Kuz Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 I personally like to use pedals when playing live to keep my volume in check, but I love recording without them. Bingo, from the Pro!
tulk1 Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 I was playing in their face last night at a wedding. The first table was less than 5 feet in front of my amp. Probably only 4 feet from me. Definitely, in your face playing!

Hfan Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 I always liked a touch of reverb. Had a revalation when I got my first tweed circuit a 5E3 Lil Dawg..no reverb and I didn't miss it. I am somewhat corrupted though, I still ponder getting a Topanga reverb pedal and trying it with the tweed.
jrfreed Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Interesting thread...being a jazz player I have always used reverb, but over time less and less. I just bought a Bassman and not missing reverb in the least. Same goes for pedals as I used to have about 4 in the chain. Tremelo, chorus, compressor and volume but now nothing. Heritage 530 into a Fender Bassman and my tone is super clean and articulate
barrymclark Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 I like effects. ... but just a touch to give that 'in a room' sound where maybe without them is a little too dry. In some rooms, it sounds great without effects.
AP515 Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 I like reverb. Always have it on the clean channel. Not too much, maybe at 4.
AP515 Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 This might be the place for this. Find out which pedal you are... http://reverb.com/blog/quiz-which-classic-guitar-effect-are-you I did it twice. The first time I was a tape delay, the second a reverb.... figures...

tulk1 Posted July 22, 2014 Posted July 22, 2014 Apparently I'm an old beat up, shredded Market Electronics Echoplex. I'm cool with that. And yeah, sorta matches how I've been feeling lately.
Trouble Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 Ive played in some halls that made me think about how I might build an anti reverb device. You couldnt fit enough soft people in these halls to suck up the reverb. Know what you mean, gets so spacey you cant hear what's going on. I got to see the flipside to that a few weeks ago, played a gig in a hotel conference room the room was so dry I was using delay on top of reverb sometimes, room wasn't full either just lots of carpet and a high ceiling with that noise cancelling tile stuff. Sucked.
bolero Posted July 23, 2014 Posted July 23, 2014 I dunno if I'd call that "in your face"...it's more just straight into the amp? ...and if you really want to be a man, use a NMV amp!! this is "in your face":

yoslate Posted July 24, 2014 Posted July 24, 2014 ...and I am a reverb tank. Not too shocking. That's two of us....
