Tremolo is one of my favorite effects. This Boss pedal is another one that I've had for longer now. Very simple to operate: it has rate and depth controls plus a smaller knob in the middle for adjusting the waveform (from a very gradual seesaw to an on-off helicopter effect). I usually have it set to a subtle, relatively fast throbbing to spice up clean chords. I really like Boss pedals for their sturdy construction and especially for their quiet switching. Although they're not true bypass, they won't eat at your tone. I was surprised to read that a common complaint against the TR-2 is that it drops the volume when turned on. I don't know if mine is a freak example but I hear a slight volume boost... Anyway, I have a lot of love for this box and use it pretty often.
