Excellent and useful comparison. Thank you. I own the UA Golden Reverberator and it is absolutely musical. The plate and Hall settings are equally fabulous and being able to save an alternate more ambient reverb setting is wonderful! Home run. ABSOLUTELY LOVE this pedal!

Thanks for the video. I had a flint and sold it when I got my VintageSoundAmps Vintage 15 which had a great reverb and tremolo. FF and decided to buy a Roland JC-22 which can accept stereo in the front end and in the effects loop so I bought back the Flint. I will never sell that pedal again. 3 trems and 3 verbs!

I've had the Holy grail on my board for over ten years. It's the only reverb pedal I've had that never gets in the way of overdrive or boosts, and plays nice with both pre-and-power tube distortion.

Thanks for your work on this well done. I am considering buying the Flint or the Golden. The Golden to my ears sounds the most natural and has a real warm tone and the fact that you can have two sounds is awesome. Thank you.

@@BuddaGuedes My pleasure. Ever thought about doing one of these with comps? Would be great to hear your thoughts on them (approaches, how you'd use them with different guitars/amps, stacking, etc) and I bet it'd sound great with your new Tele. Personally, I'm a big OE cali76 fan...

I have the Flint but I have to admit that the new Holy Grail NEO rules when it comes to the spring sound. The UAD is nice too. The problem with the FRV-1 is that it's impossible to use it in conjunction with a tremolo, so despite all the hype, it is not a great pedal. (I had one, sold it happily.) By the way the Keeley Verb o' Trem pedal has a killer spring reverb sound, easily on pair with the Flint.

@@BuddaGuedes Because I tried the Supa Trem and TR-2 after and before the FRV-1 and the sound was not even close to the Flint. I didn't understand why. Sounded nothing like an amp with trem and reverb.
