Pre-Owned Catalinbread Talisman Plate Reverb
The Talisman: Studio Plate Reverb in a Compact Stompbox
Legendary EMT 140 Plate Reverb Tones
The Catalinbread Talisman delivers the lush, dimensional character of the legendary EMT 140 plate reverb in a compact format. Designed to replicate the rich ambiance found on iconic records from the 70s, the Talisman provides immersive decay that enhances without overpowering. With only light cosmetic wear, this pre-owned unit functions exactly as intended, offering expansive reverberation from subtle space to ambient wash.
Studio-Style Controls for Onboard Sculpting
Unlike simpler reverb pedals, the Talisman includes a high pass filter to tame low-end build-up and a pre-delay control to separate dry signal from reflections. These features provide clarity and articulation in both clean and gain-heavy contexts, making it easy to tailor the reverb to your tone without sacrificing depth or presence.
Buffered or True Bypass with Internal Switching
The internal bypass mode switch lets you choose between true bypass or buffered bypass with trails. In buffered mode, the Mix and Volume controls stay active even when the pedal is bypassed, allowing it to double as a global output level control. The onboard preamp offers clean boost potential, giving this ambient tool unexpected versatility.
Versatile Signal Chain Integration
Designed for flexibility, the Talisman works equally well at the end of a pedal chain or in effects loops that support instrument or adjustable line level. Power it with any standard 9-18V DC center-negative supply capable of 100mA or more. Note that no power supply is included.
Vintage Reverb Character with Modern Control
With spacious decay, touch-sensitive dynamics and detailed EQ control, the Talisman delivers timeless plate reverb textures adapted for modern pedalboards. Whether you’re chasing ambient trails or adding depth to your dry tone, it’s a compelling solution that inspires creativity.
