Seems like Fender are finally taking effects seriously. There's an option to flip the order, and you get an extra plate reverb option. Seems like this is what I wanted the Flint to be. I.e., more surfy (and cheaper) Very curious to know if it's replaced anyone's reverb and/or tremolo pedals?

Thank you Ryan.....finally a demo that does this pedal justice. To my ears, at least in the demo, the 'verb is very good, has decent drip but not as real tank drip sounding as the EHX Oceans 11 or True Spring but better than the Strymon Flint. Trem sounds are very good also, but not quite up to the Strymon Flint but super close. All in all, a very good combo pedal with lots of very good tones and a good alternative to the Flint that drips.

"I don't know what I was hearing at NAMM but it wasn't this."
I'd agree, the early demos I heard of this pedal were singularly unimpressive, but this is more than OK. There's no reason Fender can't create a good quality effect pedal; they certainly have the resources required to develop one. I intend to give give one of these an in-person test play.
Apparently the early examples were on software that wasn't quite ready for Prime Time.
