At Colemans Music, we love when a modern pedal pays perfect homage to a vintage classic – and few pedals do that better than the BOSS RE-202 Space Echo.
Inspired by the iconic Roland RE-201 Space Echo, the RE-202 captures the lush, warm, tape-saturated textures of the original '70s unit, all while packing in modern features for today’s guitarists, synth players, and producers. Whether you're chasing ambient swells, dub-style echoes, or rich vintage repeats, the RE-202 delivers in spades.
A Classic Reimagined
The original RE-201 was a staple in studios and on stages for decades, used by legends like Brian Eno, Radiohead, Pink Floyd, and countless others. Its distinctive tape echo combined with spring reverb created an unmistakable sonic signature.
The BOSS RE-202 revives that exact character – right down to the gentle modulation and subtle imperfections of vintage tape. But this isn’t just a clone: it’s a reinvention.
