He is too busy having too much fun … I think the hardest work of the demo is over and he can now cut loose - without showing off anything but the pedal. Well, that’s impossible. He is too good for his prowess not shine. 🎸👨🏼⚕️. 🫶✌️♾️.
The Tube and Opto trems TEND to sound better AFTER the reverb. The Harmonic trem TENDS to sound better BEFORE the reverb. At least that's the way most people prefer them historically. That's one reason that they give you the ability to switch the order. Super nice feature. Shoegazers tend to like EVERYTHING before the distortion and time-based stuff early in the chain, so the ability to choose here is really nice. You are the music maker. You are the dreamer of dreams.
P.S. I just got this thing. I put it in front of a Fender tube amp (ExcelsioR) without a reverb. I've been wanting a good real spring verb so that I could have an all-analog effects chain in front of it. This thing is AWESOME! I bought it for the verb, but the trem is great too. Absolutely beautiful, and it has so much drive that it can push my tube amp into a nice, natural overdrive. So nice.
man this sounds great! I'm happy with my surfybear but the smaller size and tremolo options here (and fitting aquamarine color!) on this new White Whale 2.0 is tempting me to order one of these and compare side by side to see which one I prefer. As usual your intro playing = amazing... also that amazing grit you got when messing with the tremolo aspect of this pedal sounds incredible. (PS I spy a Greer Soma behind you, at 18v it's one of the best pedals I've ever used, even moreso than his Lightspeed!)
Thanks for the comments! I immediately wondered if Surfy would consider a rev/trem in their long format. Can't have too many springs in the collection! Yes, Soma is my favorite Greer pedal ever (that little transformer is key).
If they would only off-board the spring tank, like Bulinski (ASD-1) and Anasounds (Element) have done, they'd really have a winner here. When an '8'-size spring tank can easily fit under a pedalboard, there is no reason to have it inside the pedal, taking up all that real estate. And, then, the user has the option of swapping out spring tanks (length and decay) to taste (which are cheap as chips). Having the spring tank short enough to fit inside the pedal must inherently limit the depth of reverberation (though I haven't done a side-by-side comparison) I will say, though, the option to swap the order of tremolo and reverb is absolute genius! Another great review, Andy!
You can change that in the flint. It’s a secondary mode. I think it’s holding down both footswitches and turning a dwell knob or something before or after noon. It’s in the manual online.
Where is the drip?? What a HUGE oversight on Crazy Tube’s part. Maybe Andy didn’t demonstrate how drippy it can get? Or did these guys just make a surfy colored sea-creature named pedal with NO DRIP? WTF?!? Very disappointing to say the least.
Short tanks like this one don’t have the ability to drip, it’s the same for Anasounds, Echofix and Crazy Tube Circuits. Med to long tanks only seem to present this,it’s probably physics or something.
I love Andy's demos. No funny faces - but plenty going on inside his head.
Maybe a bass stank face once in a while ;)
How could u with that rig

So glad you’re enjoying it! Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Andy + Reverb + Tremolo = I liked this video before even watching it haha
Surfs up! That Seafoam green color will definitely make a splash!
Man aint it blue?

Crazy Tube Circuits are producing some great pedals lately. Unobtanium (Dumble / Klon) and Hi-Power (HiWatt / Colorsound) being two examples.
I really enjoy your intros!

Beautiful playing! Beautiful Vox!
Those sounds man. One of your best demos.
Thanks, really glad you dug it!
Legendary demo, as always 🤘
That new Vox is so rad; really dig that headstock!
Great demo 👌
Just ordered this pedal...yay for me...
that sounds so good, anyone want to buy a flint v2 haha
what a nice play! andy lord!
This demo-track is sick.
The Harmonic trem seemed almost uni-viby to me! Great demo! And Great pedal. I want it please.
Just bought a new Verb… might be returning it lol
The pre/post switch is a big plus (14:55). A "real" Fender amp will tremolo post reverb. This was an aggravation with my Flint.

@@samwisegrangee Wow! Didn't know. Thanks for the info.
I kinda dig that headstock on the Vox (weird to say)
Once your brain gets used to not seeing the same headstock from the last 75 years, it's perfectly fine haha!
@@AndyDemosJust what the world needed, another strat copy...that pedal though
The Roots Band 🤠🎸
Probably a huge ask for analog with a real spring tank, how about a stereo version?😊
Easy, just buy two 🤓
Also - you can put a stereo effect after it to steroize it a bit
🤘👍🏿

Sorry, no drip, no surf, no deal.
For you. Surf is not the only music people use spring reverb on.
