Yesterday Effects Slow Gear Filter FX Pedal

U.K First

The Yesterday Effects Slow Gear is a stunningly faithful recreation of one of the rarest pedals ever made, the BOSS SG-1, a Japanese built cult classic introduced in 1979. Revered for its smooth, organic automatic volume swells, the Slow Gear cuts your pick attack, just like the original, with the pedal’s Sensitivity control that sets the input threshold while the Attack knob determines how fast the volume fades in. 

Yesterday Effects takes the design even further with a three-way attack toggle, offering multiple swell speeds to perfectly match your playing dynamics. Inside, you’ll find genuine Toshiba TA7504P IC chips, the same components used in the original BOSS units, delivering that unmistakably smooth and musical response.

Run a compressor or overdrive before the Slow Gear to stabilise your input signal, or place a delay or reverb after it to create cinematic, reversed, or organ like swells. It’s a tone shaper, an ambient tool, and a creative spark, all in one beautifully built, affordable pedal.

Used by icons like Billy Corgan, Marty Friedman, and Robbie Robertson, the Yesterday Effects Slow Gear lets modern tone hunters experience one of the most elusive vintage circuits ever made.  Reborn, reimagined, and ready for your board.
