Boss FRV-1 '63 Fender Reverb
Anonymous

Reverb LIF-1 Legends series, emulating the sounds of the Fender 63 Reverb Tank with COSM technology and offers the same controls, Mixer that supports level of effect, Dwell for its intensity and tone for the color of the reverb.
Case type Boss, 9V battery and PSU.

UTILIZATION

Qd I even read the manual to be on the role of knob Dwell because it affects the decay, (the length of reverb) but also on its volume and intensity.
You have to make sharp adjustments to get the desired sound and the management of Mix-Dwell requires some tact to give the best signal-to-end.

SOUND QUALITY

I have not tried Reverb Tank Fender original, I can not compare even if on paper they are not comparable in any way anything that given the design but the result of modulation MSOC can do wonders. ..
In any case it gives direct reverb surf with a beautiful drip, very convincing, Metallica wish with a decay more or less long knob thanks to Dwell, the demos that I could see are very loyal.
But!
She also knows how to bcp softer and there it was my big surprise.
All played on the tone. At the mini, the rehearsals are very dark like a Hall reverb but with a particular decay. By increasing the color tone is becoming more and you get to the big Spring Reverb Fender well.
This pedal in any case does not déivre its cathedral, but this is not what we asked.
It does not distort the signal and this one does not lose volume if you want a very noticeable effect, there or else as the Holy Grail exellente drown the sound a bit intense for a spring.

OVERALL OPINION

I was looking for convincing spring reverb type 60's, mission accomplished! I earn more versatility that I had no idea what also makes more room reverb easy to mix for rhythm and blues others, all at a price not too bad, bravo.
