T-Rex Tremonti Phaser
T Rex · pedal
The T-Rex Tremonti Phaser is Mark Tremonti's signature phase shifter, built to cover everything from subtle rhythm and lead shimmer to wide, spacey swirl. It offers Depth, Rate, Level and Bite controls plus a 4-stage/8-stage switch, where the Stage selection moves between a raw, vintage-style phase and a richer, more modern swirl, and the Bite knob adds a touch of overdrive edge for a more authentic vintage character. It suits rock and hard rock players adding movement to clean and driven tones. A flexible, lush phaser with a usefully wide range of textures.
