Reissue Analog Chorus Pedal

Reissue series vintage chorus pedal for guitar or bass. The chorus effect produces a ringing modulation which gives the impression of multiple guitars playing in unison with a slight detuning to broaden the sound. Vintage style analog circuitry uses BBD chips to deliver a warm tone, reminiscent of many classic guitar tracks from the 1980's and is still as relevant today. A perfect introduction for newcomers to the chorus effect or even for the experienced analog purists.

• Pure analog "bucket-brigade" circuitry
• True bypass hardware switching
• Width, Speed & Blend controls
   

Dimensions: 121 x 77 x 47mm

Reissue Analog Delay Pedal

Reissue series vintage delay pedal for guitar or bass. The delay effect records the guitar input and plays it back as multiple repeats, creating an echo effect. Vintage style analog circuitry uses BBD chips to deliver a warm tone, reminiscent of many classic guitar tracks from the 1980's and offers a less harsh and clinical tone than many modern digital delay units. A perfect introduction for newcomers to the delay effect or even for the experienced analog purists.
