Oi! Where's this argument you promised us Only joking.
Just the mention of "Copycat there. When I started, most of the Shads type bands had Watkins copycats to emulate their sounds as did I. Did anyone else on here have one of these machines at the time. As far as I remember it sounded fine although I dont know if its the many years that have since passed that makes me think this. I dont remember any other echo machines on the market then. I can remember mine cost me £38/10shillings. Got my mother to nag my father into going guaranter for me, which he was none too pleased about. Paid for itself in no time too as I was in a band with plenty of gigs.
God I feel old
