This german jewel is one of the best tube tape echo of all time. Signal chain: Guitar - Klemt Echolette NG-51 - Roland VG-99 - Focusrite Liquid Saffire - Ableton Live
I had a 1965 model. To this day I regret selling it. It was paired with a 1965 Stratocaster and a 1965 Fender Showman. This combo was the voice of God.
Wow! just got an NG51 because of this video. A nice deal (I hope) with original Telefunkens on it. Can't wait for it, that would be alongside my M40. By the way, which guitar (or guitars) did you used on this demo? It sounds lovely gorgeous Xavi!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Can you please tell me about using it to record directly into audio interface. If I just put cable from output (modded input3) of NG51 to my interface signal is overgained and high, even if I lower input signal to almost zero. Do you use Roland vg-99 for the purpose to make it sound right, or I’m wrong? And if yes, then how can you make the sound not alter too much with the guitar processor? I have boss br 600, it also have guitar cab simulation, so I’m wondering if it will help me to record guitar through NG51 directly to my Mac without using actual amp and mics?
Try Bobby's Reparaturen in Germany: does echolette, dynachord, fender etc. Worth shipping to him. www.bobbysreparaturen.de (don't know if he still operational though...but 100% pro)
Hi Xavi, thanks for this video. I have an incoming NG51 S with matching M100 amp. Is the NG51S hard to service? Did you replace the electrolytic power Caps?

Greatest echo ever!
That preamp drive is fantastic. Sounds like an old Tweed Fender. Two effects in one machine, 👍
Just packaged mine up to send. Buyer changed his mind. Looking at this now ,I am so glad to have it.
I have just acquired one of these to record my album, watching this convinced me it was the right choice. Thanks
Amazing! Great capture of how good these sound, man. Nailed it 😎🤘
Beautiful! Wunderbar!
Dungen
5:20 sounds like Novalis :) beautiful!
Awesome!
Best than maestro echoplex for sure.

Thank you! It's one of the best sounding tape delay. I use a Gretsch 6120 with Gibson P90.
Is there anything similar to this on the market?

Does this have the original telefunken tubes in it?
Lee Roden I can’t remember but I think that it’s possible.
what would this be valued at? how much are they worth?
It depends on the condition.If the overall condition it's good you can find one for around 500 euros but as I said it depends on condition.
thanks I found one for sale in mint condition so i wonder were it mite go off at Peace..
Do you know somebody who can do a good TLC job on my echollete please? thank you
Sorry,I can't help you on this but I think any amp technician can help you.
@@deepbooka Thanks .

How come the output is coming from an input socket?
It was changes it because I don't use the direct input (no preamp).I use only the two preamp inputs.Is a very simple mod and very useful.
@@deepbooka Hello, What is the mod ?
@@massesesclaves644 That echo has a "line" input that bypasses the first preamp tube. You can use that input as an output with a very simple mod.
what are surf songs you play?
+Артём Кожевин Just an improvisation/jam.
Hi Xavi, thanks for this video. I have an incoming NG51 S with matching M100 amp. Is the NG51S hard to service? Did you replace the electrolytic power Caps?
Hi,Yes,you can replace the power caps but unfortunately these echos are very hard to service.Too much componets inside without space to work.Lucky!
Thanks for the reply! Did you change the capacitors of this unit?
Elinin No,in this unit are all original.
