A very nice tremolo for the price for rockabilly solos.

Well manufactured, reliable, essential features

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

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

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

simple and does the job

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

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.

Very good quality tremolo

I bought this tremolo ten days ago. In my signal chain it works very well, without colouring the sound. It is very transparent. Build quality is very good. I think this is the best bang-for-bucks tremolo on the market and I recommend buying it.

I was very surprised at how good this pedal sounds for such a small price tag. I needed a tremolo quickly for a piece I was playing at work. Originally I wanted to wait and get the Flint but decided to get this as it was so cheap. It's well built, sounds great and hasn't let me down. The flashing led is handy.

Great place to start for sound experimentation

Great price and solid build. great tremolo effect, although probably not the most versatile on the market, it will not let you down.

Excellent trem

This is a great little trem for the money, simple to use, rate and depth control only. There is a little boost in volume when engaged which compensates for the perceived volume drop you can get with a trem pedal. It's is more at the gentle end of tremolos, cannot be really choppy in a slicer type of way, more an amp type of trem as on a fender. All analog and true bypass also solidly made metal construction.

Recommended.

Great vintage style tremolo

Don't worry about the name and how cheap it is. This is a really high quality pedal. Build is bullet proof and it's made to almost boutique levels of quality.

I absolutely love this pedal, mainly because of how subtle it is, no mental Tremolo variance here, pure atmospheric subtlety normally associated with Boutique style pedals.

Buy one now! :)

A great pedal for the price.

I have been looking for a tremolo for a while and this one is great. It is very easy to use and has a wide range of sounds. I love the simplicity and that is quite similar to the boss one. It is built quite well it doesn't take up too much room on your board. Great pedal on a budget.
