Key Features
Vintage Spring Reverb Emulation
Our spooky take on the haunted amp-top spring reverberation units of yesteryear with enhanced capabilities that exceed original hardware limitations. Analog/digital hybrid design captures authentic spring character with modern reliability.
Variable Pre-Delay Control
The attack knob dictates when the effect enters your signal for note clarity, and it can even simulate a slapback delay. Range of 30-150ms allows everything from tight rockabilly slap to expansive atmospheric washes.
Self-Oscillating Decay
At high settings it will self-oscillate, with the pitch of the oscillation determined by the Attack knob. Re-calibrated dwell control can reach self-oscillation for experimental textures and feedback effects.
True Bypass Operation
Electronic relay-based switching with true bypass ensures your signal remains unaffected when the pedal is disengaged. All-analog signal path maintains tonal integrity and dynamic response.
