A brand new, hand built replica of the magical Ibanez Soundtank EM5 delay from the late 90’s. Check my reviews, several people that have bought this had, or still have an original, and report mine captures the original sound perfectly and fixes the numerous flaws.
This often overlooked original has become a secret weapon over the past few years for such pedalboard building luminaries as Dave Phillips of LA Sound Design as his favorite “always on” delay. Originals have become hard to find, expensive, and are plastic, cheaply built and had switching reliability problems. But the sound…creamy, filtered, warm and very analog delay tones from a unique digital chip that is now out of production.
The “Magic Delay” is an exact replica of the original, including the out of production delay chip which I’ve secured a small quantity of. The only change is replacing the original, unreliable jfet switching with true bypass, fixing a major flaw. This is not in the signal path and has no effect on the sound. Plus a solid metal chassis, high quality parts and hundreds of dollars cheaper!
(Note that this pedal does not have a battery clip and must be powered from a 9VDC standard Boss style adapter, not included)
