Another in the proud YouTube tradition of talk talk talk talk talk - then demo.
1:07 before he starts - then he's playing Stairway To Heaven. Those things are cool. I'm sure there's a warehouse full of them somewhere. If I had one I'd have it blueprinted and start making them in China. That thing would sell...

They are cool indeed.
I want one but after a while I tend to forget that I need to search for 'em.

Aspri reverb is available again
Hi,
no more waiting...ASPRI reverb units are available once more! If you're in Canada or the US then check out the link: http://aspriacoustic.com/ If you're in UK/Europe drop me a line as I have recently started importing units. There are improvements on the original, better low frequency response to my own ear. There are some recent videos on youtube (lovely cover of 'Here comes the Sun'). From my own experience once you have one of these fitted and bedded in a bit you won't ever take it off again. Nylon strung available now, steel soon to follow. Most importantly you don't need to wait it out or chance your arm on ebay! |

I don't hear anything in that demo. Maybe if he did an A/B sort of deal I'd hear something but I don't hear anything other than what I might think of as natural room reverb. And when he 'hoots' into the soundhole of the guitar, well, that to me again just the echo like what you'd naturally get out of any acoustic guitar.
Is the reverb effect just very subtle and I'm missing it? EDIT: There seems to be some newer vids where the effect is more obvious (to me). I'd love to hear one in person. I'm guessing it would be very apparent then.

Cool. Not sure about the "digital" comparison though. It's a mechanical reverb. And it's not driven by anything other than string vibration.Kinda like those Cletron 6x9 speakers in the early 60's that had a small tank mounted to the back of them Cool gimmick though.

Hey Rotheryrules, if you want a nylon strung version then let me know.
To other posters, suggest you listen to the YouTube videos by Rogerstarr07, sounds really good and some lovely playing. |

Hi All,

You can pick one up in the US here: http://www.aspri.com/en/cart.html UK and Europe here: http://www.echosounds.net/ I look after the UK site so any issues with ordering please drop me a line. Thanks! |
