The socity Nathan Daniels, Danelectro was cre in 1947. It proposed guitars, basses and amplifiers under his own name but also in various other signatures, Silvertone. Cheap products for beginners and whose charm RSID in years 50-60 trs original design and single-coil pickups, known as "lipstick", sounding trs "surf music". But in 1969, the socity farm. It was not until 1998 that the Company reborn from its ashes. If the guitar and bass come out in dribs and drabs and in small quantities, proposed by Danelectro against many effects pedals cheap in design and quality sound rtro Hon.
This is a vibrato pedals. A true vibrato. Indeed, many manufacturers are misusing the term "vibrato" for a dsign "trmolo". The vibrato is a variation of the pitch of a note. The trmolo is a variation of the volume of a note. It's not quite the same thing!

Casing mtallique, switch on / off, a slecteur for speed, depth and the amount of the effect, entrsortie a guitar, a jack for AC power, a trap for the 9V battery .

The construction quality seems good trs. Rtro design is superb and this vintage is perfect. The buttons are a bit "cheap" but that does not shock on such a 50's inspired pedals.

In short the whole is more than adequate and trs original. Especially true vibrato is an effect on the market rarely and usually available in the TRS premium prices stratosphriques!

UTILIZATION

Operation is simple, empty. The slecteurs rpondent perfectly and are sensitive enough for rglages that you want.
Black Point, the potentiomtres are quite close and very accessible (the rear of the pedals to avoid any unwanted d-rglage upon activation of the effect). So difficult to change the rglages flies.

Little quirk: when the switch triggers the actual effect beginners with a delay of 1-2 seconds? To stop, for against, it is IMMEDIATE.

SOUND QUALITY

Effect pedals for quality in this price range.
The sounds are oriented "vintage" with a discreet vibrato but it is possible to achieve more dramatic effects, and the modern EXAGRES rglages.
In short trs versatile and quality for this price range.

OVERALL OPINION

Cheap but quality versatile and original in its prsentation, its only default ACCS is difficult to potentiomtres.

But its strength is mainly to exist Premire: indeed the vibrato effect is rare. In this price range and with the quality of treatment, impossible not to enjoy it!
