Harley Benton Vintage Tremolo Reviews

Jo

A very nice tremolo for the price for rockabilly solos.

For the price, nothing more to ask.

Sounds exactly as you imagine. Nothing more nothing less. extraordinary

Best trem ever

This is a fantastic sounding tremolo from slow to fast its got it all

Well manufactured, reliable, essential features

Taking into account the price/value ratio this device has no competition.

smooth sound

Love this pedal really can't go wrong for the money and does what I wanted it to. only little thing I don't like it the ports being on the side instead of the top.

overall 3/5 for this one

Fab but basic tremolo

Sounds lush

Ok - this lacks the features of some more expensive units - there's no control on the wave shape / bias , and no volume (so if you need to compensate for perceived volume loss you'll need to find somewhere else in your chain to do this). It just does the one optical tremolo really well - very amp-like. If you're looking for a basic tremolo this is outstanding for the price.

The speed and depth have good range from subtle to super choppy .

The colour and (slightly bizarre?) graphics might divide opinion but I quite like them.

One drawback - considering it is very basic with just two knobs it is still a full size pedal - t would seem perfectly feasible to have the functionality in mini-pedal format

Very good but subtle tremolo

This pedal is very good in what it does: subtle tremolo. Surfy sounds and shoegaze is easily achieved with this pedal. But if you're looking for a tremolo that can go into extreme (clippy killswitch sound) this pedal doesn't do that.

The speed and intensity rate work very well. But the pedal doesn't get very extreme.

This does make it easy to keep the tremolo effect very subtle.

All in all I'm very happy with the pedal! It works perfectly fine, had zero issues with it. I just wish there was a possibility to make it sound a tad more extreme whenever I needed it to.

Harley Benton Vintage Tremolo

Prima pedaaltje voor zijn prijs. Goede kwaliteit en afwerking.

Enige min-punten:

- Pot-meters draaien héél soepel waardoor je met je voet ze snel per ongeluk verzet.

- Gescheiden afgeschermde voeding (dus geen daisy chain) is nodig, anders hoor je zachtjes tremolo-ruis als de pedaal uit staat.

Solid Trem Pedal

I had a different tremolo pedal in the past and hated it. This pedal does just what I want., it adds trem, and changes speed. I don't need or want anything else. This is a great value. The construction is solid.

Great for adding that "Something" to your clean tone

I use it as an "Always On" pedal for my clean tones, less intensity and varying the rate depending on the set I'm playing. Great way to add that little extra to clean tones

tremendous tremolo

it's a tremolo. sounds like a tremolo. no less, no more (thank god!)...possibly the best HB pedal after the vintage overdrive

Basic Tremolo

just a basic tremolo for good price, does what its suppose to do!

simple and does the job

The only reason to give a 4 on features is that the rate button is non linear

Nice if you want to try if tremolo is for you

Overall quality of te effect for this price is quite good, casing is ok, battery incasement is nice feature, only fonts and yellowish knobs could look better. Wish there was Custom line vesion, they look way more high end. I found for myself 2 nice sounds I would use, mostly by operating rate knob, and that's 2 more than I normally can find on effect from this price range. It doesn't sound aggresive and that was something i was looking for.

Great sounding basic tremolo.

A basic optical tremolo. You will obviously get some volume drop since there's no boost. You can't change the LFO waveform. The LFO won't go to audio rate, so you can't do weird noises.

That said it sounds absolutely great! A nice subtle sound. If all you want is a basic tremolo of the type you'd have on many amps, this is exactly the ticket.

The knobs are nice and big, construction is decent.

A cheap product that does exactly what it says on the tin.

Vraiment surprenant !

Ce tremolo est vraiment excellent. Incroyable pour le prix.

Mon tremolo est toujours allumé, pour ajouter une touche rythmique sexy, et cette pédale est nickel pour un son vintage.

Elle ne fait pas de "son d'hélicoptère" ou de trem très intense, mais ce n'est pas ce qu'on lui demande.

Quand le "depth" est au minimum, il peut servir de boost sympa.

Tremolo

If a pedal has only one feature and it works very well. With unbelievably low price you can get this quality pedal. I would totally recommend this.

The LED blinking indicates the rate of tremolo, I think that is cool.

Timeless sound

A terrific Tremolo pedal. Would buy again.

Cheap but ok.

Run off the mill tremolo, not bad at all. Will never be my go to , but has its place in the studio.

Works and sounds awesome except for the effects loop - for some reason there is a huge volume drop. Otherwise it's awesome and sounds really nice before amp as a subtle effect.
