After four years from his launch, being awarded and used by some of the most
important musicians in live shows and in their records such as Steve Lukather,
Nick Mason and Saucerful of Secrets, Alan Parsons, Motorhead, Skunk
Anansie, Bon Jovi, PJ Harvey, and many, many others, it was the time for an
update to our beloved Echosex making the most advanced and sonically
perfect Echosex yet. !
The NEW Echosex 3°!!
The NEW Echosex 3° reproduces a single Head of the vintage Binson Echorec
but with the ability to move that head to change the delay time like a modern
delay with the same vintage sound!, Gurus has improved the preamp section
which runs at 262Volts (Just like the vintage Binson!) this makes for huge
headroom, results in accentuating the harmonics. This improved input section
is now impossible to saturate even with strongest signals from powerful
humbuckers, active basses, Fx loops or Keyboards/Synths… The tone is
pristine and dynamic, Gone is the “hiss” found in longer delay time settings
however there's no loss of the “dark” character of the vintage “Tape” or
“Magnetic-Drum” echo units.!
True bypass with golden pin relay, the unit is super quiet with no perceptible
noise Plus the slightly smaller box and new “top jack” configuration will make
for an easy fit into any pedalboard.!

of the Echosex perfectly in sync with the bpm you tapped.!
-
The AGE of DAMAGE mimic the behavior of the wearing out of the
mechanical parts of a worned vintage Binson unit with the rubber wheel
pushed against the spinning disc very worned. This produced a different
effect on the sound depending of the status (age of damage..) going from a
nice modulation (from 0 to 12h of the control) to a psychedelic modulated
pitch shifting (from 12h to max of the control).
