What's a good simple to use reverb pedal?

[Rex Rocker]

I want a reverb to use with my amps that don't have reverb. I prefer spring reverb. What is a good straight-forward reverb pedal with a convincing spring reverb emulation? Sound quality and realism are the priority, but simplicity is also important. I don't need nor do I want 7489759475947594 types of reverb available, nor do I want a full-size spring reverb tank.

I'm looking at the TC Electronic HOF Mini or the EHX Holy Grail Neo, but is there anything more up-to-date or better?

Hermida audio reverb. Or malekko chicklett.

Do not the the EHX, i found it disappointing.

The Tone print shit is the opposite of simple.

 

[misterspockyall]

Ditto hermida, amazing spring. Or tbh, the mxr reverb surprised the hell out of me

My favorite has been the Matthews astronomer. Sounds very lush and pretty. It sent my Empress Reverb packing, which sounded cold and clinical in comparison

I love my HOF Mini. It does not take up my real estate on my pedalboard.

Can that pedal's output be set to 100% wet if the mix knob is maxed out ? Wondering how well that method would work in a parallel FX loop.

Yes. The mix knob maxed out is 100% wet. Says so in the manual. I used it in a W/D/W set up and sounded great. The Immerse, which is their multi-reverb pedal actually has a kill/dry switch.

Another vote for the neunaber wet, awesome pedal. Also have a look at the source audio True Spring, gets a lot of good reviews on only released recently.

May want to look at the Neunaber immerse as well

Keeley Omni. 2 Knobs. Dwell and Level. Does Spring, Plate, and Room.

Hermida audio reverb.

Ditto hermida, amazing spring.

This! They are currently in limited production in collaboration with Lovepedal as the Reverb 3. Message Lovepedal to find out when they'll be making another batch and then when they do, grab one. Best sounding reverb in a pedal period. Warm and lush with no unpleasant digital artifacts. And at a fantastic price. I got mine direct from Lovepedal during their last batch production for $99 USD.

Hardwire RV-7 is a great pedal.

 

[romanianreaper]

I used to dig the Holy Grail pedal

 

[Rex Rocker]

Thanks a lot for the suggestions, dudes. Lots of interesting options.

 

[japetus]

Hardwire RV-7 is a great pedal.

VERY underrated, just like their Delay.

Yep. Simple but gives you some additional options like Hall and Plate in addition to Spring.

I used a Wampler Faux Spring Reverb for a few years. Simple as can be and sounds amazing.
