Schaller TR-68 Tremolo Pedal 1977
Schaller are mostly known for hardware these days, but way back when, they used to do electronics too. This one was brought to our shores from Switzerland by a longtime Topshelf customer, and it's in remarkable condition for a pedal that's well over four decades old. Everything works: pots are quiet, the battery clip is working, the footswitch is intact... spick and spam. How does it sound? Gorgeous, honestly. It's a simple and effective tremolo that adds wobble and nuance without messing things up too much. It'd make a perfect little 'secret sauce' for studio applications, although it's robust enough for live use too. Hard to find, easy to love!
