Korg SE-500 Stage Echo for sale in excellent working order.
NOTE: This machine is working, but awaiting a full service. It will ship within 20 working days of purchase.
The Korg Stage Echoes aren’t as well-known as the Roland Space Echo, but the quality is up there with our favourite tape delays for both sound and functionality. Both models have great-sounding preamps, and the SE-500 in particular is an uncommon and extremely interesting echo with CV control and the very long delay setting. They don’t come round often so don’t sleep if you want one.
