Guitarists like Jimmy Page used the Maestro Echoplex Bandecho in the early 1970s, but not only for echo effects but also as boosters. The preamplifier of the transistor Echoplex Bandechos is also active in the bypass mode, the downstream amp can be "blown" properly. The MXR EP101 Echoplex Preamp Pedal is an exact replica of the old original circuit. The Echoplex Preamp is not a neutral clean booster!! It colours the sound, and that is just the special thing. The sound is round and pleasant with silky highs.
