The Caroline Guitar Pedals always come out on top. This is New is in stock and ready to post out to you, with fast, reliable delivery straight to your door. For more New Guitar Pedals options, read on for full specifications, demos, and secure online ordering.

Here’s what Caroline Guitar Company say:

We are proud to present to you the Twentieth Century’s delay pedal of the future…the Caroline KILOBYTE 2000! Based on our original KilobyteTM delay from 2013, described by our customers as their “gateway drug to boutique” because there was nothing else out there quite like it.

While the sound is still familiar and beautiful, the features have been expanded from the original and include special edition mods offered to our MEGABYTE release from 2020.

Key Features

  • Delay time up to one full second.
  • Trails bypass and tap tempo control.
  • A new sharpness control lets the user set the preamp’s gain range and its voicing from “bark” to “bite”
  • A havoc control adjusts the intensity of the runaway effect when held down.
  • An external FX loop allows you to put other effects just on the repeats of the delay, or to get a 100% wet signal for other applications.

We deliberately compromised the dynamic range and frequency response to be different not only from other digital delays of the era, but also from other popular devices that used the PT-2399 “karaoke echo” chip.

We didn’t smother it to make it sound “analog”, but we also didn’t try to clean it up. In fact, with a dedicated drive preamp just for the wet side, we wanted players to clip the repeater circuit and make it even nastier.

Stuff About Guitar Pedals

Guitar pedals are compact effects units that shape and enhance a guitar’s sound, sitting between the instrument and the amplifier. They include gain pedals like overdrive and distortion, modulation effects such as chorus and tremolo, time-based effects like delay and reverb, and essential utilities including tuners, compressors and loopers. Understanding basic things such as pedal type, signal order, power requirements and intended use helps players choose pedals that suit their style, setup and playing environment.

The Important stuff

Delay. Pedal — Pedals are the tools that let you shape, colour and transform your sound, from subtle tone enhancement to bold, creative effects. Whether you are adding grit, space, movement or control, a pedal becomes part of your playing rather than just an add-on. Exploring different pedals is about discovering what responds to your touch and helps your sound feel more like your own.. Tap.
