This is a superb tremolo pedal: [1] Its dials allow for enormous control of the effect. [2] It's very sturdy--an often-noted feature of BOSS pedals. Further, [3] it's utterly easy to use, [4] allows for both 9v battery and power supply/adapter operation, and, most important of all, [5] it delivers beautiful tremolo. (Note: It comes with a 9v battery installed, but it does NOT come with a power source/adapter.) If the price is more than you're willing to pay, consider the DANELECTRO COOL CAT TREMOLO. This also delivers good tremolo, but it does not allow for as much sound-manipulation as the BOSS product; it's still quite good, but the BOSS takes the prize. I paid about $75 for mine and have zero regrets.

I own three units capable of tremolo: Boss TR-2, Line 6 MM4, and the Boss SL-20 Slicer (like a tremolo on steroids). Plus my amp is a Twin Reverb so it too has tremolo. If you are unfamiliar, tremolo modulates the volume as if turning it up and down rapidly.

The Boss TR-2 is the simplest of the three stompboxes to operate, with three controls: "Rate" of modulation, "Depth" of modulation (how much does the volume vary), and a "Wave" shape (jagged, square, or somewhere on a continuum in between). Unlike the other Boss stompboxes I own (CE-5 & PH-3), the TR-2 does not seem to compress sound so that it seems like you're "playing in a fishbowl" (as another reviewer puts it).

The "Wave" control is what gives the unit its sonic versatility, so it is a nice feature to have. Most tremolos have it, but not all. For the price, it can give you a decent set of classic tremolo sounds with nothing too crazy. It is the unit that Tom Morello uses on "Guerilla Radio," and it does well with tremolo classics like the Smiths "How Soon Is Now?" I hear no volume drop problem like other reviews suggest, and this is something I am sensitive to because I generally turn modulations on/off over the course of a song rather than leave them on full time.

Like all Boss stuff, the box is sturdy and I like their big, quiet footswitches over any of the little, clicky ones on other units. The color is a sort of a dull military dark green, not the most attractive thing but not bad either.

The small Boss effects do not come with a power cable, so you will have to factor that into the cost. Boss instructions tell you that you need their particular adapter, but I don't know anyone who says this is a must. I run it off a pedalboard power supply and it seems to work fine.

I've played this pedal for a while now and really dig it. I'm old school, Fender Blues Deluxe reissue and Strats and Teles, this pedal has a great, warm, organic feeling tremolo that I use a lot. You can barely bring it in for some warmth, or really crank the speed and depth for a great sort of rotary speaker effect.
I'll use it with the rate set at tempo for a song and record clean guitar chords up on the middle of the neck. This effect will give you a nice almost Hammond B-3 type of organ sound.

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.

Sure there are fancier Tremolo pedals out there, but I've always been a fan of the Boss TR-2. It's got a more mellow and vintage Fender Tremolo output, and suits my playing to a T. Pair this beauty up with an Electro-Harmonix Cathedral Reverb pedal, and get lost for days. Definitely worth the reasonable cost!

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 give you a deep, heavy throb, with choppy square waves that drop off to total silence, it will give you fine adjustments to the front and rear of the wave, and it can even imitate a backwards played guitar track! Get this only if you want the simplest tremolo possible, and if the Boss pedal size suits your setup. I think it's time Boss updated this little guy.

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 up to another boss pedal or two to produce a unique sound. As a musician I've found that individual boss pedals have better tone than the multi-effects pedals being sold.

Forget all the volume drop comments. There isn't any and it does not color your tone one bit. I have tried a couple miniature novelty pedals. They were more like a boost volume and tone pedal with tremolo thrown in. I wanted something to dress up slow ballads, and of course "Born On The Bayou". This pedal goes from nice subtle background effect to deep depth if you want it. And no variance in your guitar tone or volume when you click it on. I play a lot of acoustic solo and this really is a nice addition to change up my sound here and there and not over do it.
