RE: [SurfGuitar101] Hello.

Hi,
First of all I would like to welcome you guys!!!
I would like to add a thought on reverb pedals.
The Electro Harmonix Holy Grail is a nice reverb pedal, sounds great for
practicing and even for rehearsal.
Also the new Danelectro reverb pedal with kick pad (to simulate the
spring twang when you kick the real thing) seams to sound fine too.
(Didn't have the chance to try that one out)
Anyway there are some cool cheap(er) spring reverb units (with real
springs, instead of digital spring sound) out there.
O.K. Nothing beats a Fender Spring, but that one could get deep into
your pocket!
In the Sixties many (music) companies made freestanding reverb units,
which sound really nice. Not all of them are tube amplified, but most of
them function as pre-amp as well.
Again most sound (very) different from the Fender one, but they have
there own sound which can make a difference when you are on a budget and
they sound surf enough to me.
Just my two cents,
Jerry S. from Belgium "The Ohmmen"
