Is reverb really necessary? How many of you have one?

i really need it.

it stays on all the time.

my amp doesnt have it so i use a holy grail.

 

i dont do crazy things with it. normally just a bit of spring type reverb.

 

if i played clean with only reverb on and asked someone what effects were there most would say none.

but as soon as i turn it off people look at me funny like what the hell just happened.

i use heavy reverb. i'm in a post-rock/ambient band and i think its pretty key to our sound.

 

 

i've actually considered getting another one for quite awhile even. running both at once sometimes. i'd love to hear what that sounds like.

i use the reverb built into my pro reverb but i think it tends to get lost a little bit when playing alongside keys and 2 other guitars. i think delay is a better effect for cutting through the rest of the band during solos.

It depends on the venue for me.....I like it just to add a little body to solo work and thats about it....but if a venue is very "live" I don't bother...

 

My Fenders don't have reverb, but the places we tend to play are naturally reverberous. I mean, you could buy a nice rack reverb unit to model what the room you're playing does for you already... Reverb while you're playing at home is a must, though.
