Special Note on Vari-bias Tremolo

Vari-bias tremolo is a special effect that appeared in various lower-powered vintage tube ampliﬁers.

The circuitry utilizes a vacuum tube to create a pulsating oscillation that has a very musical or

rhythmic beat to it. This oscillating signal is then fed to the cathode circuitry of a separate tube

stage. This interaction effectively turns the functionality of this tube on and off. What we hear and

feel is the effect of our sound pulsing on and off in a very organic, or rich manner.

Unique Implementation of the Tremolo Effect

The variable bias tremolo effect is often associated with controls that adjust the intensity, speed and

even the on/off status of the effect. While it is fairly common to see stomp-box tremolo pedals with

two speeds, we believe the American Dream MKII marks the ﬁrst vacuum tube ampliﬁer to imple-

ment two separate, foot-switchable speed controls for an unmatched level of tone and versatility.

We hope you enjoy our modern implementation of this rich vacuum tube effect.
