Easy peezee japanezee, three knobs: Rate, Mix, and Repeat. Can go from subtle to echo to radical spacey sounds.
Sound Quality
:
9
My Setup:
Aria Pro II LS700 Les Paul copy with JB/Jazz humbucker setup --->
A/B Box with tuner mute ---> Boss TU-2 on tuner out ---> Modded Dunlop GCB-95 in a seperate loop ----> (main loop) Modded Boss DS-1 ---> Modded Ibanez TS9 ---> Electra 606AD ---> Modded Fender Blues Jr.
(I just can't leave my gear alone its almost all modded)
Can get that 'Shine on you crazy diamond' sound and it adds a nice touch to Hendrix and other blues. The only sound problem is when the repeat is cranked all the way up it feedbacks and becomes unusable but other than that there are no sound issues, no tone suck, no problems. The reverb on the Blues Jr. sucks so the 606AD has added a nice dimension to my sound that the reverb just couldn't do.
Reliability
:
No Opinion
Been reliable so far. Even if I have issues Electra now longer exists so I'd be SOL. But that doesn't concern me.

I play mainly blues and rock, heavily Zeppelin influenced. This is a great match for the music I play. If it were stolen or lost I would probably be hard pressed to find another one. In that instance I would get a DOD 680 or 585A performer, or look for a good deal on a AD-80. I once owned a Boss DD-3 and it sucked, had it for 4 days before taking it back to the store. I got this pedal for less than I paid for the DD-3 and side by side the DD-3 is worthless and not even worth having on my rig.
