Browne Ethane: Two Iconic Drives, One Killer Pedal

The Ethane is Browne Amplification’s new dual overdrive, combining the Carbon V2 and the Gritador into one compact, beautifully engineered pedal.

Designed in Kansas City and built for players who demand the best, it delivers exceptional versatility, rugged reliability, and tone that inspires every time you step on it!

Carbon V2: Bluesbreaker Evolved

The Browne Carbon V2 side takes the classic Bluesbreaker foundation and refines it with Browne’s signature clarity, headroom, and dynamic response.

It moves effortlessly from clean boost to rich overdrive, with a 3-way high-cut toggle that lets you tailor the top end for stacking or brighter rigs. Perfect for Mayer-inspired leads, expressive rhythm work, and anything that needs chime with authority.

Gritador: Tube Screamer Redefined

The Gritador side reimagines the Tube Screamer with fuller lows, a more balanced midrange, and asymmetrical clipping for a lively, articulate feel.

Whether you’re chasing SRV-style grit or tighter, more modern gain, the Gritador cuts through the mix without sounding harsh or congested.

Stack for Even More

With both circuits under one roof, the Ethane offers a massive range of stacked tones, from warm, transparent boost textures to saturated, harmonically rich lead sounds.

The Carbon’s headroom pairs perfectly with the Gritador’s mid-forward bite, making it easy to dial in your ideal gain structure. Soft-touch switching, adjustable startup state, and internal split mode ensure smooth integration into any board.
