Coppersound Pedals Loma Prieta Tremolo
Coppersound Pedals · pedal
The CopperSound Pedals Loma Prieta is a gritty harmonic tremolo pedal with four wave-shape modes: Sine, Square, Ramp Up, and Ramp Down. Each mode is accessible with a momentary Shift footswitch which also engages Tap Tempo and three Shift-mode effects: Lo-Fi, Feedback Distortion, and Double-Time. A dedicated Grit control adds harmonic saturation to the tremolo circuit for a uniquely driven, gritty tremolo character. Powered at 9-12V, 30mA current draw. EXP jack for expression pedal control. Named after the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake near San Francisco.
