I just use the reverb off of my amp, whenever I use my Nashville amp. Whenever I use my Walker Stereo Steel, I have the pro fex to use with that. The Nashville has the tone mods on it. And it sounds really clean.

It's not easy to read the settings, but wow do I love the reverbs this has.

Depending on what type of reverb you want to have in your system Strymon makes some very high end products. I switched over to Strymon and that is all I use on my steel rig and on my acoustic electric 6 string set up. I can go anywhere I want with there reverb. Just my 2 cents

Most combo amp spring reverbs (all Fender and most others) work only on the high frequencies. This may sound OK *if* that's where you want reverb, but in reality it creates a washed-out, muddied tone. I use several Fender tube amps with reverb but NEVER use the spring reverb - I use analog delay instead.

Analog delay covers the full frequency spectrum; two set to different repeats and depth sounds like reverb - but FAR better. Be aware that many of the reverb pedals on the market are designed to emulate combo spring reverb and are voiced for highs (and digital reverb generally sounds incredibly artificial).


curious why you feel like verb on high frequencies only results in mud?
my experience is the opposite. if you put the reverb wrap-around between the two channels of a Fender amp, 100% wet, you have tone controls for the wet. i've always felt like turning down the bass on that has made things less muddy.

i also would comment that for me, personally, i don't find delay to be functionally equivalent to reverb at all. obviously, they're both time domain effects, and i use them both to put a halo on stuff, but i never feel like one covers the other. personally, i find reverb to be much more 'neutral' than echo. messes with rhythmic figures less.

"halo" is a great descriptor for reverb and delay.
Another +1 for the Neunaber WET mono reverb.
I really like it for all my guitars, acoustics, steels, dobros.
