What would you call a collection of EchoTappers?

Took this photo yesterday at our NI Shadows Club Monthly meeting. For the first time we dispensed with our vintage Roland and Binson units and everyone played through one of these wonderful eTap2hw boxes.

Maybe this should be called a 'feedback' or a 'repeat' of EchoTappers ;)

Des McNeill built the four manual units for members on the left and the one on the right is my latest Mark III venture, the EchoTapper Valve VIntage Echo Unit which uses the same valve pre-amp as Ecca's EccaValvaMatic but has the automation from my Mark II unit with the addition of a rotary encoder (the gold knob) for faster/easier preset selection and parameter adjustments.

Hi Phil,
I think a "repeat" sounds good and in my case was only too true !!

Des.

'Repeat' is almost there, but 'A Repetition of EchoTappers' rolls off the tongue nicely.

How about an ECCAOFALOT.:-)
I know Ecca probably didn't make them all but he did make mine and I am delighted with it.
I think Dave Robinson said in another thread something about people who werent really into Shadows said how good his sound was. WELL, the very same thing happened to me last Friday.
We all owe a lot to Piet and in my case to Ecca as well. Thanks Piet and thanks again Ecca, hope you had a good holiday.
All the best
Harry
