Classic Vintage Echoplex Character & Tone!!!

Echoplex
EP-3
Tape Echo


Up for consideration is a vintage Echoplex EP-3 tape echo and case w/lid, the 1970s solid-state version of the classic tube powered Echoplex from the 60s. This is a great sounding unit, with all the vibe and tone that have made these highly desirable still today, with that classic 1970s mojo. On the vintage market the prices for these units can get scary high, but here is a great opportunity to get a working unit for a modest price!!!

CLASSIC VINTAGE SOUND
EP-3's have a great vintage echoplex character and tone that imparts a smoothness and musicality to your tracks, has a unique sound, and is so much fun to play. This unit works fine for the basic echo function as well as sound on sound, with the following quirks: 1) Echo volume works fine, but when you crank it all the way towards 10, the dry signal drops out, and you get echo only (not sure if that is a "design feature" or a quirk); also the sustain knob does add additonal echo repeats, but not very many and not very loud. The first one is normal, and the others tend to drop off pretty quickly and the unit will not do the ususally unwanted echo feedback.
