SSTE Solid State Tape Echo
Prepare to be transported back in time with the Fulltone SSTE Solid State Tape Echo – a modern take on the legendary Echoplex EP-3 that defined the golden age of rock guitar. This handcrafted marvel captures the coveted tone and feel that made the EP-3 a staple for virtuosos like Jimmy Page, Brian May, and Steve Stevens. The secret lies in Fulltone's obsession with the EP-3's iconic JFET preamp, which they've painstakingly recreated to deliver that same rich, articulate sound – minus the hum and hassle of the original. Dial in the "EP-3 mode" for the perfect balance of bass and treble that cuts through a thunderous Marshall stack, or switch to "Full mode" for a pristine, uncolored delay. But the SSTE is no one-trick pony. Its dual tape speeds and movable playback head allow you to conjure everything from slapback rockabilly to self-oscillating, Page-esque swells. Separate volume controls for your instrument and the delay ensure seamless blending, while the relay-activated footswitch keeps your sound pristine, even with long cable runs. Whether you're chasing vintage vibes or seeking a bulletproof modern alternative, the Fulltone SSTE Solid State Tape Echo is a must-have for any serious guitarist. Prepare to unlock a new dimension of expressive, dynamic delay that will have your audience wondering, "How did they do that?"
