Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

Three tremolo modes: Tube, Opto, and Harmonic with Speed and Intensity. Independent footswitches for each effect section, selectable effects order, expression control for reverb mix and tremolo speed. 9V DC 180mA.
The Wampler Mini Faux Spring Reverb is a compact pedal that recreates the warm, drippy character of a classic outboard spring reverb tank in a small, simple enclosure. With straightforward controls for the reverb level and tone, it delivers everything from subtle ambience that adds dimension to clean tones to deep, splashy, surf-style spring drip, while preserving the dry signal's clarity. It captures the bouncy, resonant decay of real spring reverb without the bulk or microphonic noise of a physical tank. It suits surf, rockabilly, blues, and vintage-leaning players wanting authentic spring reverb tones in a pedalboard-friendly format, offering classic drip and ambience for clean rhythm and lead that blends naturally with amps and other effects in a focused, easy-to-use reverb pedal.
