The Boss RV-3 is a really fun pedal, and the combinations and settings of reverb and delay are pretty much endless. There are 3 Delay modes offering times up to 2,000ms, plus 4 Reverb modes with simultaneous delay, ranging from 32 to 1,000ms and using Room, Hall and Plate reverb types. Time and Mode knobs let you select how much of each effect you want in the mix, while the Balance and Tone knobs let you customize the sound coming through your chain.

There are a TON of different options when using this pedal, anything from short, slappy reverb to long, beautiful delays, and everything in between. Being able to add a little reverb to the delay makes for an exciting approach to playing, I use it a lot on more reggae-inspired chords and note runs, but it can be used for many applications. The RV-5 is the newer version, but most guitar folks swear by this model, and I can’t blame ’em one bit.
