Re: [SurfGuitar101] Danelectro "Spring King" reverb thing

Halibut Rick (halibutrick) - 29 Oct 2003 16:08:33

Ive got one. It sounds pretty good, but it ain't no reverb unit. I just
use it at home and drag it along as a backup to gigs.
I had a Holy Grail for a while. It sounded OK except for the when I was
palm muting strings and it started to distort a little. I thought
something was wrong with it so I took it back and the one in the shop
did the same thing. I ended up getting the dano.
All the other reverb type pedals don't even come close to sounding
surfy at all. If you really want a pedal, and your local shop is
jerking you around, check the return policy at the mail order places
like musician friend.
But, if you really want to be surfy, be patient, save up, and buy a
reissue reverb. You'll be much happier.
