Crafted with a sleek all-metal chassis, four-knob interface layout consisting of depth, rate, blend, and decay, and a three-mode switch each with a uniquely modulated reverb style, the Keeley Vibe-O-Verb Ambient Reverb summons sounds never before dreamt on a pedalboard. From the vintage tremolo-tinged verb of the Harmonic mode to the chorus-y spaced-out feel of the Vibrato to the morphing, modulated Phaser mode, this pedal's bread and butter is the fringe reverb only hinted at by other pedals. The Vibe-O-Verb is a welcome companion when navigating experimental soundscapes and crafting a world of ambience all your own. This is a double here at the Loft so off it goes in our Spring cleaning!
