Looking for advice on what reverb and delay units to get.

For a good budget delay the Ibanez DE7 is a very versatile delay/echo - and unlike the suggestions on this board is within your budget.

I read good stuff about this one on gilmourish.com, seems to be bang great for the buck.

I am very happy with my Reel Echo, it's cheap build but sounds very warm and thick.

STAY AWAY FROM THE LINE6 SINGLE STOMPBOXES!!

I had two - Space Chorus and Echo Park - and they are very noisy, very shite.

At present, my only delay is an old DD-2 and it's $%&#ing gorgeous and I'm looking to team that with an RE-20 or a BYOC digital delay which is a clone of the awesome Digilog.

Thanks again for the suggestions. Very helpful indeed.

I could use my Boss GT-6 but I really want to move away from multi effect units. The GT-6 is pretty good for reverb and delay but it has a quality that I find a little too clean. It's fine for wedding covers etc but not for the Blues/Classic Rock vibe that I'm looking for.

An error on my part about the BOss GT-6. It can't be used for just certain effects without affecting the overall tone of the amplifier.

Basically it sucks amp tone - so I wont be attempting to use that  :shock:

Another good word for the Danelectro 'Reel Echo' here, as well as the Electro-Harmonix " Holy Grail".

They sound nice and warm /   'natural' to me.

The EHX Holy Grail and Ibanez DE 7 are looking good for me so far.

Before I commit and go out and get them, I'm going to do a clip using a combination of the VOX AD30VT and Boss BR900CD onboard effects. I'll put it up for scrutiny in the Players section and see what happens.
