This machine is amazing, Ive played tremolo amps
and i like this sound better.
can be made slow for spacy surf, or you can set it to your exact
tempo to make a vampire sound on every note you play.
Tremolo is the sweetest effect and this is the cheapest pedal out there for this kind of sound.

Style of Music: alternative/country/irish/mississippi hill country blues/jazz/ old rock

Musical Experience: active musician

Location: san diego, california

Feature:
if came with a brand new danelectro battery (nice, they are). the best feature is the switch to go from triangle/square wave instantly.

Desirability:
they look like rad '50s style effects and they fit in the palm of your hand.

Sound:
sounds GREAT. i use two with my electric piano and one before my old two knob voodoo lab tremolo. just fantastic little units.

Style of Music: Metal mostly, with occasional soundtrack work on the side

Musical Experience: Hobbyist

Location: Kingston, Ontario, Canada

Quality:
Plastic case probably wouldn't take a lot of beating on the road. Mine stays in the studio so that's not a problem.

Desirability:
Glad I own it, but wouldn't go out of my way to replace it if it broke

Sound:
It's an interesting pedal. I use it on the fastest setting to create a sort of B3 type sound on my guitar. Virtually useless as a "regular" tremelo, as even the slowest setting is too fast

Overall:
I bought it because I needed a tremelo. I still need a tremelo, but this pedal doesn't do that. I did gain a nifty little box that can create some interesting sounds though.
