People with amp reverb, do you also have a verb pedal?

So I'm curious to find out how many people who already have reverb in their amp also have pedals. If you answer yes post what pedal(s) you have and your reason for adding it.


Thanks!

Fender and Dr.Z amps, both with reverb tanks. Couple of pedals for the non-spring verb.

I've used a BSR and currently use a Space for non-spring reverbs. But neither pedal can come close to the warm, natural sound of the built-amp, tube-driven spring reverb of an amp like in my Allen Sweetspot or Chihuahua.

I have a long spring reverb in my Fender amp and the Boss FVR-1. It's a backup for the tank and I mess with stacking some times.

Ive got reverb on a couple amps, but still use a Space for out-there sounds.

One of my amps has reverb, the Allen Encore. A 2 knob reverb, and a good one. Despite that, I always end up using the Hermida Reverb on my small pedal board. Got it for my non-reverb amps, but it's too good not to use - in the signal chain, and I prefer it. Strange but true.

I am fine with any subtle reverb personally. I am using a '65 Bassman (no reverb), so when I am using the amp dirty, I usually turn off the reverb pedal. I thought about adding an effect loop or reverb circuit, but never made the move.

Thanks for everyone who has responded so far. I really enjoy the reverb I get from my Vox AC30C2 (especially when it's turned up) but I feel like there's just a little something lacking. It's probably because I got spoiled on all those pure fender reverbs over the years. Anyone on here find a nice reverb pedal that compliments the vox's verb?

My Black Pearl has reverb, but I don't use that either.

I play Blackface amps which have reverb, but sometimes I add a RV-3 with really wet setting, for ambient / alternative stuff.

So I was thinking, at least for me personally, if I were to get a reverb pedal I'd want one that could get those very out there/spacey verb sounds that could compliment the natural verb I already have coming out of my Vox. Do you guys think Strymon Blue Sky would be the best for this? In theory Eventide Space but that box sounds way to digital to me.

I mainly use a DRRI, but I prefer the sound of the Hermida reverb pedal. I use the amp's reverb for more extreme sounds.

I have an ac15c1 and really like the dark reverb of the vox as my "always on" ambiance. I use the earthquaker devices ghost echo when i need something splashier (with the vox verb still on) or even ridiculous and self oscillating.

The Ghost Echo is easily one of my favorite purchases ever.
