Literary Mini #13

**Hello solvers,** and thanks for dropping by and giving my wee puzzles a spin.  I think this one's a shade trickier than usual, so congrats if you cracked it, commisserations if it defeated you this time - but either way, I hope it was fun.  Do me a favour and whack the like button above 👍 and feel free to drop a comment too of course :-)

Here as ever is the wash-up - but shout if anything's unclear:

ACROSS. 2A. ||Homophone of "displeasure" = PIQUE.|| 4A 6A. ||Anag. "ONLUTEBARD".|| 7A. ||Hidden in "hambURGEr".||

DOWN. 1D. ||anag. "GUITAR", minus "universal" = U, first letter of "angst" = A.|| 2D. ||"Usual" = PAR, containing most of "obsolete" = OL[d].|| 3D. ||Double def.|| 5D. ||"Outstanding" = DUE + "tango" = T.||

Plenty more of this sort of stuff is available at https://crosshare.org/tuber, so go ahead and check that out too, and I'll catch you next time.
