I haven't tried the reverb, but I have two of the Repeaters (rack mount) and this seems to be an innovative company.

Hi Jay;
I haven't tried or heard it in person yet; but it is sure getting GREAT reviews..
The older (70's)pedals they made were considered some of the best & almost bulletproof.The prices for the older pedals have went sky high.Maybe someone out there
has given this new pedal a tour around the block & will come in here & let us all know.
My best to you...Ron

I tried one recently. It's not bad. It almost gets a spring reverb sound.Pretty good for the price but I like real springs a lot more,or a Boss RV-2 if a pedal is preferred.

I tried one out in a store, and was impressed. One knob, one switch so it's real easy to dial in a sound. Not a million different settings, but it's real fast and easy to get a good sound out of it. It's about the only rev pedal I've tried and liked. Most others are too complicated, and stuffed with useless features and sounds. My opinion of course.....Jerry

Jerry & Cartwright,
Do you remember whether it added any
hissing noise when it was switched on
or was it fairly quiet.

I don't remember hearing any hiss or noise, but I was only playing it for five minutes or so, using a Telecaster. As I recall, it didn't have any real long reverbs, but sounded more like a spring unit....Jerry
