I'm still trying to figure out which amp to choose. My question is if I buy a Supro Thunderbolt(no reverb), are there any reverb pedals that do a nice job?

Thanks, Medman

I have an Alesis Microverb II 1/3 rack unit that I really like.

While not specifically a Reverb pedal, my favorite is the Morley
Echo Plus (ECV) which has delay settings on it, as well as Chorus and Vibrato. It can be dialed in to give you a Reverb sound. It was made about 7 years ago, supposedly only 250 were manufactured. Analogman may have one.

The Little Lanilei spring reverb pedal is the bomb! It's not cheap (got mine for $180), but it blows away digital reverb.

I recently got the Little Lanalei too and I think its great! I believe its the only pedal out there that has an actual 8" reverb pan in it. It may not sound as good as a great long pan but it sure sounds better than digital reverb to my ears. I dont use an effects loop so for pluggin straight into the front I like this one a lot. And you can run it with a battery and its dead quiet. A couple problems with it though. If you crank the amp and try to crank the reverb way up you could have feedback problems. I only use a drop of reverb so that wasnt an issue for me. The other thing is that its true bypass which is great, so in line and turned off, there is no signal loss. What bugged me was when you step on the button to turn it on, there is a slight drop in guitar volume and balls. Tris from Songworks told me to change the drive pot from 250K to 1Meg and it did the trick. No volume drop! Im not sure why they dont do that in the first place, maybe they like the taper of the 250.

The strange thing about the feedback with the pedal is that it doesn't seem to happen when there are other pedals in the path.
