wtb: Tremolo Pedal

[RW James]

Here's the thing... my wife wants to buy for me a tremolo pedal for Christmas, but wants it to be around $30 - which probably means I can go to $50.

Unfortunately, the only commercial pedal I can find in that price range is Behringer - and I couldn't do it (I would never be able to show off my pedal board around here if I did).

I was using a DOD Phaser for the tremolo effect - and it worked fairly well. So I might be interested in a phaser as well.

I don't really expect to find anything - but I though it was worth a shot.


In all fairness to my wife, I should point out that she already gave me a Takamine acoustic-electric for Christmas. I've been playing it and promised I would set it out on Christmas day with a red bow. But I think she wants me to open a gift from her as well.

GO behringer even if it seems 'cheap' they are based on very good (sometimes vintage) pedals and should be respected a little more even though they are enclosed in plastic casing

Look around for a Marshall Vibratrem (VT-2) . . . it's a decent vibrato/tremolo pedal , and they usually pop up on ebay for around 40-50 dollars.

You guys need to check the post date before you respond to threads.

So, Rick - did you ever get that tremolo pedal for Christmas? If not, PM me. If I get a Vibrochamp like I'm planning, I'll be able to let my Boss TR-2 go.

Good point . .. I guess the Christmas thing should have been a tip off too . . ..
