Broken ones! Or for a very thrifty Leslie simulator you can request that members of the audience spin round on the spot.

Behringer, Ibanez and Danelectro?

That ibanez phaser is really nice! Can get real crazy. Like industrial sounds or dubsteppy wobbles, or just normal phaser sounds.

What sort of modulations you lookin' for, o striped one?

yeah, it's a great pedal for the money lots of flavours

Starcaster, Danelectro FAB and mini/food-named, Daphon, Biyang, Joyo, Beta Aivin. Sometimes Ibanez 5 or 7 series that flew under the radar. Guyatone minis sometimes go cheap. Old Digitech/DOD that aren't specifically desired/desirable.

I'm a bit over mod-pedaled, though, myself. Coming around to a few good multi pedals covering a lot of that ground, but that could revert.

I can't vouch for the quality, let alone for the company's (lack of) business ethics...

But that tiny Mooer mod factory is dirt cheap considering the amount of effects it can do.

I really like the Danelectro Fab Chorus, it sounds really thick/liquid, if that's what you're after. It is ultra cheap too!

BF-2!!!

Dod fx20-b, I have one real cheap.

I bought a Dod fx62 bass stereo chorus once for 17$. I thought it was really boring though.

I'll assume the OP is asking about great-sounding cheap modulation pedals...

Personally, I insist on analogue for modulation effects – and, yes, this is achievable for cheap.

I'd suggest the following (by category type)...

PHASERS
- Visual Sound (Garagetone series) Oil Can.
A great analogue phaser. I can't go on enough about this pedal. Imo it's easily better than any other inexpensive phaser - and much more expensive ones! Beats both a Phase 90 and modern EHX Small Stone. 'No point me suggesting any other phasers as nothing currently beats the Visual Sound for me.


UNIVIBE-type (i.e. real bulbs/photocells circuitry)
- Danelectro Cool Cat Vibe
- Moen Shaki Jimi
- Danelectro Chicken Salad

CHORUS
There are plenty of cheap analogue chorus pedals around nowadays. Many seem to me Boss CE-2 knockoffs by Far East brands.
- Joyo JF-37
- Biyang 'tonefancier' series CH-8 (aka GFS, aka Akai), or 'babyboom' series CH-10
- Mooer Ensemble King
Moen Holy Choir
? - Modtone (aka Belcat) ?
- DOD FX-60
- DOD FX-65
- Guyatone micro MC-3
- Danelectro Cool cat (the old, big one)
- Aria CH-5 (1980s)
- Pearl CH-02 (1980s)

FLANGER
This is a really tough one as I have had problem finding a flanger I like that's not really expensive. I'm not best placed to advise on this one. But, based on my experince of what crops up when I research into this and what I've had recommended, I'd suggest you consider:
- Boss BF-2
- Boss HF-2
- something by lesser-known 1980s Japanese brands - e.g. Pearl, Yamaha, Tokai, Aria
- Guyatone micro FL-3
- Mooer Elec Lady

TREMOLO
(Does tremolo count as a modulation effect? anyway...)
- Joyo JF-09 (optical?)
- NobelsTRX
- Visual Sound (Garagetone series) one
- Marshall Vibratrem (used)
- Danelectro Tuna Melt
- Guyatone micro VT-3

For something that covers different types modulation effects all-in-one, but aren't analogue - and probably for someone not that into modulation - consider: Marshall Regenerator; the Mooer Mod Factory, as already suggested; or one of those newish compact Zoom multi-effects pedal things

Yeah one of the new zooms is a good option, that's what I've got ATM, the phaser is kind of crappy though, others sound good
