Decent, but Not Amazing - The Boss TR-2 Tremolo Pedal Review

Value for money wise, this is a really good pedal.

This product does what it is supposed to do. It really isn't any better or worse than any of the competitor products. There was no volume drop with this as others have indicated. It will hold up well just like any other Boss product.

Classic pedal, must-have effect, great price

Great for subtle tremolo sounds. There are some wild and more pronounced ones in there but it takes a lot of fiddling to find those. I like extreme and weird sounds but also love finding new ways to use classic sounds. Tremolo has always been the one effect I overlook and this is my very first one (...

Well, it works well enough for what it does, and I don't notice any problem with volume drop when engaged, but I've gotta say it gives you a very mild tremolo, with little adjustable effect. And when you compare it to the Electro-Harmonix Stereo Pulsar, it gets very badly blown away. The Pulsar can ...

Good Pedal With One Flaw

For the money I think this is a great pedal. I have little use for the CE-2 setting, but the S and CE-1 settings are very useable. I'd give it 5 stars but for one annoying feature.

this is a great pedal, but it doesn't produce a tremolo effect that's very different from other tremolo guitar pedals. Thought perhaps switching the waveform dial would produce a unique effect, but it didn't. It is one of the lower priced boss pedals, and I think it's worth the money if you hook it ...

Thought I was getting a brand new product but it's definitely used. Bummer

Can see signs of use: Light scratches, covered in fingerprints and what looks like water marks. The box that it came in was very worn and it the pedal was not covered in plastic and it came with no paperwork.

I like this pedal a lot. My only complaint is the price for the flexibility. It is still a great pedal. Definetly recommend to anyone
