New Boss RE20 Space Echo Pedal next week!!

Hey Everyone,


Next week I will be picking up a new Boss RE20 Space Echo pedal from my local Top End Pro Music shop on Tuesday, I got them to order it in for me a couple of months or so ago, and when I went in to buy a couple of sets of 42-09 gauge strings from them for my Gold Strat, I asked them about it, they said that it had arrived, so I asked them to hold onto it for me till Tuesday, they said they would.

When I get the new pedal home I will make sure I post a pic of it here for you so you can check it out.


Okay, the Boss RE20 Space Echo pedal is a Digital re-creation of the 70's Roland RE201 Space Echo Tape Delay, but unlike the Roland RE201, the Boss RE20 is in a much more compact enclosure, it uses Digital Modelling to model all the nuances of the original Roland RE201.


Here's an interesting webpage about the Roland RE201:

Update:


Hey everyone, I finally have my new Boss RE20 Space Echo pedal here, at home, in my hands, I've just taken it out of the box for a quick look and packed it up in it's box again, reason being is that I said I would do a review of it so I want to take some unboxing pics which I'm going to include in the review, the review is going to be posted in the review section.

Look forward to it mate

How will we know that you're not simply taking pictures of you putting it back in its box, but reversing the order of the photos? ;)

Valid point Simon, I think we need video footage (including some liquid being poured from a cup so we know the video isn't being played backward) :D

I guess I could take a pic of the insides but I'm a bit concerned about voiding the warranty.

Okay, here's some pics for you:

I've tried the RE20 pedal out with my Gold Strat and it does sound good, much better than my Moen Pretty Dolly Delay pedal.

All I need to do now is figure out how to get that Eric Johnson sound with my Gold Strat.

Nice score Doc. If you haven't guessed I'm a reverb/echo freak, been drooling over some EarthQuaker pedals recently

I've been really getting into reverb and echo a lot lately too mate, I blame that on getting into Dub Reggae music cause reverb and echo are used a lot in producing that style of music, I'm going to see if I can record a Dub Reggae demo track of the Boss RE20.

Simple, get Eric Johnson to play it. ;)

Update:

Just going to see if I can record a quick demo of my new Boss RE 20 Space Echo pedal for you guys, this will be a recording of all the mode settings on the rotary Mode Selector switch so you can hear what they sound like, I'm going to be using my LP Studio guitar plus my Ibanez TS-808 Tube Screamer pedal for a bit of overdrive, there'll be a section with both pedals bypassed, then the RE20 switched in, and then with both pedals switched in.....stay tuned.


Here we go, here's a quick demo I recorded of all the different mode settings on my Boss RE 20 Space Echo pedal, I started at the Repeat 1 setting and then went clockwise around till I got to the Reverb Only setting, and then I switched it to Repeat 2 so I could demonstrate what the "Twist" function does and sounds like....enjoy!!:

Update 2:

That last demo is going to have to be the last one I've recorded for the time being, reason why?, one of the strings on my LP Studio guitar broke and I don't have any more spares, will have to wait till Tuesday next week to buy some more.
