Dual pedals just rock, no matter what the combination of effects happens to be. When they’re created together by two different companies, that makes them that much cooler. Today’s pedal sees our friends from Summer School Electronics and Supercool Pedals team up to create a grungy, classic type of sound, with a lot of range and all the nostalgia you can handle: ladies and gents, this is the Smoking In The Boys Room Chorus...

After the instantly recognizable Fuzz Blender ’77 we reviewed from Supercool Pedals a few months ago, we were excited to see what their next effects unit might be. Well, the day has arrived: presenting The Thneed Overdrive, a low-mid gain drive with nods to a certain super-expensive horsie-esque pedal AND one of the greatest authors of all time. And remember: “A Thneed’s a Fine-Something-That-All-People-Need.” The Thneed is a...
