Pedal geeks i need u (help jjjusten make decisions about awesome pedals for his store)

I really liked the reverb in Strymon's Flint and preferred the simplicity to something like a Blue Sky. Plus there's a tremolo!

I've had a Boss RV-3 for something like 15 years? Still on the board, still great.

I have a BigSky and it is too complicated.

Boss RV-3

alltimer.

I used to have an alesis nanoverb, I loved that thing. Great hall sounds.

I don't know if they're still cheap but the Digitech Polara sounds good, lots of options without getting too deep into the weeds on them.

I don’t know why I used past tense up there. I still have the Flint - it’s an awesome pedal that just happens to be on the opposite coast right now

oh milo, that's a really good suggestion! too bad that whole line of digitech stuff went out of production (though a quick search on reverb and it's not gotten outrageously expensive for second hand ones). the polara had some really strong conventional sounds (especially the spring — really good!), but then it also had some more weird modes like the halo setting. super unique and versatile.

i keep wanting to play a flint, but that strymon stuff is just too expensive to be going out on whims for.

i think i've finally gotten tired of delay. never thought it would happen, but i knew it was over when i looked at my trusty old bicycle delay and found myself asking, "do i really need this one? like REALLY need it?" seems like new delays coming out anymore are just focusing on presets and weird glitchy processed repeats. that stuff is fine, but meh i don't really have any interest in making those kinds of sounds. i bought a boss dd-200 last year and that has been pretty much my go-to ever since. i'm boring now i guess.

Another Digitech reverb that gets a lot of praise is the Supernatural, especially for the spring reverb.

Source Audio is also really good.

I have a Marshall Reflector too and like it. Have had it a long time and remember doing a lot of comparing with the EHX Holy Grail and maybe a Boss one when deciding what to buy. Clearly came out on top.
