EHX Stereo Pulsar Tremolo - used and funky

I love tremolo. It's one of my favorite (probably is my favorite) effect.

Found a minty Pulsar on craigslist. I'm a repeat customer of this seller :lol:, bought an amp from him not long ago. Funny. Dude is that you?

Here we have the Electro Harmonix Variable Shape Stereo Pulsar Tremolo Pedal. That's a long pedal name.

In addition to depth & speed you have the triangle vs. square form switch and a third knob lets you further tweak the transition of the sawtooth. You can really tweak this thing. You can go from Tremolo to Uni-Vibe.

It's dead quiet with volume boost or loss when you engage it. It's dead quiet.

This is a dumb way to entertain myself but it's lots of fun. I ran the stereo outputs on the pedal into two amps and sat back 6 feet and enjoyed the tremolo panning. I know it sounds childish (oooohhh! stereo effects!!! :rolleyes:) but it's really very pretty clean and funky with a TS-808. It's not overboard or gimmicky. It's just entertaining. Sounds big and analog and warm.

It was 100 degrees here today (again) and I went downstairs and sat on the floor with the two amps and played for a couple hours.

I've had stereo delay or stereo chorus pedals but never stereo Tremolo.

Stereo Tremolo is fun. Hee-Haw.....but better

Wiggle Box would be a great band name.

Good one Fezz. Now I'm calling it a Wiggle Box.

So does it do all those helicopter & subtle sound ?

I'm always been intrigued by this pedal
