I plugged it in and I was just shocked at fat, warm and huge it sounded. I actually had never heard anything like it, this was different, it sounded so musical everything just sounded so good when you played it. The unit was basic, Depth, Speed and a Fast Slow switch but omg it sounded incredible - I wanted it - PROBLEM I had no money. I told the guy at the counter it wasn't very good and he shoved it in an over-crowded cabinet. He wasn't a player, and I could tell didn't care a dam about my little box. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eGOOD - hopefully no one find's it. Please no one find it !\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA week later I came back, and there is was stuffed in the same spot, I told the guy I would take it. He actually remembered - you said it was awful ? Oppssss well I think I changed my mind, paid him and ran off to the subway like \"The Kids from Goonies\" with the treasure. I got  home and it was even better with a decent amp, and a real strat. So musical, it even pulsed when you put gain into it almost Vibe like - I LOVED THIS PEDAL. I told myself, someday I am going to make this Tremolo pedal - I actually remember says this in my head.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eWell today is the day, 20 years and it is ready for sale ! \u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt is a take off of the Schaller Tremolo which branded them for the Kent guitar company 50 years ago. I updated some parts to make the unit more useful, I put in a blinking LED, and it sounds exactly to the original. How do I know, because I have the original from that pawnshop although it is now kinda out of the enclosure to check things for this new creation. I will post a pix of this shortly ! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow good is it ?\u003c\/span\u003e Beyond good, a guitar god friend of mine in London told me on the phone \"You know that is greatest tremolo pedal every made no one know's about - your now going to let everyone know the secret\". Ahhhhhhhh yeah sorrrry it is just too good not to !! \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tru-Fi","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57196331041151,"sku":null,"price":165.83,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0032\/9600\/2097\/files\/TRU-Fi_Trem.jpg?v=1774287500","url":"https:\/\/joespedals.com\/products\/ultra-tremolo-compact","provider":"Joe's Pedals","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
