Boss finally did it, the FRV-1 Fender Reverb pedal:
http://www.bossus.com/gear/productdetai ... uctId=1021I must say that they did a fantastic job on the Roland RE-20 Space Echo pedal. And the official license on the classic gives the thang some credibility. If this is a quality product like it, then I'm interested. I have a tube reverb unit, but a pedal would be nice and handy when gigging.

While I'm not really into digital guitar gear at all, if they did a good job on it, it might be handy thing to have for backup, flying, etc...
Have to say I think Trovato's doing a really bad job demo-ing it, I think a lot of people would want to hear whether it can do the full-on splashy surf thing, and his lame half-assed version of something vaguely resembling "pipeline" isn't really working for that.

From what I can tell it's a nice pedal, but it doesn't splash or drip. I've got the RE-20 Space Echo and I like it enough that I sold my RE-101 tape Space Echo, but I don't see that happening with my outboard tank.

Yeah, that's the thing that will determine if this pedal is special or not... I didn't listen to the samples (I usually don't), I'll just wait when I get to test one of these.

If I kick it, will it give me an opening crash for Wipeout?
