PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
In excellent condition (see detailed photos) and superb working order following a full restoration by our Binson specialist.
This early 60s valve disc echo has been calibrated to our specification and is sounding superb.
Description
This is a stunning Echorec 2 – it sounds as good as a beautifully-restored valve Echorec 2 should and is up there amongst the best we’ve heard.
Naturally, the axe-slingers amongst you will be drooling over the way this machine languidly exudes classic Dave Gilmour/Pink Floyd timbres, but it also rewards mores serious abuse: feed it a hot signal from a drum machine, crank up the input gain and swoon at the rich creamy tube overdrive and filthy distortion on the repeats.
The original geloso sockets have been replaced with 1/4″ jacks but it retains the original Binson mains cable socket. Click on the photos to zoom in and see more shots.
Sounding truly superb following a full service/set up from our Binson expert and with further extensive testing/tweaking by Tony. Further information and demos follow soon – there will be some on our Instagram feed soon. Please get in touch if you need more information.

MORE INFO
Binson Echorecs have been our obsession for many years. They are amazingly engineered machines: where a tape echo’s input sound is recorded to tape, on a Binson it is recorded onto a circular spinning disc which has replay heads positioned around it.
Every Echorec we sell is the product of an accumulation of hundreds of hours spent dismantling, rebuilding, tweaking and listening to them. The distance between a “good” Binson and a truly “great” one may only be short in terms of functioning (how many people tell us they’ve got a Binson from somewhere that is “90% there…”); but in our experience they can be a world apart in terms of the time, patience and experience required to get to that ultimate goal.
