Dunlop Echoplex Preamp

When the Echoplex EP-3 came out, guitar players were hooked by the way its preamp sweetened up their sound. Soon, the EP-3 made its way onto the records of top guitar players-from Jimmy Page to Eddie Van Halen and Eric Johnson – as much for its tone conditioning ability as its tape echo effect. Now you can put the EP-3’s legendary secret sauce right on your pedalboard. Dunlop’s EP101 Echoplex Preamp recreates the magic of the EP-3’s front end, featuring a Field-effect Transistor (FET) just like the original and following the exact same signal path. The Gain control allows you to boost your signal by up to +11 dB with light asymmetrical clipping at higher settings for a bit of nice organic grit.
