Reviews

Sybth sounds but more responsive
The Swello has been great! I love the sustain is provides to single notes but still allows chords to be clear not muddy. Great for ballads, jazz and blues. It's helping my shted a bit to, mostly clean set shred, no need for distortion. Highly recommend l!
Swello!!!
Really fun pedal with so many options….strings, cello, and my favorite, pedal steel! Hours of fun, tracks well, sounds great. Built well and tiny footprint. Great addition to the pedalboard!

Super cool!
Love it!!! Bought the "Attack Decay" a few months back in order to do what this pedal does, and this one does it way better in my opinion. 10/10. Have since sold the attack decay

What Fun!
With the EHX Pico Swello you can easily dial in a cello, a pedal steel guitar, or something you haven't heard before. I don't have the attention span for a deep learning curve, so i am thrilled that finding these sounds is incredibly easy. Listen to the demos on Youtube or Bollinger's in Premier Guitar. You'll want pedal.
