No. The Fab echo is not the same. I have both and last weekend, for the fun of it, A-B'd them and a few others.
I'm hessitant to say the Fab Echo is junk, because it can give you useable slap back echo very cheaply.
But of the two (imo) the BLT simply sounds better. The Fab echo colors the sound a bit and just sounds "dirtier". If you are into Psychobilly (Frantic Flinstones, The Cramps, Hellbillys) The Fab Echo might be a better choice.
Or if slap back isn't a major part of your sound, or not used much then the Fab might work.
Personally, I'd say if I had to buy only one, I'd get a Blt.
For the price, the BLT is one of the best pedals out there, IMO.
However, the FabEcho can be had for like 12 bucks if you shop around, so well worth it as a backup or throw it in your gig bag pedal for when you want to travel light.
