Danelectro DJ-15 Chicken Salad Vibrato Pedal

No longer available at zZounds
zZounds Gear Experts Say...
Swirling vibrato effect.

Chicken Salad has absolutely nothing to do with the classic 60's swirling speaker effect this mini-pedal creates. With knobs for changing the speed and intensity of the swirl, re-create the great psychedelic 60's with the new Chicken Salad.

These Dano pedals are the best of their kind on the market rivaling some of the boutique crap that's out there. Big money doesn't always mean "awesome" sounding! If you've got a boutique pedal that you love, then get the dano equivalent as a backup!
Sound
Great "Univibe" clone. Has more of the "Band Of Gypsy's" vibe than the Fulltone Dejavibe 2 I had (and got rid of). Kind of phasey and swirly. Fills out the tone on lower rate settings. Very organic and natural sounding. I did the drill mod (to access the "rate" trim) and I highly recommend it.(Make sure you know what you're doing, check on-line for instructions).
Features
It's a Vibe pedal. Turn the knobs til you get the sound you want. Do the Mod!
Ease of Use
See above
Quality
A "rehousing" is in order for any of these Dano pedals if your gonna play out or are on the road. But for the price, it can't be beat.
Value
Awesome value. Big bang for the buck! You probably have $29 bucks in coins laying around the house( or apt).
Manufacturer Support
No opinion. I never had to contact Danelectro concerning any of their pedals (and I own quite a few).
The Wow Factor
Like I said earlier! I would "rehouse" it not only for safety concerns but for aesthetic reasons as well. They're not that ugly but I'd rather see it in a painted hammond box than the plastic one they put it in. I'm not really complaining given the price. It's still sounds better than any of the Fulltone stuff I've owned.
