Can't afford a vintage Space Echo?

    Boss have announced a new Space Echo RE-20 pedal.

    I'm really rather excited by this, since my favourite guitar slinger Brian Setzer uses one of the auld space echos. This one's going on the list.

    Just buy a DMM for a similar price!!! Different beast but it'll sound great and hold its value :)

    i'd be willing to stake a considerable sum of money that my 301 chorus echo will piss on this from a great height...

    You miss the point... I can't afford a real one! Don't rain on my parade. With pee.

    got mine for €350 in cork about two years ago,they can be had if you keep your eyes peeled!
    surely this thing will retail for around €250ish anyway yeah?
    save up and get a real one!

    Yeah but if I get a real one I'll have to worry about the tape heads going foowah when I'm in the middle of ripping it up on stage.

    It remains to be seen what these things will retail at. It couldn't be as high as 250, could it?! It's Boss, not flippin' Fulltone.

    Given the design I'd say it'll be close enough to the RRP of the loopstation - Why not give the Line 6 echo park a go, quite a decent tape emulation on that from what I remember.
