ThorpyFX Team Medic Buffer/EQ/Boost Pedal

The ThorpyFX Team Medic is a high-headroom buffer, EQ and boost pedal designed to make everything on your board sound better. Whether you are running vintage single coils, hot humbuckers or active bass pickups, it quietly optimises your signal, shapes your frequencies and delivers musical, amp-friendly gain that keeps your core tone intact.

At its heart, Team Medic combines a switchable Class A buffer with a powerful 3 band active EQ and a dual-stage boost. Use it as an always-on tone enhancer, a problem-solving EQ for tricky rooms or hired backlines, or as a flexible gain and level tool that can push your amp from pristine clean into rich, creamy overdrive. Built with premium components inside a rugged enclosure, it is engineered to survive life on the road while delivering studio-grade clarity.

Tone Enhancement For Any Rig

Team Medic is designed to work with all guitars, including bass, and to enhance rather than replace your sound. The internal power arrangement delivers huge headroom so the pedal stays open and articulate, even with high output or active pickups. Used first in the chain, it can restore sparkle and punch to long cable runs and complex pedalboards, making your instrument feel more immediate and responsive under the fingers.

Powerful 3 Band Active EQ

The onboard 3 band active EQ gives you precise control over bass, mids and treble, letting you gently refine your tone or perform dramatic surgery when needed. Add a mid bump to cut through a dense mix, tame boomy lows on hollow stages, or smooth out harsh top end from bright amps and pedals. It is equally at home sweetening an already great sound or rescuing a poorly voiced rig.

Flexible Boost And Drive

With ample gain on tap, Team Medic can push your amp into natural, dynamic overdrive. A footswitchable additional boost stage lets you stack even more level or drive on top, perfect for solos or big chorus moments. Because the circuit is voiced as a tone enhancer, your playing dynamics and the character of your amp remain front and centre, just bigger, richer and more authoritative.

Road-Ready ThorpyFX Engineering

True to ThorpyFX tradition, Team Medic is built like a tank. Recessed knobs and top-mounted jacks keep everything protected and pedalboard-friendly, while the stainless steel laser-etched centre console and tough baseplate give it a distinctive, premium feel. Inside, the robust gold plated PCB, dust sealed potentiometers and carefully selected components ensure low noise, long-term reliability and consistently excellent performance night after night.

• Switchable Class A Buffer Or True Bypass - Choose between a high-quality Class A buffer to preserve clarity over long cable runs, or true bypass if you prefer a completely untouched signal path. This flexibility lets you integrate Team Medic seamlessly into any pedalboard layout.
• 3 Band Active EQ For Precise Shaping - Independent bass, mid and treble controls allow you to fine-tune your tone for different guitars, amps and rooms. From subtle sweetening to bold corrective EQ, Team Medic helps you dial in a sound that sits perfectly in the mix.
• Dual-Stage Boost With High Headroom - A generous primary gain stage and a footswitchable extra boost give you everything from a clean level lift to creamy amp overdrive. The internal power arrangement maximises headroom, keeping your sound tight and articulate even at higher gain settings.
• Premium Components And Rugged Construction - Gold plated PCB, dust sealed pots, Neutrik jacks, Burr-Brown op-amps and 1% metal film resistors are chosen for reliability, low noise and superior tone. Combined with the stainless steel chassis and recessed controls, Team Medic is built to deliver night after night on stage and in the studio.
