Re: [SurfGuitar101] Delay question

Phil Kucer (surfbass7) - 05 May 2003 12:46:28

If you're talking about the Reel Echo, I have one and I really like it.
It sounds pretty good but there are 2 problems I have with it. One is
that it's a digital delay so it doesn't make the cool pitch-shift sound
when you change the delay rate. The other thing, and this goes for the
Spring King too, is that it's not a true bypass. If you don't have a
fresh battery, forget it! That's the most annoying part.
