Like Having Many Tremolo Pedals in One
Normally the pickiest tremolo users at Sweetwater won't settle for anything less than the built-in tremolo on a classic Fender or Vox amp, but the JHS Kodiak tremolo pedal with tap tempo made us sit up and take note. Dial in your choice of four different time divisions to perfectly sync the effect along with your music. You can dial in a fast shimmer or a slow, throbbing tremolo, with your choice of four different waveshapes. You can even dial the Mix down all the way and dial up the Volume to use the Kodiak pedal as a boost. If your guitar tone relies on tremolo, then you'll be well served with the JHS Kodiak tremolo on your pedalboard.

Ready for external control too
On the side of the Kodiak pedal, you'll find an input for external control over the speed of the tremolo effect. You can use an external tap switch if you need to place tap tempo control away from the Kodiak — just select TAP via the selector switch near the control input. Or attach an expression pedal and select EXP for foot control over the tremolo speed.
