TonyCream Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 Does anyone use a reverb pedal for their bass? I've found it to be quite an uncommon link in the effects chain when speaking to most bass players; as if it's almost considered to be a bit of a taboo in some cases? I've been using the Soundblox 2 Dimension Reverb now for a couple of years and it's hands down my favourite pedal, sometimes it's the only pedal I use. Anyone out there like myself? What do you use?

BassBus Posted March 19, 2017 Share Posted March 19, 2017 I use reverb all the time. Mind you I don't play bass in the conventional way. TC Hall of Fame and Strymon Big Sky along with all sorts of other effects. Makes some wonderful sounds but not everyone will get what I do.

If this is the type of stuff you mean I'd be interested to here!

uncle psychosis Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Personally I don't like reverb on bass but I'm a big fan of the Digitech Polara on guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pbasspecial Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 Tom from COG built me a reverb/chorus pedal. Sounds fantastic. Especially together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
