regrettably no longer able to ship to customers located within the EU or Northern Ireland, due to new GPSR regulations which make it prohibitively expensive for small businesses to operate in the zone.
UPDATE 2 – As of 10th April 2025, we are still shipping to the USA. Please note that due to the volatile political situation relating to tariffs, we may have to cease offering shipping here at short notice.

It is recommended that items should be returned using a trackable shipping service in case the item goes missing en route.
The Greenhouse Effects Roots Echo is a superb value analogue-style delay. Its delay time of up to 500ms takes you from straightforward slapback to ambient soundtracks with a near-endless trail of warm, lush repeats.
Back-to-basics functionality makes the Roots Echo a dream to use, but it gives a nod to the future with its innovative switching...
The Roots Echo features DSS (Dual Switching System), which allows you to hold down the footswitch to activate the self-oscillation mode for some great ambient sounds. Release the footswitch and the self-oscillations gradually die out.
The Delay control adjusts the delay time, up to 500ms.
The Regen control adjusts the number of times your original signal is repeated. Each repeat degrades in fidelity, just like it would with an analogue delay.
Adjust the dry to wet signal ratio with the Mix control. You can set the Mix high for a more upfront delay, or set it lower for a more subtle effect.
Greenhouse Effects pedals are hand-built by Roy
Zichri in Israel. Founded in 2004, Greenhouse Effects today boasts a range of innovative and great sounding guitar pedals topped off with eye-catching artwork.
Designed to "inspire creativity and help connect musicians to their instruments", Roy makes a point of adding plenty of features to all Greenhouse Effects pedals, such as the 3 gain stages and active EQ of the Outlier Overdrive, the modulation effects of the Deity Reverb, and the "Logos" mode of the Logos Chorus-Vibrato.
Even the stripped-back Roots series pedals have surprising features, such as the two-channel design of the Roots Fuzz.
In 2011, Dweezil Zappa - an endorsed Greenhouse Effects artist - played one of Jimi Hendrix's Stratocasters on the Tonight Show with
Alice Cooper, using Greenhouse Effects pedals.
As well as creating a successful range of his own pedals, Roy has designed PCB layouts for the likes of Darkglass Electronics, JHS and Wren & Cuff.
