The Browne Amplification Ethane Dual Overdrive Pedal, is an exclusive new release available only at Andertons Music Co. Priced at £349.00, this highly anticipated pedal fuses two of Browne Amplification’s most revered circuits – the Carbon and the Gritador – into a single, powerhouse unit, promising the ultimate tonal versatility for discerning players.
Ethane Dual Overdrive
The Ethane Dual Overdrive is being hailed as a pedal to own for tone-chasers seeking the perfect blend of transparent overdrive and vocal-like midrange punch.
Bluesbreaker/Tube Screamer
Designed in collaboration with Browne Amplification, this pedal represents a heavily tweaked and modified take on the classic Bluesbreaker/Tube Screamer amalgamation, delivering uncompromised dynamics and an inspiring feel.
Lee Anderton expressed his enthusiasm for the new pedal: “I’ve always loved the Carbon and the Gritador individually, but the idea of fusing them into one pedal so that the tones could be easily stacked? That was the dream. The Carbon gives you that refined Bluesbreaker tone – clear, dynamic, and incredibly responsive (think John Mayer) – while the Gritador brings that rich, vocal midrange and punch that just sings through a mix (think Stevie Ray Vaughan!). And when you stack them together, your guitar will just sing.”
The Ultimate Fusion: Carbon and Gritador Combined
At the heart of the Ethane lies the perfect marriage of two distinct, yet complementary, overdrive voices.
The Carbon, a Bluesbreaker-voiced overdrive, builds upon the foundations of that coveted circuit, pushing it to new levels with improved volume, gain, dynamics, and EQ range.
This versatile, transparent overdrive is designed to be the foundational drive for any rig, delivering everything from sparkling edge-of-breakup to crisp and dynamic overdrive. It’s the ideal natural-sounding light to mild overdrive that players will never want to be without, perfect for achieving those coveted John Mayer tones.
Meanwhile, the Gritador, Browne Amplification’s take on the legendary TS-type circuit, pushes any setup to the next level.
Modified for a fuller low end, a more rounded and less nasally mid-range hump, and a refined clipping stage, the Gritador is arguably the most polished version of the pedal that helped define rock guitar.
This circuit excels at delivering the powerful, vocal-like midrange and punch synonymous with Stevie Ray Vaughan. When stacked, the Ethane unlocks a vast spectrum of blues-rock tones, offering unparalleled flexibility for lead and rhythm playing.
Built for Superior Tone and Reliability
As with all Browne Amplification pedals, the Ethane Dual Overdrive is crafted with uncompromising quality. Every component, from the stunning Black Silver Vein powder-coated enclosure to the meticulously thought-out electrical parts, is selected for superior tone and a lifetime of reliability.
This top-tier construction ensures exceptional sound and durability. The pedal also features convenient top-mounted jacks for efficient pedalboard integration, along with an adjustable startup state and internal split mode for seamless setup. True bypass and soft switching preserve your signal integrity, and the unit is proudly made in the USA by Browne Amplification.
The Browne Amplification Ethane Dual Overdrive is set to become an essential tool for guitarists seeking the pinnacle of boutique overdrive pedals. Its exclusive availability at Andertons Music Co. makes it a must-have for UK players looking to elevate their sound. Secure yours today and experience the ultimate fusion of classic overdrive tones.
