Electro-Harmonix Slap-Back Echo

1978 Rarity Reissued With Modern Updates and a Tiny Pico Footprint

The 50s gave birth to an iconic sound in which a single, short delay was utilized to add depth and rhythmic effect on countless recordings. The newly reissued all-analogue Electro-Harmonix Slap-Back Echo delivers the beloved '78 Slap Back's classic sound and more in a Pico-sized pedalboard-friendly package (Electro-Harmonix's smallest footprint pedal). With three delay time settings and up to +20dB of boost, the Slap-Back Echo can achieve everything from subtle doubling effects to intense bathroom reflections all with the distinct flavour of bucket-brigade (BBD) circuitry.

Housed in EHX’s Pico-sized chassis, the Slap-Back Echo features Gain and Blend knobs as well as a Time switch. The Gain knob controls the input signal before the echo circuit and also adjusts the overall volume at the output with a boost of up to +20dB. The Blend knob mixes the dry signal and the echo signal from 100% dry to 100% echo. The Time switch selects between three different delay times: 45ms, 65ms, and 100ms.

At Riffs & Licks Music, we think the Electro-Harmonix Slap-Back Echo is perfect for anyone looking for a small-footprint slap back, with that classic 70's EH sound.
