The Roland RE-201 has gained status as a legendarily tape delay unit that started being manufactured in the mid 70s' and stayed in production till 1990. They're a tad difficult to date as the serials don't necessarily link them to specific years. Based on some decoder sites it was produced sometime between the late 1970s' & early 80s'.
The RE-201 sounds amazing for those who haven't had the chance to try one. It's warm & "real" sounding. When compared to most delay pedals it's truly night & day in regards to the difference. (With some exceptions!) Overall it's a wonderful piece of gear to have around in the studio or live setting.
- 3 Inputs with independent volumes (x2 Mic, x1 Instrument)
- Mode Selection determines if Echo, Echo + Reverb, or solely Reverb
- Controls: Bass, Treble, Reverb volume, Repeat Rate, Intensity, Echo Volume

The unit is a consignment piece here in the shop meaning all sales are final. It functions entirely like it should. There is some cosmetic wear & age on the tolex. Also some minor patches of scratches on the face plate. We'd consider it "very good" condition. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out and let us know.
