The GUP Tech Angel Reaper is a triple-in-1 overdrive and boost pedal: three overdrive circuits in a single enclosure, built as a stackable chain of matched circuits that the maker says will take you "from bluesy to Crunchy tones"1. It covers overdrive and boost duties in one box, and it sits in the same family as GUP Tech's other drive pedals such as the Baby Honker and the Donut Douche Edition1.

The three circuits

Each of the three circuits is based on a well-known overdrive design, modified by GUP Tech1:

CircuitBased onGUP Tech's changes
Angel HonkerBluesBreakera little bit more volume, thanks to the Morning Glory mod1
HorsieKlon Centaurdescribed as the classic Klon clone1
Honker Hot Rodoriginal TS-808Fat and Voicing modes1

The three are arranged as a stackable chain of perfectly matched circuits, so they can be used together as well as on their own1. GUP Tech also notes that the circuit order can be rearranged by rewiring2.

Jacks and signal routing

The input and output arrangement is split between the circuits, which matters when you wire the pedal into a board:

  • Top right jacks: for the Angel Honker and the Horsie1
  • Top left jacks: for the Honker Hot Rod only1

Power

The Angel Reaper runs on 9V DC only. GUP Tech warns that anything higher will blow the Klon circuit, so keep it off higher-voltage supplies. Power consumption is 27mA1.

Availability, colors and where it is made

GUP Tech lists the Angel Reaper in Green, Red, Light Blue and Orange1. As of 26 October 2026 the maker's page showed the pedal as re-stocking soon1, while the Douche edition page showed it as sold out1. All GUP Tech pedals, including this one, are made by the company in Saguenay, Québec, Canada1.

The listed price shown on the maker's page was £175.00 GBP1.

Questions

Can the three circuits be used separately?

The Angel Reaper is built as a stackable chain of three matched overdrive circuits, so the circuits can be stacked to move from bluesy to crunchy tones. The jack layout is split between the circuits: the top right jacks serve the Angel Honker and the Horsie, while the top left jacks serve the Honker Hot Rod only. GUP Tech also says the circuit order can be rearranged by rewiring.

What colors does the GUP Tech Angel Reaper come in?

GUP Tech lists the Angel Reaper in four color options: Green, Red, Light Blue and Orange. As of late October 2026 the pedal was listed as re-stocking soon on the maker's site.

Where is the GUP Tech Angel Reaper made?

GUP Tech builds the Angel Reaper at its own shop in Saguenay, Québec, Canada. The maker states that all of its pedals are made by the company there.

Is the Angel Reaper a Klon clone?

Only in part. The middle circuit, the Horsie, is described by GUP Tech as a classic Klon clone based on the famous Centaur. The pedal also holds two other circuits: the Angel Honker, based on the BluesBreaker with more volume from the Morning Glory mod, and the Honker Hot Rod, based on the original TS-808 with Fat and Voicing modes.
