TC 2290

Honestly, why I have 3 - if one goes down I have parts for the other 2.

Those would be the most expensive parts in musical instrument history.......


....well, with the exception being Yaron-aged humbucker rings.

lol, but if if you can't get it repaired…

Maybe I'll open a vintage gear junk yard?

For me nothing sounds like a 2290. I grew up using them. So, just a sound I love. Sort of like a tape echo - probably not worth the hassle for most, but for some nothing else will do.

It took me going through nearly every delay out there before buying a 2290... Best delay purchase I've ever made. I still love the Chandler though.

Just get an Eclipse and be done with it. I wouldn't buy a 2290 at this point. Great units, but not worth the potential loss. There's plenty of other amazing units available with full support. Nobody in an audience is ever going to hear the difference between you running a 2290 or an Eclipse, etc.

I was just looking for one. But, decided to go with the new TC D2. The 2290 is sexy though and such a great unit. Will report back on the D2 in a couple weeks.

Wise decision IMO. A '63 Vette is a sexy unit too, but I wouldn't want one as my daily driver. The 2290, although a great unit, is essentially lost on anyone other than those who are in the room at the time it's being used.

I based my decision on the fact that I only 1 rack unit left in the rack.
