T-Rex Engineering Whirly Verb Reverb is a peculiar pedal that found its place among our favorites as not just strictly a reverb pedal, but a broader effect that can help any player reach maximum sonic potential and find that signature tone we all strive for.

This pedal is most definitely different and not for everyone's taste, but it's still nowhere near low quality or poor sounding. On the contrary, it's a great pedal with a distinctive sound, and we invite you to inspect this fella a bit further and see how well it suits ya!

Features

First of all, this pedal features one of the finest casings we've seen in a while in this price range. The build quality is on very high level, and the metal case is really capable of taking a punch or two. Additionally, we like the blue finish and believe that the whirly boy here will look good in anyone's pedal-board.

Secondly, this is NOT just a reverb pedal. As you can see from the very first glance, the stompbox also has a modulation feature, making it a 2-in-1 type or product. Both effects have individual on/off foot-switches, allowing you to use them as entirely separate pedals. Additional standard stuff includes a 9VDC power input, along with a set of one In and one Out plug.

Control

The controls are actually quite straightforward and easy to grasp – four knobs, two for each of the effects – Reverb, Decay, Modulation and Volume. Let's see now…

Reverb – Plain and simple, this knob adjusts the level of reverb effect that will be present in your audio output. The higher you dial it in, the more sonic space reverb will occupy.

Decay – This knob is used to control the length of reverb, or the amount of echo. The more you add it, the fuller the sound will be, giving an impression that you are playing in larger and larger rooms.

Modulation – This one is pretty similar in concept to the Reverb knob, except that it does the same thing to modulation effect. The more you crank it up, the wilder it gets.

Volume – This one determines the power of modulation and the effect to which will alter the final sonic output.

Performance
The word of the day here is experimental. If you are looking just for a reverb effect – yes, there are better options. This one is most certainly solid, but the controls are too limited and you can get a better bang for the buck elsewhere. However, it's the modulation effect that makes the T-Rex stand out.

It's absolutely unique and if you see the combo offered by this pedal as something that can help you craft your staple sound, then just go for it. It's spacey, it's whirly, it's wild!

Conclusion

Overall, this is not a pedal for everyone, but it is something that you can use to create a memorable tone. Regardless of your sound preferences, this stompbox features high-quality build and a high-quality sound, meaning that even if you don't absolutely love it, it's always going to be a solid purchase. Take a walk on the wild side!
