Assuming this holds up in the long run (received 5days ago) this mod adds versatility and tone and level improvements. Output level control is very useful. Build seems solid. Happy with it so far.

There are so many companies making tremolo pedals, but BOSS still has the best overall (in terms of price and features). It's built like a tank, and has all the adjustments you need without introducing a lot of noise. The Seymour Duncan Shape Shifter Stereo Tremolo Pedal is a better pedal (the best tremolo pedal in the world), but they are twice as expensive.

I have played both pro and semi pro over the past 37 years. I've tried a lot of pedals during that time and I have to say that BOSS seems to have their head on straight. Their warranty is superior to many brands and their pedals are built to work - Period! I had a Dunlop tremolo pedal I had been using for the past 3 years, and not that often because I only perform a handful of tunes that require it, and it failed. It was subtle at first and eventually just fizzled out completely, so I got a TR-2. I haven't had it long, but I trust that it will give me many years of service as do their other pedals. No matter how good a pedal sounds, if it fails to work its useless to me.
I'm kinda a vintage guy so I loved it. Real subtle. I jam with my stereo and just leave it on. Doesn't get in the way on the heavy picking but wavers on the sustained notes. Just volume up and down but very effective. My Music Man amp had the same thing called vibrato. I remember it going over well at country gigs.

First it must be understood that this particular pedal is an "effects" unit. It will not improve anyone's playing. This unit as well as overdrives, reverbs, loops, and delay units, etc., are for efx only. I use several including this Boss tremolo. It has a very nice sound and I use it on particular songs. I would not use it on all songs because it is not to be used this way. Any info one would read about it would be accurate and pleased with the sound. For what I paid...it is an excellent unit.
