Citation/mention fame — how often this gear is cited across artist rigs and gear discussion.The TC Electronic Tailspin Vibrato is a compact pitch vibrato pedal that delivers warm, watery pitch-modulation tones with TonePrint technology for deep customization. It produces classic vibrato textures, from subtle, gentle warble that adds dimension to clean tones to deeper, Leslie-like swirl and seasick wobble at higher speed and depth settings. Simple controls for speed, depth, and tone or rise shape the effect quickly, while TonePrint lets players load artist-designed or custom vibrato presets via USB or smartphone. Its true pitch vibrato voice suits psychedelic, surf, vintage, and ambient styles where genuine pitch movement, rather than chorus thickening, is wanted. Affordable and pedalboard-friendly, it offers expressive, musical vibrato in a straightforward package for players adding vintage swirl and motion to clean and driven tones.
The TC Electronic Gravy is a custom Guitar Center version of TC's acclaimed Corona and TriChorus chorus pedals, offering two exclusive effects, tri-chorus and vibrato, custom-tuned for lush modulation. A toggle switches the pedal between chorus, a TonePrint slot, and tremolo, while another footswitch handles on/off. It features stereo in and out, true bypass, analog dry-through for tonal integrity, and TonePrint support for loading custom or artist presets via USB or smartphone. Based on TC's excellent TriChorus, its chorus is rich and clean, with the tri-chorus setting adding deep, three-voice shimmer and the vibrato offering warbly pitch movement. It suits players wanting high-quality, versatile chorus and modulation with stereo width for clean rhythm, ambient layers, and vintage textures.
