This might not be the place to ask, but seeing as I am actually curious about what will not suck the awesome tone out of my EBMM JP BFR F1, I guess this might just be the place.
I am in the market for a new Reverb unit, seeing as my last one bit the dust and my amp (mesa triple rec) doesn't have a built in spring or digital unit. I play mostly hard driving rhythm and some light solo stuff (although my speed leaves something to be desired). Musically I play just about whatever pays the bills (any derivative of rock, country, bluegrass, and some good ol' standards). I'm looking for any quality reverb unit, whether it be a stompbox or rackmount that is pretty versatile (read: not necessarily easy to use). Any suggestions?
And apologies if this is not the correct section in which to post this question.

+1 on the Nova Reverb. I have the Nova Delay and its nothing short of amazing. I'm sure the Nova Reverb would be just as amazing.

fsmith replaced one of his stock MM90s with a P90-shaped humbucker. I don't remember what kind. There is a thread here somewhere if you want to search for it. You can ask him about the process, I think.

Beej, can the Verbzilla do an organ type sound? One of my friends who has one said it can, so I was just curious.
It's got an "octo" effect that gives you a harmonized note as it fades, adds some cool ambiance. It's kind of "organ-ish". Pretty solid reverb pedal.

Thanks for all of the suggestions so far. Unfortunately my BFR has gotten sick and has been sent in for some kind, medical attention, and I don't know when she will be back. But, rest assured, I will definitely pick something up before then (so when she gets back I will be ready). Thanks again!

Jeez, that bites. What happened to it?

Maybe it caught a cold like me :confused: ;)

It started to sprout frets and had some minor neck bow issues, the kind that no truss rod adjustment or humidity could fix. But on the bright side, EB has taken extremely great care of me. I can't seem to stop raving about their great CS. That and it got the herpes.
