Spring Reverb
The standalone spring tank became a staple of surf and spaghetti-
western music that developed in the ‘60s� The Spring reverb allows for
complete customization from warm and mellow to splashy and dripping
with its Tone and Mix Controls, Dwell parameter, and selectable number
of springs�
