ThorpyFx Old Timer - Octave, Fuzz, Vibe

[@archstanton3763]

Still the best guitar lessons on KZbin. thanks Andy !

[@oansun]

Love to see the old GL

[@AndyDemos]

It’s still my favorite “Strat”!

[@phillseagram]

Came for the intro demo because I knew it would be KILLER, and I knew the price would be through the moon

[@melvinallenallen7424]

Love that axe. Got a G and L Leg a year ago or so. Saved up for it after a saw you play yours. Thnks Andy!

[@NebulaStudios1]

Holy Crap! That opening.

[@albertoz5450]

Many years ago i hadn't yet realised that Andy is an endless gold mine of riffs and emailed Proguitarshop asking what song he was playing at a certain moment in a video. They said: it's probably Andy. So true!

[@albertoz5450]

By the way, it was what you played from min. 2.25 in the old Pgs video of a Stratocaster american vintage '65. Great playing as usual!

[@MattDonaldson]

Andy is my fav go to one pedal advice!

[@AndyDemos]

Thanks so much!

[@nate433]

With how expensive Thorpy pedals are, i was afraid to look at the prices for a 3-in-1. $900+, holy cow

[@75YBA]

It’s got a lot of bells and whistles. I can see why. I mean, it’s probably the first Fuzz Face with a transformer in the circuit.

[@nate433]

Definitely not, that has existed for a while in all sorts of different impedance dependent topologies. Look up AMZfx's Guitar Pickup Simulator if you're curious

[@brooksrownd2275]

When you know you shoulda become a dentist... ;)

[@kierenmoore3236]

@@75YBA. Bells & whistles don’t necessarily mean better sound/tone, unfortunately. Often the opposite.

[@big_hat_logan]

I literally died when I saw the price on this. I’m dead, goodbye

[@therewasascene]

I don’t even need to look - it’s 3 Thorpy pedals in one

[@nicknickson3650]

damn $921 you're not kidding. That's insane.

[@baseboardmatt]

You literally died?? I’m so sorry. But how did you type this comment if you’re dead?

[@BockwinkleB]

Sounding inspired Andy, really loved the playing, and the sound of this pedal is just amazing. That Vibe is so thick and chewy, I think I lost a filling. Really enjoyed the demo, thanks! Well done @thorpyfx, a great idea superbly executed!

[@AndyDemos]

Thanks a ton!

[@markhammer643]

You're having a little TOO much fun, there, sonny boy! Like a grilled cheese sandwich and bowl of tomato soup, some classics have rightfully *earned* their spot as classics. And this little trio is as classic as Jimi, Noel, and Mitch. There's a nice compressed bloom on the bass. I'm also more fond of the transformer-based Tycho Brahe Octavia, than the later all-transistor Octavia, so pleased to see it included here. Nice work on the product and demo. Hats off.

[@ibaneztubescreamer]

Hey, I love this. I must be an old timer, good marketing!

[@edadpops1709]

Great playin sonny

[@johndrowe5281]

Your playing is always exceptional and expressive for the pedal you demonstrate. But I really admire most, is how you get to know each pedal so well before presenting it. I can only hope that your family does not suffer from your time away in your “playroom“…😊. Thank you for taking your job seriously and for doing it so conscientiously well. Cheers/Slainte . The Fuzz, with the vibe of one of the best combinations, I have heard since Keeley ‘s Monterey pedal. smooth yet expensive. They command attention - at least in your hands. We shall have to hide and watch to see you at mine can do.😂.

[@AndyDemos]

Really appreciate the comment, John! Cheers 👊💥

[@alexokrayiii9689]

I am putting this on my wishlist.

[@mattlangill1100]

Another great demo Andy! Lots of features and high quality circuits; you get what you pay for!

[@AndyDemos]

You got that right!

[@therewasascene]

Nice I/Os!!

[@jonathan-smith]

Went with the Psychedelic Machine a few months ago. This is sick though!

[@DetroitHomeHub]

Great video. Awesome pedal. Pedals are addictive. I don’t have a problem 😂

[@digiwaves]

Hey Andy, nice stank face at the intro! Even though not a big fan of Thorpy, this one is pretty cool. 😎🎸

[@turbonico]

the only pedal i need !

[@impala666]

Great job, Andy.

[@edadpops1709]

Dang that would be a solo I’d want to see live. Come on man

Wow❕👍☮️🌞🎸🎵💖

[@jobiazgarza9571]

Andy can make mass market pedals sound awesome and boutique pedals sound unearthly

[@2ndDayRiffs]

Amazing. $900 is a little rich for me as I have a currency deficiency.

[@hoboroadie4623]

Just over my monthly allowance, but sometimes I find a workaround for that, and I have been lamenting my Thorpy deficiency for a while. Actually looks a lot like a bargain to me, when I add up all the knobs.

[@lordimpaler3899]

All my favorite pedals have an Andy demo lol. I think I'll have to pass on this pedal (cause broke), but I could listen to Andy play all day 👍

[@winstonsmith8236]

god, such a dork... I literally said "oooowwwuu" out loud like a rich lady at a perfume counter when I saw the thumbnail

[@t0dd707]

Shreddage!

[@feathermorren4456]

hey someone at thorpy got high! Sounds awesome

[@richardhessian4725]

Andy is wasted on these product demos. What a super tasty player!

[@BockwinkleB]

Tough not to jam some Jimi licks with a univibe.

[@PutItAway101]

You can cheat with Robin Trower licks, which is basically Jimi licks.

[@ReidPassmore]

Does it come with a dolly to move it. 9 hundred plus, can only dream about this pedal.

[@LukeBlase]

A lot of ins, a lot of outs, a lot of what-have-yous.

[@denmut]

Andy, do you have the stock pickups on this G&L? Thanks

[@AndyDemos]

Yes I do! I’ve only upgraded the nut to a Graphtech and shortened the trem arm 👍🏻

[@johnannovisuals]

Its uhhhh....$921 😳

[@hoboroadie4623]

Count the knobs. If it is too many, then you will want something else. 🎸

[@tonyevans9999]

It kinda takes the fun out of building a "BOG" board, but it's ok. In Australian dollars it would be well and truly out of reach and contention for most but I get it's hardly a mass produced everybody pedal. It sounds good

[@brianrollins7275]

I give this video 2 👍🏻👍🏻 and 3 awesome’s for (in no particular order) The pedal Andy The playing Nothing more to say

[@AndyDemos]

Wow, thank you!

[@guitarradioshow]

It sounds great. Not $923 great. 😂 Humans are so silly.

Cheeky coconut in the thumbnail! I love Thorpy pedals and it’s great to support excellent value, high quality handmade UK products.

I have MXR’s SubMachine and UniVibe. I get similar tones…

[@ElektroHaus]

I liked it better when it was called the Keeley Monterey, currently at $254 vs $920… Love your playing and channel Andy, cheers 🥂

[@kierenmoore3236]

Just makes me miss the Captain Coconut 2.

[@sixbladeknife44]

Sounds good, the Thorpy graphics are always awful.

[@kierenmoore3236]

Truly, just the worst. 🎨 lol

[@atlasmarr5230]

Agreed. Cool pedal but hideous.

[@tedmich]

So its about $200 less than the Captain Coconut 2? I can still get 3 separate pedals for less!

[@horrorview]

My Keeley Monterey sounds just as good and it only cost me $150 used.

[@hoboroadie4623]

This one will not be cheaper used. Luckily you got that Monterey, and it is just as good 👌

@@hoboroadie4623. Oh, I think it will be. lol

[@Manuel-mj5mv]

Sounds really good. But I’d prefer to build a clone with kits, that would only be ~200€. 900€ for this is a bit too much

[@ScottyBrockway]

Hey Thorpy do something new/unqiue instead of ripping off the Captain Coconut.

[@AndyDemos]

C’mon, it’s an obvious tribute and Fox hasn’t made the CC since 2006. The effects themselves stem from 3 different companies in the 1960s. I personally have been waiting for someone to reimagine this type of thing for many years.

[@loulagro2315]

Dude, no offense but there is essentially NOTHING new or unique for decades. Everything is a take on something, or a derivative, a remake, tweaked, etc etc...... Yeah, this is basically a Captain Coconut but take 100 people that might like to buy one and see how many actually find one for sale....... maybe 1 or 2? ..... So here's this for anyone who thinks it's cool. And for that matter like ANY other pedal there's usually room for little improvements here and there...... matching components better, better sourcing of rare parts, on and on ......
