From the vendor
The E.P.3.0 is our take on the Echoplex EP-3 Pre-Amp.
Designed to emulate the bypass mode of the EP-3, it’s a nice easy build for a cool pre-amp, small parts count but def a keeper.
Controls:
• Volume – This ones a little weird, it maxes at around 2 o’clock with tonal changes after this – it’s not broken..its how it is…and it just works!
• Fat (On/Off/On) goes from early EP3 models to new and also a third position for thicker.
Schematic
