Fulltone Tube Tape Echo TTE (Matte Black Metal Finish)
There is nothing funnier than the makers of this new wave of digital and chip-based delays claiming to "sound like a tape echo." One after another they pop out the same old digital and bucket-brigade delays with a few new bells and whistles that supposedly "emulate the warble and tape head saturation of a tape echo" .... That only flies with someone who has never played a good tape echo. For those of us who know and care, there's no substitute... so settle for an approximation if you must, there's nothing wrong with that... but please spare me the rhetoric.
