Il Surf Trem della Carl Martin è un effetto di tremolo estremamente semplificato ed efficace.Con i 2 controlli è possibile regolare quanto effetto di tremolo vuoi nel tuo segnale (DEPHT) e con l'altra manopola (SPEED) la velocità del tremolo.

General Guidelines on the use of the Surf Trem: Trem(olo) is basically defined as a cyclical variation of volume controlled by a low frequency oscillator, or for us guitar players…something that makes the guitar sound oscillate between quiet and loud either quickly or slowly…..  Made famous in the 50’s and 60’s by bands like the Shadows and Dick Dale for that infamous ‘surf sound’, the Trem stuck around for many other guitar greats like Robin Trower, Hendrix and Page, right up to SRV and beyond.
The Carl Martin Surf Trem has simplified the whole effect  to 2 simple controls (just like the trem circuit on our vintage Fenders and Ampegs), Depth and Speed.  The Depth knob controls how much of the effect you want in your guitar signal, and the Speed knob obviously controls the speed of the oscillation.

Below are some examples of settings you might use, and remember, the Trem is an amplitude (volume) effect, and should therefore be placed before distortion, eq’s and delay/flangers
