Vanborn Vintage Guitars Presents …
a RARE 2014 McCaffrey Audio ‘46 Tremolo
Love the trem on your Fender-style amp? Dial in the “Stock” setting on the mini toggle. Grooving to the chop of a Vox AC-style amplifier tremolo? Switch to “Rod”. Now it’s all in one box. Dig it?!
This is unit #140, handbuilt in 2014 by Ryan McCaffrey, just before the RJM Effects cease & desist — a true boutique piece with historical significance for collectors and tone enthusiasts.
The ‘46 Tremolo delivers wavy, creamy, helicopter-style vintage vibes — an all-analog pedal that brings the classic pulse of 1940s tube-amp tremolo to your pedalboard. From subtle shimmer to deep, throbbing pulses, the Depth and Speed controls let you dial your groove exactly how you like it.
🎛 Foot-Friendly Design
The staggered knob height isn’t just for looks — it’s designed for real-time foot adjustments during performance. You can tweak Depth or Speed with your toe while playing, without missing a beat, making this pedal perfect for live gigging or expressive studio work.
Rugged, boutique‑crafted, and loaded with old-school charm, the ‘46 Tremolo is a pedal every tone-curious guitarist will want to explore.
