Looking into a Wet reverb.....probably the stereo one. Anyone have any experience with it? Also considering the Hardwire Supernatural, if anyone has any feedback on that.

Hell, I'm open to suggestions.

Whatcha got?

I like the Malekko reverbs and the Tech 21 R. V. B. Boost reverb. Also, the Earthquaker Devices Dispatch Master is awesome Reverb + Delay pedal. My 2 cents.

I've got a Strymon BlueSky. Really awesome reverb! Spring, Room, Plate settings with availability of modulation and also shimmer for that fun ambient rainy day kinf of stuff. Strymon also has the Flynt which people seem to like a lot as well. Really love their stuff.

Strymon Bluesky Reverb for me. Sounds tremendous, the reverb hangs around each note like the morning mist clinging to a grassy field on a cool February morning. Never obtrusive, very complimentary. Seriously, I have recently changed to an all Strymon board and couldn't be happier. Plus Luke uses one. I have heard excellent things about the Wet too. Good luck. Here it is prior to getting Möbius and Orbit. The Luke models all play very well with the Strymon stuff, better than my analog stuff. Just a thought.

As Andy mentioned above Strymon are my "favorite" in Reverb and Delay - hands down.

With that said, I am not a big fan of huge reverb. During live gigs I determine what my "delay" is doing (my priority effect), and then add a pinch or so of spring reverb to decreetly round out the sound perimeters.

Quality is still very important but it needs to fit onto a tight pedal board ( two of my 3 my main amps do not have built in reverb, Marshall JCM 900 MKlll, VHT Pittbull CL100), so, TCE Hall of Fame Rev. got the job.

I've been looking for a reverb pedal too for a few months now. I tried them all and I was most impressed with EHX's Holy Grail pedal.

Andy G - definately heard good things about the Strymon. A little more spendy than what I wanted, but not a deal breaker. The size factor is a little concerning for me though. That's one reason why I'm thinking the Wet.

Jamie M and mikeller - I have the HOF already. Something about my house and the TCE stuff (I have 3) doesn't jive. My board is dead quiet until I engage my HOF or Flashback.......then.......SPORTS RADIO RIGHT THRU MY AMP. Not impressed. Weeding out the TCE pedals. First to go is the Flashback, then the HOF.

Are you using the HOF/Flashback thru an effects loop or in front of the amp?

I've hear a lot of good things about the WET as well and its is quite customizable with the different algorithms/patches you can load into it. But I just love that with the Strymon you have so much versatility with the knobs. Also I dont mind the size because you have basically 2 in one. The favorite switch is awesome. Cant do that with the other reverbs.

Out front. No loop on my amp.

I was wondering. My HOF is very quiet. That being said, I only use it with the Mini Rec, my other amps have reverb. My only reverb needs with what I am doing these days is just a slight splash of it. So I just set the HOF in the loop with a Boss DD20 and keep the HOF on a spring reverb setting.

I just play in big, empty buildings... :(

I had a Blue Sky, and I loved it. Sold it to pay for a root canal. HA!

The Hardwire Supernatural Ambient Verb is a GREAT pedal. Right now, I'm using the Hardwire RV-7 Stereo reverb. Does the job for me.

I use the reverb with my Blackstar amp, sounds pretty good to me. However, the comment about the TC pedals and picking up radio signals was something I noticed as well! I don't use the effects loop either and have definitely noticed that I pick up AM radio. It's actually not bad at all with the TC Chorus, but the Flashback Delay does sometimes. However, the TC Spark Booster pedal definitely picks up AM.

The only good thing is that it doesn't happen everywhere. Most places I don't have the issue, but one particular room at the rehearsal studio... man it's big time.

EBS Dynaverb is my fave these days.

The HoF isn't bad, but it doesn't sound as rich to me. I still have one on my small board.

Classic...luv it!

I'm wondering if the Supernatural is too "over the top". It seems like every setting is modulated. I'm wondering if it does "subtle" reverb at all.
