I've got one, an EP3 off of Ebay several months back. You kinda have to baby them by cleaning, demaging and so forth. I actually sent mine off to OrbitElectronix and they took care of the servicing. I got them to retape my cartridge and align the heads, etc. They also informed me that I had the "compressor board" model and that removing it would bring the unit to life; and it did!

They're a bit noisy compared to modern "digital" echoes but they sound really cool and they can warm up a bright amp fast.
