Not just satisfied with releasing the new $75 DIY fuzz pedal, Jack White’s Third Man Hardware has announced the Triple Threat today as well.
Earlier this month, Jack White hinted on Instagram about this exciting collaboration. The pedal is available in two versions: a limited-edition yellow exclusive to Third Man’s Reverb store and a standard black variant.
Alpha series
Inspired by Donner’s Alpha series pedals from 2017, White recognized their quality and value, making them ideal for Third Man Hardware’s beginner guitarists.
Three Effects
The Triple Threat features three main footswitches. Its Distortion effect includes volume, gain, and tone controls, engineered to produce a powerful rock sound. The Phaser segment, an upgrade from Donner’s Pearl Tremor pedal, offers extended modulation controls. The Echo effect, derived from Donner’s first pedal, the Yellow Fall Delay, boasts a warm analog tone and rich feedback.
Third Man Hardware
Designed externally by Third Man Hardware, the Triple Threat’s circuitry and tone have been tailored to White’s specifications. He expresses his desire to create an affordable pedal for beginner musicians, praising the heavy-duty quality of the effects. The Triple Threat, he says, will be a comfortable addition to any musician’s pedal board.
Priced at $99 for the standard edition and $129 for the limited-edition model on Reverb, the Triple Threat promises to be a sought-after item for musicians.
