There's just something about the RV-3...I've almost sold it so many times but it always ends up staying.
I really love my somewhat questionable Boss pedals!

Prymaxe is probably busy trying to make the bills since all they do is run sales so they've adjusted their coupon strategy. Instead of 15% off or whatever, they're currently offering $15 off $95 order, $30 off $195 orders, etc, etc.

PRY30 is the code you use for the Context. They're not expected in stock until June 4th :wha?: but they still honor the discount if you order now.

the RV-3 only does a couple of things, but it does them so well that boxes i buy to replace it always fail. it's so simple to get a nice, dense, warmish cloud of reverb and delay happening, and it always sounds good no matter what genre you apply it to. it sits at a perfect spot between hi-fi and lo-fi.

Some of my absolute favorite bands of all time have made VERY good use of the RV series. :thumb:

For sure. The other reverbs I've had just don't have that weird place that isn't too cloudy or transparent. That's what I love about it. Especially in mode 11...I don't think I could ever bring myself to sell it at this point.
