1963 Vox Echo Reverberation Unit (JMI)
1963 Vox Echo Reverberation Unit (JMI)
Brand: Vox
Sorry it's gone. We may have another in stock or on the way. Please enquire below (or check our weekly Gear Update for incoming rarities).
For sale serviced and sympathetically-restored; in stunning condition and sounding fantastic. Popularly-known as the Cliff Richard Reverb and manufactured by JMI under the Vox brand, this is an all-valve (tube) spring reverb (not an echo!).
Important note: this is a clearance item at a reduced price. It's been worked on but since then we've not had time to use it (or sell it!) so it may be that it needs some minor work to get the best out of it. It is however serviced and functional.
European buyers have the standard 14 days right of return with this item, however there is no further warranty.
JMI used four delicate ACOS phono cartridges as transducers/pickups for the spring tank; being crystal-based, these have invariably not withstood the test of time and are no longer available. Our tech has carefully installed suitable replacements and the results are stunning. Some minor out of spec components have been changed including a few of the valves - it now boasts a full complement of Mullards. Replaced valve screening cans. All other internal components are original and it is in superb cosmetic condition - there can be few other unrestored examples as good as this left in the world.
If you want to see the original Cliff Richard ad endorsing the Vox Reverb then visit the peerless Vox Showroom website - see their full Vox-Echo page here - there's also plenty more great info on this unit on their site.

"Excellent equipment, wonderful service. I fully recommend Soundgas to anyone in the vintage gear market and I will definitely be a return customer. The gear itself was exactly as advertised and in great condition."
DAVID WRENCH
“I’ve bought a number of items from Soundgas recently, and have been really impressed with their service. It takes the stress out of buying vintage gear to know it’s been properly (and faithfully) serviced or restored. Their after-sales service has also been exemplary. Highly recommended.”
TOM JOHNSTON
Fantastic. From initial contact to the product landing at my door the service provided was outstanding. Safe and secure shipping, quality serviced product.

"Finally, a company that tracks down all those brilliant curiosities that bring so much character and personality to a studio."
JOSH LLOYD-WATSON & TOM MCFARLAND - JUNGLE
“Imagine the perfect eBay.... with everything you never knew you wanted… and you can rest assured that your vintage and rare wobbly sound device will turn up on time and in one piece and possibly in even better condition that when it left the workshop. Soundgas - literally amazing."
