I have the blue sky and love it! In fact, my dad, Wally Moyers, used it last week at the Phoenix show and I almost didn’t get it back from him.... killer pedal.

I use a Strymon Big Sky in the effects loop of my Nasville 112. It works very well. Does it work better than any other decent reverb? I don't think I can tell. I think it sounds better than the 112's built in reverb, perhaps, and certainly allows one to customize it to one's taste.

I, and most guitar and steel players I know, use a Flint for reverb and trem- great tones, set it and forget it, or tweak away.

When I fly, I use the Strymon Big Sky, and, of all the pedal reverbs, this is the best, at least to my ears. I use the plate setting. When I'm driving to a gig though, I use a Lexicon mpx550 which is a rack space unit.

The Flint is excellent. Reverb+Trem. Many choices for sounds, all useable.
