Boss FRV-1 Reverb Pedal Review for Surf Guitar

[surfstrat59]

nice and wet......... I use a Boss RV-5, which I am extremely happy with!

nice demo! i have a fender reverb tank reissue...seems very close...but the drop sound is much deeper with the tube reverb...i think is a cheap choice if you can't afford an original one....i personally prefer the Danelectro Spring King as a cheap real spring reverb---

I used to have the Fender Hot Rod DeVille 410 with real Fender spring reverb and it didn't do that obnoxious rattle, clang, pop noise. I want a nice reverb stompbox that only does one sound as opposed to 10 modes or whatever but does this clank and pop all the time cus my DeVille's spring reverb was great and didn't clank like that.

Thanks for this - the first useful demo of the pedal for surf I've found!

Brilliant!

hi very close! actually the sound of the REAL 63 reverb tank can also be achieved with FRV1 by going beyond 1-1-11.... the demo was great bec you it features same settings of the knobs :) but again the sound of the REAL 63 reverb here can be emulated by the FRV1 on a different knob settings... thanks

Thanks so much for the Surf-oriented demo. I have one on the way and I think it'll do a great job for my purposes.

tahnks for the great demo! this is the best I've heard s far. Especially because you compare it with the real thing. The Fender Tube Reverb sounds better, but this is only noticeable in a direct shoot-out, so the Boss Pedal is close enough for me...
