Strymon blueSky Reverberator Pedal

BlueSky is an unbelievable reverb pedal. It’s probably the best sounding and most versatile reverb pedal that I’ve used. The pedal is a stereo one so it has two ¼” connections for both input and output and is powered by a nine volt power supply. It’s not rackable at all since it’s a stomp box.

The sound of the BlueSky is some of the smoothest reverb I’ve heard come out of any device. It’s stunning how accurate it sounds and what’s more is its amazing versatility between the three reverb types and modes. It has a depth to it that I haven’t heard in any pedals before and only seems to be present in the real deal in things like true plate and spring reverbs.

The setup of this pedal is extremely easy, as is getting a good sound out of it. It has five knobs - one for to choose the type of reverb, one for tone, one for time, one for decay, and one of mix. These controls are basic and manipulating it is easy. Types of reverb include hall, chamber, gate, spring, and plate.

The BlueSky is the best sounding reverb unit I’ve used. It isn't cheap for a pedal but you pay for the best in ultimate control, fidelity, and versatility in reverb sound. It’s a pro’s pedal but that doesn’t mean us in the great unwashed masses can’t at least try it an pretend we are one of those "special people."

I was never really pleased with the reverb tank on my Blues Jr...this thing was well worth the money! You can spend hours playing with it and dialing in the perfect reverb sound. It'll do anything from subtle surf rock spring reverb to insane spacey shimmers. Not cheap, but you really get what you pay for!

The legends told of this pedal are all true. It is absolutely without a doubt the nicest sounding reverb pedal I have ever heard. The tones and pads you can lay down with this thing are so beautiful and add so so much if you know how to use it. Strymon has always made quality stuff and this is no different. Although the price is high I still rate it 5 stars because it was worth every penny in my opinion. The shimmer effect is amazing and on max decay you can create some really beautiful ethereal sounds. Pair it with a looper and you can make your own orchestra with just your guitar. One of my favorite purchases ever!

The best reverb you can find. Period.

Best reverb pedal on the market...

I've gone through many reverb units. This will be the last one I buy

This is a little more costly than your average pedal but if you love reverb you will be smitten with this! There are so many different sounds you can get out of one box, and the quality of sound is unbelievable! The added 'favourites' button also essentially makes it like two pedals in one!

What i realize while using this pedal, is that The bluesky cuts off some of the gain/overdirve/drive/distort which is sent to it. On my chain, i run my guitar through a drive pedal into a delay than into the bluesky. I realize the bluesky roundoffs the drive a little bit. Which is actually great to me. it blends the sound well. Especially when you are running a cheap drive on your signal chain which is not as good sounding as a OCD or Fulltone, the bluesky just beautifies anything. I could say it grinds the rough edges of the driven signal.

my favorite combination from this pedal is the Plate and Mod. It gives a brighter modulated reverb compared to the room and mod which gives a deeper reverb.

I love the easy way this thing works, you can dial great tones in a second. I don't really use the Shimmer feature that everyone likes, but it sounds great. Lots of combinations and versatility.

I like this reverb pedal. it's usually my main verb of sorts and i use it a lot.
