PRODUCT INFORMATION

Roland SRE-555 Chorus Echo for sale complete with rack drawer, serviced and warrantied by us.

Japanese 100v model.

This unit is super clean - rare to find one as good as this.

Supplied serviced and sounding superb - covered by our one year warranty and lifetime service support.

The RE-501 and SRE-555 were the final evolution of Roland's tape echo tech - high fidelity with fantastic chorus and sound on sound - read more about the different Roland models here. Overhauled and running well. This machine has been given our “standard” full overhaul, plus adjusted for self-oscillation (Roland removed it from this model). In addition to our standard service, recapping and set up, this includes:

One of our new tapes made from the same formula as Roland RT-1L,

One of our pinch rollers - more info to come about these, but essentially it's an original pinch roller with a new bearing and new rubber - time consuming to produce, but only the best will give the best long term performance,

Heads re-lapped to bring performance to better-than Roland factory spec - they are now more even and run at low head gain (so you have the maximum amount of headroom available),

Head mountings modified to allow more precise adjustment and alignment,

Power supply overhauled, tantalum caps replaced and other recapping as required,

Motor serviced or rebuilt as required.

Every machine is also tested by a musician (test equipment: their ears!) before shipping. Every one is supplied with 12 month warranty and ongoing service support.

======

REPLACEMENT TAPES: We recently worked out what formula Roland used for RT-1L loops and published the information. Fitting any tapes other than those from us (or Echo Fix) may invalidate the warranty on our machines. Limited stocks of our replacement loops are available now. We’ve written more about our journeys in tape, which replacement loops to use in your Roland echo, not to mention the misinformation and poor quality tapes that seem to fill the internet.

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 from pots/switches can occur when not used for longer periods of time – this can be cleared with use.

Condition

In excellent condition overall with only a few signs of age and usage. Some minor marks on the faceplate and areas where the print has worn slightly. Tape tray will be fully cleaned and serviced before shipping. Please see photos or get in touch if you require more information.

Voltage Information

100v unit - will require a step down transformer for UK/EU use

Tax

Thank you @soundgasltd, shes a beaut...

If not a new language, then at least a very challenging, old dialect that will take me some time to assimilate. I've been waiting a long time for the challenge. Thank you @soundgasltd, she's a beaut..and noboy prepares and packs like you fine folks.
