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.

There are currently no operational issues with this machine, but please be aware that these units require looking after and that regular use and maintenance are key to keeping this in good working order.

Some crackle is always possible from pots/switches when not used for a while – this can be cleared with use.

Condition

Excellent with only minor signs of age to the face. The case is clean with some marks and dings to the tolex. Internally, this unit is clean with some oxidation to the chromed surfaces. Please see photos or get in touch if you require more information.

Voltage Information

100v Japanese model. For customers on 220/240v supplies we will supply a high quality step-down transformer free of charge with your purchase - let us know if this is not required. On North American mains (115/120v supplies) this unit will run without a transformer (we run all our tests using 120v power); however, a step-down transformer is recommended for extended use. We do not recommend using cheap, generic Chinese mains transformers - please ask if you have any questions about powering this unit.
