A new COSM based Reverb pedal made in conjunction with Fender, to recreate the sound of the classic valve Fender Reverb - a standalone reverberator with valves and springs that some people would kill for. Thats what we're looking at here.

Now, in the continuing spirit of partnership - Roland and Fender have been working on a number of projects together, this pedal has taken the sound of the original Fender unit, and crammed it into a diminutive Boss stomp.

We had a couple of great demos from Alex Hutchings and Robert Castellani who showed us what it could do. Both of who are sh*t hot players by the way, stick around to the end to hear Alex really rip it up.

  • Recreates the legendary sound of the 1963 Fender® Reverb via COSM technology
  • Easy operation with three classic controls for Dwell, Tone, and Mix for creating sounds from buttery warmth to sparkling twang
  • Cool, retro appearance
  • Road-tough BOSS metal construction

Expected to ship sometime in end of August (in the UK) at £139 (again UK).

The Reverb sounded really nice, however it would have been interesting to hear a long tail and a short tail and hear the whole versatility of the reverb... usually they forget to demo the products in the demos..
