@@liamh9814 I understand but quite honestly most of this shredding seems to be synonymous of 'look how fast I can play', as it were a competition, and musicality is relegated to a secondary role. I don't care how virtuoso a guitarist is and how many notes he or she can play per minute. Maybe, I've been unlucky because I cannot recall a single time where shredding takes place in an actual musical context. That being said, I also understand your annoyance with tone woods. I make a lot of jokes about that. And when it comes to the unhealthy obsession with vintage and shockingly expensive gear, I just let the bougie lavish their money in whatever way they want.

Not to take a single thing away from the pedal, but I'll note that there are two versions of "stereo". The Magnatone amplifiers provide a lovely similarly-subtle stereo vibrato. BUT, they use *one* LFO that countersweeps the two channels, with the two sides being reciprocals of each other; i.e., one side goes a teensy bit sharp and the other side a teensy bit flat. Last year I made myself a dual vibrato, with independent LFOs - one per side. It is SOOO lush in stereo, you just want to move in and live there. The key aspect is that the modulation is close but NOT synced. Sometimes the two outputs line up, sometimes they're opposite, and sometimes one is a little ahead of the other or behind. Dual ganged pots turn the modulation rate up and down for both sides at once, as does a dual-ganged pot for modulation depth. It is the *perceived aperiodicity* of the modulation that makes it feel so rich and lush. It creates the sense that there is a lot going on; moreso than simple countersweep. Try it out. You'll like it. And when you exclaim "Where has this been all my life?!", you can send me one.
