Product Description

Fostex 3180 reverb for sale. It's been a while since we had one of these uncommon racks. The reverb is great, the lovely overdrive is a bonus.

Great spring reverb sound - fared very well in our testing for Tony's Premier Guitar "Lords of the Springs" article. Will also give some useful overdriven distortion; not as full-bodied/gnarly as the Hawk units.
These have some nice touches in the design with 24ms of pre-delay using an internal BBD, and a 200hz high-pass. Described by one of our customers as "spatially convincing", adding that "you can really places sources in the stereo field when sending off 2 sixes, to match your desk panning."

Inputs can be mixed to allow mono signal in to drive both tanks.

Listen to the guitar demo we did for that article (not the unit for sale!), plus you can hear another with beats below.

Condition

In good cosmetic condition with oxidation spotting and other signs of age to the face. There are no rack ears on this unit. One knob cap is missing. Please see photos or get in touch if you require more information on condition.

Voltage Information

100v Japanese model - it will run on North American mains 115/120v without a transformer (we run all our tests using 120v power); however, a step-down transformer is recommended for extended use. A step-down transformer is required in the UK/EU. We do not recommend using cheap generic Chinese mains transformers and can supply a high quality UK-made unit if required.

Tax

For sales in UK the price will include 20% VAT. Buyers elsewhere may incur VAT or other local taxes on import.
