Nothing quite beats the sound of a real analogue delay unit, and the vintage Binson Echorec multi-head drum echo is arguably one of the most coveted of them all. Used by Pink Floyd in their legendary Pompeii performance, as well as on several recordings (including “Shine On You Crazy Diamond”, “Interstellar Overdrive” and “Echoes”), the Binson Echorec is a truly compelling device with a mythical sound. The original unit also found favour with the likes of Hank Marvin of The Shadows, and even Led Zeppelin drummer John Bonham (on “When The Levee Breaks”).

Fast-forward to 2023, and T-Rex have recreated the original unit in amazing detail — while adding a few necessary refinements for modern-day musicians. Capable of delivering magical magnetic disk echoes, the T-Rex Echorec boasts four playback heads that allow for incredible flexibility, with adjustable drum speed, balanced inputs and outputs optimised for use in the studio, a “magic eye” vacuum tube input signal level indicator, and connections for external speed adjustment and bypass.

Delay

A delay pedal records your signal and plays it back after a set time, creating echoes that can range from tight, slapback repeats to long, atmospheric trails. It’s one of the most versatile effects, used to thicken tones, add rhythmic depth, or build spacious, ambient layers. Analogue delays offer warm, decaying repeats that blend naturally with your tone, while digital units provide pristine echoes with precise control over time, feedback, and mix levels.

From classic rockabilly and tape-style echoes to modern looping and shimmer effects, delay pedals have become essential tools for shaping sound. They can make solos soar, rhythms pulse, or transform simple chord progressions into cinematic textures. Whether used subtly to add dimension or boldly to create soundscapes, a good delay pedal can completely redefine the feel and atmosphere of your music.

New

This is brand new, fresh in, and a UK warranty is included. New Gear always comes from trusted UK music retailers.

Overdrive

Like a golden layer of melted cheese — warm, gooey, and just put it all over. It adds just the right amount of richness and grit, turning a clean signal into something smooth and savoury. Designed to mimic the natural breakup of a tube amp pushed to its sweet spot, overdrive delivers the flavour of classic rock and blues in every bite. From creamy mid-gain warmth to crisp edge-of-breakup sparkle, it’s the comfort food of guitar tone — simple, satisfying, and endlessly versatile. Whether it’s a mild crunch or a full-bodied roar, overdrive is where good taste begins.

Speed Knob– This is your Flutter control. It's another way to control how poorly your tape echo is performing!

You can set this for a single slap back echo or turn it up for a runaway, self-oscillating or self-regenerating echoes. (Now go back and twi… read more
