- Hi, this is Kyle De Andre here.
I'm excited to introduce Fender's Tread-light pedal series,
which includes two models,
the tread-light wall and the tread-light volume pedal.
Staples of any pedal board,
utility pedals that can be used
in so many different situations.
The wall for that classic frequency sweep effect and volume,
which allows you to do volume swells
or level changes hands free,
and can also be used as an expression pedal.
All new circuits in housing designs,
along with a few other features
that give you complete control of your tone.
Both features are switchable under under tread-light LED,
so you can see it on stage under any light.
The chassis and tread-light are crafted
from lightweight anodized aluminum,
and they have top mounted jacks,
which can be convenient for placing the pedal
on a pedal board and both are analog designs.
All right, let's take a look at the wall first.
It has an adjustable three-way frequency selector
and switchable buffer mode.
If it's the first in the line of many pedals
with the pedal and buffer mode,
it can help prevent loss in signal and retain presence.
I'm using a tone master deluxe reverb blonde for this demo,
we'll start off with some clean tones
and then we'll add in some drive.

Now over to the volume pedal.
I'm plugged into the volume pedal first
and then into a drive pedal,
so you can hear how it gets along with the distortion.

Another way to use the pedal is after any game pedals
or in an amps affects loop,
which places the pedal after any gain stages
to control your overall output level.
I moved the fender pugilist distortion
before the volume pedal
and added a reverb pedal afterwards.

And just to show you how it works is an expression pedal,
I've added in the fender pinwheel rotary speaker pedal.
With that pedal, I can control the rate of the effect.
So let's check that out.
