Our Fave Real Spring Reverb Pedal? [Surfy Bear, Echo Fix, White Whale, Headroom & Spring King]

If you must have springs – and you MUST – which one would you choose? Welcome to the show. Yes we’ve done spring reverbs before, but there are a couple of interesting, relatively recent entrants to the market. So it’s time to get springy once again. Crazy Tube Circuits has updated the White Whale to V2 and Echo Fix has introduced its own surprisingly compact, real spring ’verb. Dan loves the Headroom, I love the Surfy Bear and – judging by the comments in the last video – you all love the Dano Spring King! You know the deal, we’ll have a blast through all of ’em and see what we think. Enjoy the show! - Why no digital spring reverb pedal? We wouldn’t choose one over a real spring. Ever. Digital is of course fantastic for plates, rooms and all the weird-beardy stuff, and we use those all the time. - Why don’t you have the big Fender tube one? They’re rare, we couldn’t find one to borrow and we wouldn’t buy one with our own money. Sorta the same for the Victoria Reverberato. Except we probably would. - Why didn’t you include the Game Changer Light Pedal? Erm, not entirely sure. Should have been here really. We do have one and we have featured it before: Enjoy the episode!
