The Crazy Tube Circuits Memphis is a vibrato pedal inspired by vintage vibrato circuits, delivering pure pitch modulation effects distinct from chorus. Controls include Rate and Depth for adjusting the vibrato speed and intensity. Made in Greece by Crazy Tube Circuits as part of their boutique modulation lineup alongside the Cyclone phaser and Echotopia delay. The Memphis delivers pure vibrato pitch modulation without amplitude modulation blending, suited for vintage blues, psych, and classic rock players who want true pitch vibrato effects.
The JHS Artificial Blonde is a signature vibrato pedal designed in collaboration with singer-songwriter Madison Cunningham, priced at $249. The pedal features two independent, footswitch-selectable Speed and Depth preset sections plus a shared Volume and EQ section, allowing instant switching between two distinct vibrato characters. Built around Madison Cunningham's always-on, slightly three-dimensional pitch vibrato sound, it produces vintage-style pitch modulation suited to clean and lightly driven tones. Includes stereo left/right outputs. Made in Kansas City, Missouri by JHS Pedals.
