Stereo Tremolo Info
With its warm analog circuitry and lush tremolo sound, the Dunlop TS-1 set the standard for tremolo pedals for over a decade. The MXR M159 Tremolo keeps all the effects and controls of the original—but in a smaller, pedalboard-friendly size. Its 18 volt operation provides rich and vibrant sound with low noise due to its high headroom. With the versatile input/output options the M159 can produce hypnotic, pulsing mono tremolo through a single amp or ping-ponged from one amp to another in stereo mode for a huge, spacious tone.
Power: Dunlop ECB004 AC Adapter or Two 9 volt batteries

The Stereo Tremolo FAQs
Q: Can I power my pedal with a different voltage?
A: All Dunlop/MXR pedals should only be powered with the recommended voltage.
Q: Does my pedal have a true bypass?
A: Please refer to our 'True Bypass' article on our Dunlop Blog for an up-to-date list of our pedals which contain true bypass.
Q: My pedal works in bypass, but there is no signal when it’s turned on.
A: Check to ensure that your adapter or battery have the correct voltage and/or polarity. Ensure that both cables are plugged into the correct input/output jacks.
Q: Why is there a volume drop/boost when I turn on my pedal?
A: There is a possible impedance mismatch with other pedals in your effects loop. Isolate and remove the pedal from the loop to see if this still occurs.
Q: Can you repair my vintage pedal?
A: It depends on which pedal and how it has failed. Please contact our Technical Support Department as this is a case by case matter.
Q: Can I adjust the internal trim pots?
A: Not unless it is stated in the User Manual.
Q: Can I purchase an empty pedal housing?
A: Unfortunately, we do not sell our raw pedal housings.
Q: My pedal may not be working correctly. What should I do?
A: First, check the brand’s FAQ page (MXR, Way Huge, etc.) to see if the issue has already been addressed there.
Q: Will a certain pedal sound good on bass?
A: Whether or not a pedal sounds good with bass is subjective to each player. Our MXR Bass Innovations pedals are designed specifically for bass, so look to them first. In our Dunlop Electronics catalogue, we identify several pedals that weren’t made specifically for bass but sound just as good with it as they do with guitar.
These include:
-MXR M101 Phase 90
-MXR M152 Micro Flanger
-MXR M107 Phase 100
