Rotosound RWB1 The Wobbler Tremolo

Rotosound · pedal

The Rotosound RWB1 The Wobbler Tremolo continues the string manufacturer's expansion into effects pedals, applying that established manufacturing background to a classic tremolo circuit rather than a more experimental or unusual effect type. Tremolo works by rhythmically varying a signal's volume, creating the pulsing, throbbing effect associated with surf rock, vintage American amp tremolo circuits, and countless genres since, and the Wobbler's playful name signals the same British boutique-pedal personality found across Rotosound's other pedal releases. As with a phaser or other classic effect built by a manufacturer better known for a different product category, the appeal partly rests on Rotosound's established reputation for build quality translating into this new space.

  • “In a chain it typically sits toward the end of the modulation section, often near reverb, since tremolo's volume-based effect works well as one of the final tone-shaping stages before the amp”
