Found this at a pawn shop. I don't know if mine is in proper working order or not, but when I tested it I was hooked. Just hitting strings at random on a guitar in the pawn shop gave me some amazing distorted sounds. You have the choice of flange, chorus, double, and echo. Further adjustments are speed, width, delay, feedback and hold. The 1900 has just under two seconds of delay and hold time, there are 3.6 and 7.6 versions out there too.

Even though the hold is only 1900ms, you can get a lot out of it bouncing between the flange-echo, as well as manipulating the speed and width. Because it's a rack effect there's more input / outputs. The back has normal input, as well as hold trigger, and delay kill to mute. Outputs on mine at least are out, phase out for stereo and dry out so that you can run a clean signal to other effects. There is also input volume, output volume and dry/wet mix. I'm definitely keeping an eye out for the other versions.
Good Points: Multiple choices and hold can keep you busy. Old rack mount effect seems to equal cheap price.
Bad Points:
Price Paid: US$35.00
Purchased At: Pawn Shop
