Echoplex preamp pedals?

Post by CBGB »

Anyone have any of the Echoplex preamp pedals?

ClinchFX EP Pre: http://www.clinchfx.com/ep-pre

Badgerplex Vintage: http://www.badgereffects.com/badgerplex.html

The Xotic EP Booster: http://www.xotic.us/effects/ep_booster/

IF so, which one do you like best?
Also, are there any others like that out there?

Intriguing. I didn't know about these. My Echoplex always has quite a volume drop, but I do love the tone.

The ClinchFX EP PRe is really good. He also does one now with a boost built into it.
I love the sound of my Echoplex preamp before the amp, but I hate the sound of delay into an overdriven amp. What to do? Put the EPPre in front and the Echoplex in the loop.
Awesome.
Good deals done with all these guys

I do really like the echo platter model on my M-13 with feedback turned all the way down and drive and mix turned all the way up in fact Its almost always on.

The Lumpy 73 boost is supposed to be a design based on the sound of an Echoplex preamp into a Plexi.

Echoplex in the loop does sound pretty damn good now that you mention it. Takes away some of that harsh percussive note attack.
