The Electro-Harmonix Eddy is an analog vibrato and chorus pedal that pairs lush, vintage voiced modulation with modern expressive control. Vibrato gives a pure modulated pitch wobble while chorus blends the dry signal for a rich doubling shimmer, and the Eddy adds envelope and expression pedal control over the rate and depth of the modulation for dynamic, playable movement. From subtle, warm chorus thickening to deep, seasick vibrato and touch responsive swells, it covers a wide modulation range. It suits players across clean rhythm, indie, surf, ambient and experimental styles who want warm analog chorus and vibrato with the expressive twist of envelope and expression control in an affordable pedal.
The TC Electronic Choka Tremolo is an all-analog tremolo with a simple, intuitive three-knob layout that soaks the signal in old-school amplitude modulation. Its flexible LFO control spans delicate, subtle swells to hard, choppy on-off tremolo, and the analog design adds nice tremolo movement without coloring the natural guitar tone. From gentle surf and country shimmer to deeper, rhythmic chop, it covers classic tremolo ground with ease, working well across country, surf rock, shoegaze, and beyond. The straightforward controls make it quick to dial, and the transparent analog voice keeps the dry tone intact. It suits players wanting authentic, uncolored vintage tremolo in a compact, affordable pedal for adding pulse and movement to clean and driven tones alike.
