Sound Quality

I,am using different amps with the Guyatone em.78 echo chamber.
These amps are (Fender super six reverb, seymour duncan convertible, Farfisa TR 60, Ibanez IBZ-510)
I,am using different guitars (Fenders, Gibson model SG, Ibanez, valley art)
All (delay and echo) sounds are there and are highly pro.
When the repeat knob goes 8 you will have a serious alien visit...
It gives me chicken skin.
It,s a fenomenal tape echo unit.
I bought this tape echo used for 70 euro (63 dollar)
It looks brand new.
I,am a lucky man, i can sel this again for 300 euro or more.
But never change a winning team, so it stay's mine.
Blues , Jazz, Rockabilly and everything that becomes after that it's all there.

No Opinion
I never dealt whit the company but i respect them allot. They make incredible guitar fx.
Well... when i turn the speed potentiometer on 10 i discover a mechanical noise. Maybe it needs a new part or a simple lubricant.
People who make those things must be friendly.
Don't forget it is an old goodie and you never upgrade that.
It wil be repaired soon (small repair)
