(1) This overdrive pedal works on the unusual principle of adding feedback to CMOS inverters, effectively turning them into CMOS op-amps. CMOS transistors tend to overdrive in a more valve-like way than regular ones, so that's what you'll hear with this pedal - not your typical diode pair. You also have the option to bypass the tone control - doing this adds extra volume an fatter mids.
I particularly like the way this pedal works with my Gretsch, but a Wampler Paisley Drive has taken over that spot, so this one is up for sale.
The pedal is in excellent condition and comes complete with the original box and instructions. It will work from a PP3 battery or standard 9V Boss-type power supply (neither included).
New price from GAK is £59 - I am looking for just £39 including tracked delivery within the UK.
(2) Biyang TR8 Tremolo
Whilst waiting for the right boutique tremolo to come along, I filled the gap with a couple of budget pedals, this being one. Now that I am the proud owner of a Subdecay Vagabond, I really can't justify hanging onto this too.
It is reputed to be a clone of the Boss TR-2 - I haven't confirmed this myself, but the control complement is the same, and it sounds to me very much like the YT videos of the TR-2. It runs off a PP3 battery or standard 9V DC supply (neither included).
The pedal is in excellent condition, having had a couple of months of home use only since new, and comes with its original box. It sounds damn fine, but is now somewhat overshadowed by it way-more-expensive boutique brother!
Price is £30 delivered in the UK
