Hank Marvin apparently used an Echoplex in the seventies and this is a great remake
Used by many others as well...

Just to say it is a single echo only .... but what a bit of kit !

Dave Robbo did the review and sound tests on the other unit which was overall a good unit especially for live work but of course the timing of the multi taps is different and not accurate enough overall... but passable enough when used live say.

Interesting, from what I have seen thus far, could this company have the capability to reproduce the Meazzi models in the same fashion . . .? ;)

An interesting article from last year on "Guitarist Magazine" about Hank's echo units, including some comments about the Echoplex : http://www.4shared.com/zip/z4ldhj_x/Man_of_Meazzi.html

The is a copy of the valve Echoplex available from Fulltone : http://www.fulltone.com/products/tube-tape-echo
Only some £ 1,200 in the UK.
