Ibanez / ES3

A delay pedal with an attractive vintage look that can be used in two modes: analog and digital.

■ Analog mode / Digital mode switch
While maintaining the ease of use of the previous model ""ES2"", the successor model ES3 is equipped with a new digital delay mode. You can easily select analog mode / digital mode with a single switch.
In analog mode, a delay sound is generated using a BBD (Bucket Brigade Device) element, and the delay time can be set from 40ms to a maximum of 600ms.
Like the previous model ES2, it has a natural and warm sound with little sound loss and good sound penetration.
In digital mode, the delay time can be set from 40ms to a maximum of 1,500ms, and it can also handle long delay effects like a surprise weapon.
■ INSTRUMENT / LINE LEVEL switch according to the input instrument or pedal
INSTRUMENT...Suitable for the input level from a general electric guitar. Select this if you want to use the ES3 as a guitar effect pedal.
LINE...This is suitable for inputting high-output signals, such as when connecting the ES3 after a booster, connecting it to an amplifier's effect loop (send/return), or even when using it as an effect pedal for a keyboard.

■Classical and stable housing design
To adjust the delay time, a fader is used that combines a classical look with ease of use, just like the ES2. The exterior also has a classical design with a wooden frame placed next to the mint-colored housing.

■Tap function allows you to set the optimal tempo while playing

■MODULATION ON/OFF switch
By setting the delay time to a short value, you can reproduce an effect similar to a chorus.

■OSCILLATION switch that generates intense oscillation
By pressing and holding the TAP/OSC switch, OSCILLATION, which generates intense oscillation, is turned ON.
When it is ON, you can adjust the FEEDBACK, slide the delay time, switch the MODULATION switch, etc. to create an even more chaotic sound.

※OSCILLATION Please note that if the delay time is suddenly increased when this is set to ON, it may damage the amplifier speaker.
