ThorpyFX The Team Medic/WarthogTourbox - Anyone Want To Sign Up & Review ?

Wazmeister

One and all,

In the past, I was involved in running the Bearfoot FX Tourboxes for here and on The Gear Page (TGP).

A Tourbox is where a collection of  pedals are sent out, for you to try and review.

There are no fees involved, but there are insured shipping costs to the next person.

Naturally, there is a degree of vetting (if that's the right word) and accountability.

Now, Adrian who owns and runs Thorpy FX has given me the opportunity to run our very own Fretboard 'ThorpyFX' Tourbox !!

It is a wonderful opportunity and very kind of him...

Now, to test the water, we are beginning by simply running a Two Pedal Tourbox. This involves the brilliant 'Team Medic' and the ‘Warthog’ !

If you are interested in taking part, please read the rules and requirements below.

Let me know good people,

Cheers,

Warren

Great idea and well done @Thorpyfx it’s a great way for people to get a good idea what the pedals can do

fandango

Really great pedal. I already have one direct from The Man himself, but if you’re umm’ing and ahh’ing then you've nohing to lose by signing up.

NorthernStomps

Great idea! 

ThorpyFX

Ill add an Ex demo Warthog to this box....... it makes sense as you can see how strong the EQ in the TM is by seeing what it can do to the warthogs signal.

fretmeister

What are the EQ centres on the medic?

Wondering about bass use.

Jonathanthomas83

I'd love the Team Medic and happy to blog about it too (see sig). Thanks for sorting this Warren, great idea!

Winny_Pooh

OMG, if a warthog is in then so am I! 

skay

If I sign up, I'm going to want to buy one aren't I...

simonbeckwith

@skay you mean both right?!

skay

Yep, that's exactly what I'm afraid of

fandango

@skay nothing to be afraid of. Just make sure you budget for more than two. Because two isn't enough.

smudge_lad

Can i just have the medic and the warthog can bypass me, lol? Already have and love the WH! 

soma1975

In.  Of the gazillion pedals I have bought and sold and played I have not played a single Thorpy.
