The Electro-Harmonix Wiggler gives you that classic guitar amp modulation, plus four different types of vibrato in the convenience of a single stompbox.

The all-tube Wiggler will bring you back to the 1960's with its re-creation of the most sought after modulation effects that until now were only found in classic guitar amps. Using an all-vacuum tube audio path, The Wiggler creates 4 different types of note-bending vibrato and true amplitude modulation tremolo with the amazing clarity and warmth that older generations once took for granted. CAUTION: Your friend who shelled out big bucks for a Leslie cabinet will no longer speak to you, so don't say you didn't get a warning.

I love my Wiggler!
Sound
Probably a cleaner sounding effect than is found on most old vintage amps. The pedal can however be a littler harsh and increase treble when engaged, but a simple roll of the tone knob takes care of that. As far as for the sound I was going for, this pedal does the job and then some. There are plenty of settings for lots of groovy tones.
Features
An included AC adapter is nice. There is no battery option.
Ease of Use
Right out of the box and with minimal tweaking of knobs, very cool sounds were easy to achieve. Very simple, yet effective controls.
Quality
The only bad thing i can think of is that the plug from the included AC adapter fits loosely in the jack and seems like it could slip out easily, although it has never happened to me.
Value
It is an expensive pedal. That said, the Wiggler truly has the potential to expand any players sonic landscape for the better, and sound pretty damn good doing it.
The Wow Factor
Yah, it looks cool, but it is bulky and the exposed tubes (protected by a metal grid) seem vulnerable to accidents.
