How many reverb units does one man need? I can't answer that, but I can say I have 2 too many right now. Update - I only have the Gomez..... SOLD Gomez G-Spring reverb unit Excellent condition - 100% original. These are the gold standard in reverb units I think. I have one left, so don't shed a tear for me. $700 shipped PayPal gift in the cont. US

Hi, I realize this is gone, but wanted to ask for opinions on how these compare sonically to Fender '63 reissues. Is it that huge of a difference? Thanks so much for any input! |

There's really not much of a comparison to a reissue. They are THAT good. Upgrade when you can. There is another one for sale in the forums and I know of another person looking to sell one. —Matt "tha Kat" Lentz |

There is a huge difference in tone. A/B'ing them, the Gomez sounds richer and fuller. The reissue sounds dull & lo-fi, in comparison. The Gomez is hardwired with premium components, and NOS tubes. The reissue is a printed circuit board. I loved my reissue until I got my Gomez. What an eye-opener it was when I got, and fired-up, my Gomez! There's really no comparison. —Bob |

Reissues are Japanese Fenders. They sound great until you play the real deal. |

Thanks everyone! Guess I will be selling my reissue and saving up a little to reinvest in a Gomez! Matt, is it okay to inquire with you once I have the funds to see if you have any connections to one? Cheers, Sophia |
