That's a nice and clean RE-201 Space Echo, Sickle!! Congrats! I bought a clean one back in '04 and am still loving it.

Mine is a RE-301 in great condish too. Don't want to get rid of it, but have it up on the block anyway. Ahhh so many delays. They do look great though... huh?

Yeah like I said I don't want to, but I have a Fulltone TTE, the RE-301, Toneczar Echoczar/Angelbaby combo, Empress Superdelay, MXR Carbon Copy Rev. 2, Wampler AnalogEcho, MoogerFooger MF-104Z (also on the block) and on the way a Skreddy Echo and a Cornish TES.

So to do some purging I am needing to make the decision which ones to sell. Naturally I am looking to the ones that are worth more $$ with decent resale potential.

Truth be told... I bought some more guitars last month and defintely need to unload a few things.

Hey, Sage, how do you like your Empress Super Delay?

I have one and think that it is an incredible piece, in diversity of function and in sound quality. The reverse mode is so trance inducing!

I am digging the Superdelay big time! I agree... the reverse echo is amazing. I'm still in the process of trying all my various delays with the rig to decide which I want to keep and combine on the board. The reverse delay alone is enough for the Superdelay to get a mighty nod in the affirmative direction.

Wow, that is an awesome looking Space Echo!
I just got a WEM Copicat MK IV, but the looks of a Space Echo or one of those Pearl Vorbit (?) tape echo's is a lot cooler... How dirty does it sound?

Totally agree with your statement. I'm down to an RE-201, a Boss DM-2, and the Super Delay (i.e. tape, bucket brigade analog, digital). Good luck trying to narrow down your delay(s) of choice. Because the Super Delay tape delay emulation is the best I've heard from a digital delay, I'm shelving my idea of a Fulltone TTE (however, I've never heard a TTE in person nor contrasted it with the SD's tape mode.)

I don't think I will ever sell my RE-201!
