The Electro-Harmonix Slap-Back Echo takes a 1970s-era EHX rarity and reissues it in a convenient pico-sized stompbox. Armed with analog bucket brigade circuitry, this pedal produces everything from subtle doubling to Sun Records-style slapback. The Slap-Back Echo includes a 3-way Time switch with 45ms, 65ms, and 100ms settings, along with a Blend knob for dialing in your mix of the wet and dry signal. You also get a Gain knob that supplies you up to +20dB of boost. Complete with vintage-inspired graphics, this analog delay pedal boasts true-bypass switching and comes with a 9V power supply. Whether you're dreaming of intense bathroom reflections or you want to get your rockabilly on, you'll love the distinct flavor of EHX's Slap-Back Echo.
Pint sized and loaded with modern enhancements
The Slap-Back Echo takes cues from its 1970s namesake, but loads it with cool modern updates. For starters, a pedalboard-friendly, pico-sized housing replaces the original pedal's cumbersome, vintage-style enclosure. The modern Slap-Back Echo retains its predecessor's Blend knob, which mixes your dry signal and your affected signal from 100% dry to 100% echo. The modern stompbox eschews the original's Filter switch, replacing it with a 3-way Time switch similar to that found on a late-'70s EXH Full Double Tracking Effect pedal, with 45ms, 65ms, and 100ms settings. Here at Sweetwater, one of our favorite new features on the modern Slap-Back Echo is the Gain knob, which provides you with a boost of up to +20dB.?

The late 1970s rarity Electro-Harmonix Slap-Back Echo pedal is reissued with modern updates and a Pico footprint!
The 50s era 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-analog design of the EHX Slap-Back Echo delivers this beloved classic sound and more in a Pico-sized pedalboard-friendly package. With three delay time settings and up to +20dB of boost, the Slap-Back Echo can achieve subtle doubling effects to intense bathroom reflections all with the distinct flavor 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.
