I just bought a Roland RE-201 Space Echo off of eBay. The item was listed as 'like new!', 'mint', 'one owner', yadda yadda.
First off the bulb for the VU meter doesn't work (not that big of a deal I suppose).
Secondly and most importantly, this thing smells like it spent it's past life as an ash tray and rose from the grave to haunt my studio! I'm going to give the seller the benefit of the doubt and assume he was a smoker immune to the stench but there really should be a Surgeon General's warning on this thing
So, am I screwed? Is there some way to air this puppy out or am I going to have to throw this thing back on eBay?
What a drag
