Plate reverb? That's pretty ambitious for an an amplifier:

BOSS FRV-1 doesn't do plate, but BOSS RV-5 does, as does the DigiTech RV-7 and some others. Plate reverb doesn't sound like spring reverb. At least I can't make the plate reverb on my RV-5 sound like the spring reverb on the same pedal, let alone like the FRV-1.

I was thinking about purchasing the ZT with 6'5 speaker to plug it in my cabinets as a backup for my amp head if something goes wrong and for rehealsals but it seems to me that the sound of these amps is a little bit metalic (opinion based on youtube vids). I have not tried one of those myself.

Saw the New Years news post today from Chicchi. After watching that, I noticed they also have a sample up of this amp w/ the Boss pedal...

Sorry, just realized this question was about the 12... Clearly the video is not that one. Of interest here none the less, I would imagine.
Oh, wait, is that maybe the new Boss Giant series FRV-1 !?!?
