And I can always crank the spring reverb on the amp to wash it out further.

Yes washing fuzz in reverb will help you achieve the sound I believe you are aiming for.

sort of a side note but not really! weird kvlt black metal!

It was before I had settled 100% on the exact parts values, so it sounded a tad different, but still heavy!!

So when you guys put reverb before your distortion, what sort of reverb settings are you using ? Long reverbs with a very wet signal, or short and dry? Or long and dry? Or short and wet? Share the knowledge :)

I've been using my Holy Grail on the Spring setting with the mix at about 2 o'clock, which is kind of dry. If it gets to be too wet of a signal it just sounds like the guitar is floating. With the Rub-A-Dub reverb I'm finding the trails to be a little too long, so I dial 3/4 of the reverb out. So I'd say short trails, decent mix

I like a short reverb with a mid to long wetness if I am going for that cold, obscured, murky but not tooo murky metal toanz. or maybe a long wet reverb pre fuzz and a short dry reverb post!

Yeah, if I'm tracking guitar it's usually verb->fuzz->delay/reverb!!

:!!!: verb-fuzz- delay-verb and maybe even another dirt after that (if you want to get craaazy). but it wouldn't be ILF without absurd pedlllulllz chains!

Hahaha so essentially a "normal" signal chain in reverse? :)
