Guys.




I just made a tremelo pedal.

It's fucking awesome. I based it on a simple design but did some component swaps and tweaks so that you can get very choppy trem sounds or more vintage minded ones out of it depending on what you want. It's going to be called The TreMorellolz, come in a small case and have Depth, Rate and a Vintage/Chop toggle switch. It's amazing, I'll make a video demo of the prototype at some point. Probably will sell for around £60.

Clearly, we're going to have to have a knife fight.

ROLF.

Mine doesn't have Volume or Gain, but it does have a TOGGLE. I don't have expression peds input neither. It's bound to be more simple and limited than your beast, but I'm proud of it nonetheless. The status LED will pulse with the tremelo rate.

Cheers buddy. They're all curing in the shed as I lacquered ontop after masking off the components if necessary, there's no light in there, and it's too rainy to pull them indoors now, so I'll get some pictures up when I can - busy tomorrow and Thursday though.

I even lacquered on top since you were such a whiny baby about it. I'll post it in a couple of days when it's cured a bit.

Do you have the coin?

If you pay the fees!

Do you not have internet banking or is your bank made of those Marshmallow Flumps?

I'll sort the fees. I do have internet banking, but they've made it so I need to put my card in a reader first and get a code but the wretched thing doesn't bloody work so I effectively don't have internet banking. However I'm going to sack Barclay's off soon.

That sounds pretty wanky, and defeats the purpose somewhat.
