Two-piece set of Guyatone Micro Series pedals – increasingly rare, especially in original condition.

This listing features a Japan-made Guyatone HR2 Hard Rocker and VT2 Vintage Tremolo from the Micro Series, representing two different eras of Japanese compact effects.

The HR2 is estimated to date from around 1989 (based on internal component date codes), while the VT2 was most likely produced between late 1994 and early 1995.

Both pedals have been carefully cleaned, inspected, and fully tested. They remain completely original, with no replaced electronic components.

The HR2 delivers a thick, powerful late-1980s distortion character, while the VT2 provides a smooth and musical tremolo typical of mid-1990s analog compact effects.

Condition: Very Good

Both pedals are in very good condition for their age, with minor scratches and signs of use.

They have been fully cleaned and carefully inspected.

Tested and confirmed working properly with both a 9V battery and an AC adapter.

Operation is very good on both pedals.

No noticeable scratchiness or functional issues during testing.

HR2:
Particularly well preserved compared to typical units from this period.
Bottom rubber enclosure grommets are intact and show no deterioration.

VT2:
Bottom rubber enclosure grommets show age-related cracking, which is common for Micro Series units and does not affect functionality.
