Red Witch press release for the 2010 reissue

The Red Witch Medusa ChorusTrem is back! She of the swirling chorus, She of the pulsing trem…… Back after five long years and better than ever!

Due to unprecedented demand our classic ChorusTrem pedal has returned: Stereo output, Expression pedal, multiple modes - everything you remember and more!

She'll Chorus, she'll Tremolo and she'll ChorusTrem. There is only one Medusa - Hallelujah she's back!

Red Witch

A little history...

The original issue of Medusas consisted of just 74 units that were made by hand in the Red Witch workshop over three weeks in December 2004. Regarded by many as being the sweetest sounding Chorus pedal ever made, the units soon gained legendary status.

The rare appearance of an original Medusa on Ebay would incite bidding wars - sometimes selling for up to four times the original price. Exciting!

The new and improved Medusa

The reissued Medusa has a smaller, more compact housing, the same size as current Red Witch products. So you get all the tone without the real estate costs!

It features a potentiometer for the voice control, instead of the original 5-way switch - giving you almost limitless options of delicious Chorus flavor.

The Medusa vs The Empress

The sound of the Medusa's Chorus has a different flavor to that of its sister, the Empress Chorus.

Plus the reissued Medusa features the addition of two effects: Tremolo and the unique ChorusTrem.

ChorusTrem...?

ChorusTrem is a unique Medusa effect that is not offered by any other pedal on the market. ChorusTrem is when the Chorus effect and the Tremolo effect occur simultaneously and in synch... Chorus pulse at the same time as the volume shift of the Tremolo.... Or “synched amplitude and pitch modulation” for those of you who like impressing the ladies with your technical lexicon.
