The TC Guitar Pedals always come out on top. This is New is in stock and ready to post out to you, with fast, reliable delivery straight to your door. For more New Guitar Pedals options, read on for full specifications, demos, and secure online ordering.

The Leslie Rotary Speaker was a classic in the sixties; Hendrix, Harrison and more used it to create surreal sounds, the likes of which hadn’t been before. While not nearly as groundbreaking as it was back then, the rotary effect is still favoured for its naturally retro sound – so Danish wizards TC Electronic set about making a compact, affordable pedal that’ll transport you back in pure style.

Key Features

  • Dynamic Emulation – Dynamic emulation of the classic Vibratone Rotating Speaker
  • Chorale or Tremolo? – The toggle switch lets you choose between vintage-sounding Chorale or Tremelo setting
  • Pedalboard Friendly – True bypass with a top-mounted I/O
  • Rugged Chassis – Compact but roadworthy design

Vintage Tone Spinner

The classic sound of those old rotating speaker systems may have life as an effect designed for the electric organ, but guitarists have always pushed the envelope when it comes to finding new tones. They soon found that when they plugged a guitar in and turned up the tone cabinet tube amps, a surprisingly sweet and dynamic overdrive sound was created – one that has been immortalized on myriad classic rock recordings.

Simple Controls, Authentic Response

VIBRACLONE ROTARY’s Drive knob lets you dial-in that same sweetly organic and rich tube amp sustain accompanied by the lush modulation of a rotating speaker. You have the choice of either the slow and rich Chorale setting, or the fast, almost watery-sounding Tremolo setting – just like the original. Turn the Speed knob to adjust the delayed response from the pedal, which simulates the acceleration/deceleration of the speaker cone – once again, just like the real thing.

Specifications

  • Runs on 9V battery or optional PSU
  • Power consumption: 9V DC and 100 mA

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

The Important stuff

Pedal — Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own..
