EarthQuaker Devices Ghost Echo Reverb Pedal

Our Take:

The Ghost Echo Pedal from EarthQuaker Devices is sure to send shivers down your spine with its beautiful analog/digital spring reverb emulation. Capable of producing up to 150ms of pre-delay, the Ghost Echo can provide everything from a cavernous echo-o-o to an in-your-face slapback, all adjustable via the Attack, Depth, and Dwell knobs. The Ghost Echo is a welcome haunt.

EarthQuaker's Take:

The Ghost Echo is our spooky take on the haunted amp-top spring reverberation units of yesteryear. This creepy analog/digital spring reverb emulation machine boasts a terrifying 30ms – 150ms of pre-delay, controllable via the “Attack” knob, for everything from a quick rockabilly slapback, to viscous pools of ectoplasmic reverberations. When playing staccato, you’ll hear the tortured trails of the reverb, resulting in more of a slapback, or echo sound. Legato playing will reveal a massive ambient “depth” that fattens up the sound – and look out it’s right behind you! The Dwell knob adjusts the length of the delay that will go into self-oscillation at 3 O'clock, and the Depth knob mixes the wet signal with the dry, and anything after Noon is boosted.
