Flanger
The Champion Flanger is a rare and revered analog modulation gem, a true relic from the golden age of British effects. Derived directly from the legendary Colorsound and AMP Flangers, this pedal combines deep, lush flanging with an Automatic Double Tracking (ADT) mode, unlocking a vast sonic palette. At the heart of the Champion's magic lies the venerable Philips TDA1022 bucket-brigade delay chip, delivering warm, organic modulation with a distinctly vintage character. The three-way mode switch allows you to explore automatic LFO-controlled sweeps, fixed-delay ADT for that iconic "double-tracked" sound, or manual control where you can sculpt the delay position. Powered by a beefy 18V supply, the Champion boasts impressive headroom and low noise, with a rich, harmonically complex tone that shimmers subtly in mild settings and erupts into intense, resonant jet-like sweeps when cranked. The large, heavy-duty metal enclosure is built to withstand the rigors of studio and stage, just like the Sola Sound modulation units that inspired it. While not as well-known as its Colorsound sibling, the Champion Flanger is a hidden gem prized by in-the-know players for its unique sonic character. From subtle texture to mind-bending modulation mayhem, this rare British beauty is a must-try for any guitarist seeking to expand their tonal horizons.
