Did You know . . .
Tubes make great effects pedals! Why? Guitar amps built on tubes have dominated the music industry for well over fifty
years because they deliver the tone guitarists desire & love.
Nearly every solid-state guitar amplifier manufactured is marketed with a
claim to reproduce tube sound.
And at the heart of many of the finest studio compressors, microphone preamps, tape echo units & reverbs
there's an analog signal path that uses 'fire bottles'.
The 'Tube Imp'
Affordable, precision tube testing is now here in the form of the
'Tube-Imp' Mini tube tester.
The Tube-Imp puts you in control and there is no need to rely on paying a premium for matched tubes.
It also removes any uncertainties when using older tubes, so why not blow the dust of some of your vintage tubes
and give them a whirl!

'There's a huge amount of variation in what this effect can do and the sound is full, lush and spacious with minimal backgound noise.'Guitar Buyer Magazine Issue 70 June 2007
The Vibra Chorus pedal is optimized to produce a much smoother and more subtle, yet sophisticated
'meta-chorus' effect. At slower modulation rates it produces wide, open and
natural chorusing that adds another dimension to chord and rhythm playing and at
faster rates it creates a light, watery and bubbly effect, whlist retaining clarity and transparency.
