The Watkins Copicat is an audio effects unit that produces delay and reverb effects. One of the first commercially available tape delay units,[1] the original Copicat model was produced by Watkins Electric Music beginning in 1958. The Copicat became one of Watkins' most successful products, and the company produced various Copicat models and versions over the following decades.
