Classic Flanger Guitar Pedal, AKLOT Electric Effects Pedals Mini Single Type DC 9V True Bypass

This is an excellent low-cost flanger. I have a lot of pedals, but this is my first flanger because I don't use this effect too much, and my amp already has a built-in flanger effect that gets me by when I need it. Still, I wanted to add one to my pedal board, and knowing it wouldn't get a lot of play I didn't want to spend a lot. Wow, was I surprised! This little pedal has a lot of range, and you can get pretty much all the classic flanger sounds, from barely perceptible to a deep-rumbling-jet-engine-in-a-tube, especially when you drive it with a good fuzz or distortion pedal. Very impressive for the price, and for an "introduction" to flangers if you don't use them very often. I'm so happy with this little thing that I almost always have it on now any time the distortion or fuzz is on. Also, there is zero switch pop, if you were wondering, and it's pretty silent when there is no signal present. 5 Stars!

I had never heard of AKLOT before and decided to try out the Flanger. It is the size of most micro pedals and construction is solid. Nice and sturdy on/off switch but you don't have to stomp on it to activate it, which is nice. The sound dials in a nice psychedelic flange and I was able to get most sounds that I was looking for from this small pedal. For the money ($20), it allowed me to experiment with adding a dedicated flanger pedal and I am happy that I gave this one a try. I would be curious to try the AKLOT Fuzz.

This is a pretty great flanger! I was on the fence about whether I even needed (or wanted) a flanger but am stoked on this pedal. It's 1/4 the price and 1/2 the size of many of the other flangers but does everything they can do.

The Aklot Classic Flanger is a great alternative to the expensive flangers out there. It sounds great, and its compact design fits well with my other pedals. Amazon also gave me a deal on its already low price so it is hard to complain about this product. But they asked me for a review and heres what happened. I wanted to get a flanger for the performances I was playing over the summer so a few weeks prior to the shows, I ordered from Aklot. Extra time for returns for what ever reason. By the time it arrived, the package and the foot switch were damaged. The pedal would not turn off. I contacted Aklot customer service and they responded wanting to know the order number. I sent it, waiting almost a month for the response, 3 times. After the 2nd non-response I tried to replace the footswitch myself, trying to make it work for the gigs, but that didn't fix it. By now I'd actually done all my festival performances and I never got to use the pedal live. So i'm bummed about that. I decided to message their social media and I actually got a response from someone that sounded like they could actually help me and they responded with an apology. Then another month after that customer service chimed back in and asked me for my location to send out a replacement. Had I physically mailed the company back and forth, the correspondence would have been faster. But in the end... *They sent me a working pedal. And thats all I needed.

The controls are very versatile. You can run it way down to the point that you have a very simple effective chorus, or run it wide open for some craziness. Sadly everywhere I have tried to use it. I get 60 cycle home from this device. It’s the only device on my board with this issue. You could probably ignore some of the noise live, but in general, it’s a distraction, and I have quit using it for anything but tinkering around the house. It’s worth the price, but it’s not really what I was looking for.

This thing sounds great! Don’t let the price keep you looking elsewhere. This is as good as $200 boutique pedals.

Controls are easy to access, sturdy construction, sounds great. Definitely have to have a power supply. A 9 volt battery won't fit in these nano pedals! Great value for the price.

I wanted a decent flanger to pair with my Phase 90 without spending a lot and this thing delivered. It has a wide range of tones and it took me a while to dial in something i liked, but once I did, I was able to nail the classic "house burning down" tone. So far only issues (and they aren't big issues at all) is that the little knobs do seem to be the most fragile part of this thing, which is otherwise built pretty solid. Also, the true bypass switch makes a very pronounced "pop" when I turn it on. Not a huge problem though, as several of my true bypass pedals make some sort of click or pop when engaged and it's not even noticeable when you're in the middle of playing. Overall, it's a reliable little flange that delivers that "classic" tone and it pairs really well with my dirt pedals without coloring the sound too much.
