This has probably been discussed several times on the Forum, but is anybody just using the amp reverb anymore or is everyone using another reverb? If you are using another, what's considered to be the best? Thanks for all the input and thanks for all the "steel" information on this great Forum.

I only use the reverb on my old Fender Twin. On everything else I use a digital reverb such as the Boss RV3 or a multi-effects unit. Peavey's amp reverbs just don't get anywhere close to the Fender reverbs.

I also use just the reverb on my Twin....but; we have a drummer that stomps pretty good when he plays and if it's that kinda stage that shakes; I have to use my Rv-3; cause otherwise there is a loud splashing awful sound coming from my area......ah.....ha.

I use the reverb on my twin as well, but a digital reverb that I've found which sounds absolutly wonderful, and use it on my Marshalls, is a little Alesis NanoVerb....99 bucks!....sounds great!....nice delay too

I seldom use external reverbs. The exception is when I'm recording, when I usually don't use an amp anyway. Fenders have a great reverb, except for the models that use the short (POS) reverb tank. I've used an analog delay with my Super Twin, but only because the EQ circuit affects the reverb delay.

I finally found the "Fender reverb" sound in a studio rack mount unit...but it costs about two grand.

I am working on a patch in my Digitech 2112 to try to get close to the Fender sound. It has a spring reverb effect that can be added to a patch, but it doesn't sound very good "as is". My problem is that the patches I set up in my music room don't sound the same when I use them at the Church where I play, so I usually tweak them while I'm playing until I get the sound I want. I just started using in-ear monitors so now everything sounds different again. Oh well, if I ever found that perfect sound, I wouldn't have any reason to play.

I for one have gone back to amp reverb and a delay pedal. I want to carry something else small in case of the bouncies..I'm curious about this Electro Harmonix "Holy Grail" digital "spring reverb" box. Anybody tried it? FWIT, I've got one of those old Furman spring reverb units that I was gonna put on eBay until I plugged it in and tried it. Not too shabby at all! And you can find these cheap....
