Dunlop EP103 Echoplex Delay Guitar Effects Pedal

Product Information

The EP103 offers the same echo effects and controls as the original EP-3 Echoplex in a compact pedal format that’s the size of a Phase 90, plus a few new features such as an Age mode, selectable stereo or mono modes, an optional tap tempo control, and more. All that’s missing is the sound-on-sound feature, but that’s what loopers are for. This article is about the sound effect machine. For the music venue in Los Angeles, see Echoplex (venue).

Catalinbread's Belle Epoch Deluxe is perhaps the most highly-regarded Echoplex-style pedal out there. With a control-set that is very authentic to the dials found on original units, the thoughtful circuitry within the Belle Epoch Deluxe somehow replicates the distinctive repeats of the EP-3, and produces theunusual effects that couldbe attained when making drastic setting changes. All of that, without any real tape!

The Echoplex EP-3 tape echo unit is famous for its deliciously warm, organic modulation and sweet musical voice—a key component to some of the most iconic guitar tones from the '70s onward. The original EP-3 units, however, are expensive, temperamental, and larger than a VCR. The Echoplex Preamp runs on standard 9-volt power and contains power management circuitry to guarantee constant headroom performance throughout the normal life of a 9-volt battery. With a heavy-duty Phase 90-sized housing, a replica EP-3 knob, true bypass switching and a status LED, the Echoplex Preamp is built to take a beating on the roadso you can leave your fragile vintage piece at home.
