In this video, I’m reviewing the Crazy Tube Circuits White Whale Jr, an incredible analog reverb and tremolo combo pedal that features a real spring reverb tank. We’ll dive into the lush, vintage tones and see why this might be the ultimate reverb and tremolo pedal for your rig. If you're looking for authentic spring reverb without the bulk of a full-sized unit, the White Whale Jr is a no-brainer for upgrading any amp.
The Goal:
The onboard reverb on many Marshall amplifiers can often leave a lot to be desired, especially if you're looking for that authentic, splashy surf sound. In this video, I take a look at the Crazy Tube Circuits White Whale, a real spring reverb and tremolo pedal, to see if it can provide the ultimate fix for lack lustre amp reverb.
We dive into a side-by-side comparison to hear the difference between the stock internal reverb and the lush, analog spring tones of the White Whale. Whether you're a Marshall owner looking for an upgrade or a fan of classic spring reverb, this pedal might be the missing link for your setup.
