I'm looking for a good reverb pedal. Do they exist? Make some recommendations.

Dr. Scientist Radical Red Reverberator. Just got mine a couple of days ago and love it. Really cool pedal with lots of options and ranges.

Cheers

Vanamps Solemate

Reverb tank in pedal form. FANTASTIC pedal, sounds great and looks just as nice (not good for pedal space though.

+1. If you've got the board real estate, it's a sweet sounding and versatile reverb pedal.

I'm really picky about verb pedals and I the only ones for a while I could tolorate were the EH Holy Grails. I was really dissapointed with a few of them out there including the Nova Reverb.

But,

I actually just tried out the tube driven T-Rex Room-Mate and I was pleasantly impressed! It will be my next verb purchase unless something else comes up. Sounds very warm and real overall. Expensive but I've spend way more on other pedals.

The Tech 21 RVB Reverb is what I use after trying Holy Reverb (not real enough), Soulmate (couldn't use without it feeding back even at 10 feet), Nanoverb (old slower and mechanical sounding). I really like the RVB because of the many parameters. I wanted to try the T-rex but never did. Places like the musictoyz.com will let you return things without question and they just have to have all packing stuff and no scratches etc. That is how I tried the Soulmate, I just lost the shipping.

Good Luck

I'm surprised to hear about the Solemate, i havent been able to get it to feedback.

However i have heard really good things about the Tech 21.

Really depends what you're looking for in a reverb. For my application, and having tried many of them, I favour the Verbzilla. Really convincing, price is right and built like a tank.

I posted a thread earlier this week with some clips from my new Tech 21. I love it.

I have not played a lot of reverb pedals, the one I currently own is the T Rex Room Mate I like it very much. Its very warm and not harsh to my ears

+1 Verbzilla for me. Sounds REAL good, very musical and convicing, not to mention ultra versatile. My RV50's reverb is stellar but I use the Zilla for huge hall and cave reverbs.
