reverb suggestions
so i'm a little unhappy with most of the verbs on my L6 M9. they're ok, but i want something more, preferably "boutique". i play alot of ambient stuff so it's gotta be in that range, but i like versatility as well. i also have my amps reverb, but it's not footswitchable and is kinda limited. any suggestions would be AWESOME.

Re: reverb suggestions
Even though it's not "Boutique" the EHX Holy Grail, would be one to check out or the Plush good reverberations. What's your price range?

don't really have a set price range. i've been working a ton and i have a few textbooks to sell, and tax returns coming soon, so i'm gonna have some extra cash. i do have a book to replace, but other than that i'm gonna have a decent price range for this purchase.

I have a EHX Nano Holy Grail that I like alot, it's $120 new, the Plush is $250. And if money is no object, you could try and find a vintage Fender Tube Reverb Tank!

Re: reverb suggestions
Dr. Scientist RRR is great, ton of options and a tiny footprint. Can go really subtle to wildly extreme, rotary setting is a cool bonus as well. It will definitely do ambient.
No spring setting though...

Re: reverb suggestions
In my opinion, the best 3 reverbs out there at the moment:
Dr Scientist RRR
Strymon BSR
Eventide Space
There's a ton of great reverbs you could buy (Malekko Spring Chicken, WET, EQD Ghost Echo, Hardwire, Boss RV2, etc, etc). Some of those can do one thing at a high level of awesomeness, but if money is not an issue I would go with the best! Those first 3 can do many things as good as, if not better than, almost anything out there.

Re: reverb suggestions
the Earthquaker Devices Ghost Echo is pretty much always on for me, but it's more an ambiance generator than a traditional reverb.
the new TC Electronic Hall of Fame looks really versatile.

Re: reverb suggestions
I really want to try the Hall of Fame super bad. Sounds great from the clips I've heard.

Re: reverb suggestions
I have a Hall of Fame incoming; I'll post my thoughts in here after I get it.

Re: reverb suggestions
Best sounding = Wet or Strymon. I prefer the wet. My bandmate has the strymon and even he says the Wet sounds better. Of course, this is just my opinion.
Versatility = RRR, TC Hall of Fame, or the Tech 21 RVB Boost. I think the RVB boost is really underrated!
If you need reverse, then look into racks. You also have the option of the Cathedral, but it seems like most folks aren't a huge fan of it. Another option would be the hardwire RV-7.
Unless you have 400$+, then I'd get the eventide space which would end all your reverb needs
What "sound" are you primarily going to need it for?

I think the cathedral is awesome. The only thing I've ever heard is that it's a bit harsh in the top end of it. I would argue against that any day of the week.

I agree, cathedral is cool (friend of mine has one). I have an RRR on the way though, can't wait
