Electro-Harmonix has been one of those manufacturers that has been at the forefront of analog delay effects design since the 1970s, much of which have been featured in various recordings throughout that time with Memory Man being an example. Living up to heritage of Memory Man, Electro-Harmonix Memory Boy has been born following the footsteps of its predecessor and helping to shape the legends of the future.

Memory Boy's release has the objective of bringing an all-powerful delay pedal within reach of every musician on a tight budget, given over two years of work to design this kid using new and refined analog ICs. Just like its old man, Memory Boy sports a 550-ms delay time. With such a generous offering, you can perform interesting textured guitar work that, given the right technique, is almost comparable to live looping software. More than just being your standard delay pedal, it offers modulation options such as waveform pattern selection between saw and square. It also has a three-way toggle switch where the middle position corresponds to an expression-pedal controlled delay, the upper position for vibrato effect, and the lower position for chorus. Given that the middle position of the toggle switch permits control via an expression pedal, there is also an expression pedal port to allow you to control certain parameters without even manipulating Memory Boy with your hands.

Getting the Electro-Harmonix Memory Boy will give you legendary delay and modulation effects within just a tap of your foot will set you apart. The Memory Boy has a list price of 106.00 USD, a lot of pedal for such a boyish price. If Salvador Dali we're alive today, he might just make a third painting for his Persistence Of Memory pieces upon hearing of this.
