Swamp Trem

From the vendor

An attempt to recreate the Fender Blackface trem in a box. Does a pretty good job too.

The original has a footswitch to swap between the two speed modes, but really - what're the chances you're going to have a single speed setting witih both switch positions working out for you? It's a toggle. If you want to wire it up as a footswitch, go nuts.

We've made a couple of value tweaks from the orignal to mitigate the volume drop and the all-but-useless depth control.

If you want the PCB without parts there's a link for that at the bottom of the page.
