Title of Instrument: ROLAND RE-201 SPACE ECHO Price Paid / Price New: $475/? Year Manufactured: 1973 Specs: The Roland Space Echo has ten knobs. Three knobs control the volume of their corresponding 1/4" input (1 guitar, 2 vocals). Two knobs serve as a simple bass and treble EQ for the echo's tone. One knob is a volume for the reverb feature. The biggest knob lets you select the type of delay (delay-type is related to which of the tape-heads are turned on for recording) . The final three knobs are tape speed, feedback, and echo volume. There is also a three-position switch that lets you select a high, medium, or low output and a bypass switch (which you won't need if you use the footswitch) Sound: 10/5 This thing is AMAAAAAZING!!!! Even when bypassed it adds a beautifully warm element to your sound. I could not ask for a more perfect tape delay. All the settings are wonderful, from the quirky to astral travel, You can find almost any sound (except sterile). Instrument Quality: 4/5 I bought mine used, so there was some minor wear in the tolex. However, the protective plastic was still on the knobs. The quality of the insides are great. I will expect change the tape occasionally and clean the heads on a regular basis. Overall, very sturdy. Playbility: 10/5 The most musical effect I have ever used! Not a bad sound in the box. Overall Value: I would have paid more for it.
