Re: Need a new tremolo pedal
+1 the stock boss pedal sounds pretty good. But in its stock form when you switch it on, the volume drops a very small amount, Though the volume drop is large enough to be noticeable.

Re: Need a new tremolo pedal
+another for the boss tr2 i just got one a couple weeks ago and it's pretty good. There is a volume drop and it also sucks a little bit of tone if you put it between your guitar and amp, but when I stuck it in the effects loop this problem almost vanished. It is a pain to put things in the loop but it works this way. I would like a trem pedal I could use in my chain though without the volume drop.
Supposively keeley fixed this problem and he sells his modded Boss tr2s for 150 on his site.

Re: Need a new tremolo pedal
I A/B'd the Voodoo Lab with the Fulltone Supa-Trem.....to me, the Fulltone sounded better hands down, and it's the one I ended up getting. It's got a hard/soft switch as well as a speed switch that exactly doubles or halves the tremolo speed. It might be a little more than you want to spend, but maybe check eBay.

Re: Need a new tremolo pedal
+1 on the Keeley.
The Line 6 has some great waveforms that go beyond the Triangle/square wave of the Boss and Voodoo Lab. THe EHX Pulsar is a great value, AND it has wave offset. (You can get it to be asymetrical on tricangle to simulate older tube tremolos and you can vary the on-off time on square wave mode to get short helicopter chop through just a momentary drop in signal.
Actually, for the price I say go with the Pulsar, it's small too.

Re: Need a new tremolo pedal
The nicest tremolo that I've ever played is the Empress Tremolo . . . do a google search, it's a pretty sweet unit. I think it's about 300$ Canadian though. I've been using the Marshall Vibratrem for a few years, and it does the job without costing too much . . .
