that shares its name with a mythical creature) but does away with frivolities like a troublesome charge pump and multiple op amp stages, and instead opts for a more reliable design that provides the same signature sound and tone of its influence.
The Thneed also adds benefits and options like four pairs of selectable clipping diodes for a wide range of drive sounds, a face-forward bass toggle (unless), internally selectable gain modes, and both True Bypass and Buffered Bypass options, to provide sound options and alternatives that can satisfy even the most finicky of guitar chain connoisseurs.
To help offset some of the ecological damage done by the likes of the Onceler family, you have the option of donating a few extra dollars to a tree planting organization along with the purchase of a Thneed. All proceeds will go directly to Tree Canada, which helps to grow and sustain urban canopies in Canada, especially important given our global ecological disasters and wildfires.
Supercool Pedals
Supercool Pedals is a small Canadian effects pedal company founded in 2019 by Jamie Muir in Toronto Ontario, and is now based out of the Peterborough/Nogojiwanong area.
Supercool Pedals are designed not only to provide fundamentally useful and creative effects to musicians, but also to serve as refreshing nostalgia-evoking objets d’arts that bring colour and conversation to pedal boards in an otherwise bland, often utilitarian, and sometimes overwhelming and saturated pedal market.
Each Supercool pedal is designed and built by hand with the highest quality materials, a whole lot of care, and probably a little too much whimsy.
