These pedals started appearing a few years back - fairly reasonably priced, they seem fairly well built, and look pretty classy. Seems that Fender have gone for some of the similar territory and vibe that Strymon cover - so when Lenny bought me this for father's day I wanted to check it out!

I've decided to make it possible to grab both my Helix/HX Stomp bundles (the expression bundle with freeze presets has always been separate) together - www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr... - I will then email you a link to both bundles!

You play the most beautiful chord voicings, really highlighting the shimmer effects; so musical and tasteful playing. I'm glad to have found your awesome content. Fender did a great job with this pedal. It's certainly no Strymon, but it's definitely good!
Your channel is amazing, my friend! It's a gold mine of inspiration and knowledge. I love it!
I have the Fender Reflecting Pool. It's the Marine Reverb and the Delay pedal from this line. A lot of features for $200 used.
Wasn't aware of this pedal, thanks for making this video!!
I'm a huge fan of Fender's fuzz pedals from this line. They really killed it and don't get as much recognition as they should.
Fender tends to rebrand other companies pedals and charge way more for it.
The intro was really cool🙂 I like the sound of the pedal. I bought the Strymon Flint a while back and it does what I like. I don’t want to end up with a pile of different reverb pedals lol. That Slo has kinda got me thinking though😅
I've used this pedal for a couple of years now, really like it
Yeh? I think the Hall/Modulated Reverb sound really decent
@@johnnathancordy the hall setting on variation 2 is my favourite sound from this pedal
Have you tried out the Mooer ocean machine? It’s two delays and a reverb with the ability to change the order of effects, presets, and looping while switching effects
I haven't played a fender pedal yet, no doubt they would be underappreciated, pedal aficionados love the unique/obscure. Also its been a long time since we've seen dogs John, if we could fix that.
The Keeley Delay workstation is a very overlooked pedal ...it has Stereo/mono output(Mono input), EXP jack, and a few other bells & whistles. If you happen to come across one John, would you try it out?
A pedal for your first Fathers Day?! Bless Lenny! -Tom
She's good like that!!!
Great pedal I had one years ago but had to part with it😢 might buy another. Financial struggles at the time
I do own a fender pugilist pedal. Its a very good distortion. It cleans very well like an overdrive. I believe the marine layer sounds good too
Awesome I saw Brent Mason in a rig rundown & he had the Fender Treverb & raved about it.
Yeh I think Johnny Marr is using a Marine Layer too?
I've been wondering for a while now where you set your tone controls, if you back it off a little or full-up.
Full up generally!
Hi John - I have this pedal, and like it very much. It's simple and sounds good. I use it only as an alternative to my amp's reverb tank, so it's not an "always on" type of pedal. I have never used a Strymon so I can't offer an opinion on it.
The only major complaint I have is the jewel light, it's blindingly bright to the point of being disorientating in a dimly-lit room. A minor complaint is that the flip door for the battery, although clever, feels fragile. Thankfully it's unneeded as I have a power supply on my pedal board.
In my opinion, the star from this series of Fender pedals is called "The Bends", it's a compressor that gives me exactly what I want. However, I haven't tried them all, so...
BTW, love your videos!
Simple and sounds good! Sounds about right!! That jewel lamp is a bit strong init haha
I feel ya on the blinding light. My Wampler Echo is the same and I have yellow electrical tape over them its so bad.
Marine Layer Reverb? Like the sound of a submarine banging? Too soon Johnny
Sounds damn good
There truly tons of reverb pedals out there and many compete with strymon reverb engines. VENTRIS from Source audio is amazing. And Meris has a bunch that blow strymon out of the water. I’m skeptical though open minded about Fender entries in this game.
BTW Strymon (or someone at Strymon) is designing these pedals for Fender.
sounds beautiful but Strymon still makes the best reverb pedals. however the Chase Bliss Dark World is an epic reverb pedal as well.
I think you get much more out of your Helix stomp and xl. And your favorite from what I can tell is almost always PLATE, without that, well it is one of my favorites for sure.
I have the marine layer and it's great. Aaaalmost as good as a Strymon Bluesky, but only half the price.
The Cloudburst is way better. And stereo! Good video !
I use and love the Strymon Cloudburst…worth every cent. Also have and use the shimmer of the EHX Canyon reverb looper, but it stays on shimmer.
This pedal NOT being stereo seems like a missed opportunity.
They make a version of this that combines the Marine Layer and Mirror Image delay (with a few minor improvements), and it is stereo. A bit pricey at 350 tho...
Fender's DSP seems to have been underrated for many years. Have owned the Super Champ x2 head for years and especially some of the Fender models in there are really good. Combined with the 6v6 tube power section and a proper cab, it's legit.
Paid £79 for mine new. It was in the sale.
A/B them both and Strymon is still king
Fender is doing a good thing investing in you.
Probably not much in it if it's a good one? How heavy is the Vintera?
If I needed a stereo reverb I’d use something in the Stomp.
Yeh - I think the Dynamic Plate might be my favourite reverb going whether digital/pedal or whatever anyway?
@@johnnathancordyit is good. That said my MLR has been key to the sound of my last three albums. I don’t see that changing anytime soon.
A very unsung pedal is the MOOER R7 X2 which has 14 reverb algorithms, is stereo, saves a preset for each is at about the same price point and has a infinite button. It's just not my favorite color for a pedal.
THANKS for the suggestion - sounds promising!!
Sounds way more useful for sure. presets, PLATE, and lots of variety, I can live with the Colors.
It looks like a generic design, similar to the Joyo Atmosphere pedal with the usual multi type knob and the rest is a similar layout. I wonder if these pedals are made in Indonesia or China.
Made in China
