Ease of Use: I was pretty intimadated at first, 5 knobs, 1 switch and hundreds of possible settings. Then I opened the manual, and it had the exact tone I was looking for: surf. This pedal does many things, and all of them are good, it even has echo, so I won't have to buy an echo pedal. Once you read the manual, it will take you a little while to get a sound you like, but once you do, you'll love it. I know I do. // 8
Sound: I play through an Epiphone Les Paul, a Fender bass amp (because my guitar amp is broken) and it sounds very good. This pedal has no noise or feedback, it's very clear, and it sounds strong, depending on how much reverb you add to the mix, it can be very weak, or so strong you can barely hear yourself play, but I keep it at right at the point where the sound becomes quiet, but not quiet, the room setting reminds me of a garage band, the '63 Spring, my favorite is for surf. Using this, I can make my guitar sound like Dick Dale or the Ventures walked into the room. It's pretty cool with distortion. Octo sounds like a keyboard is backing you up, for the band without keyboardist. // 10
Reliability & Durability: The Verbzilla is a Line 6, so it's about 3x8 inches and pretty heavy, but once you Pick it up, you won't want to put it down. I would use this anywhere, at a school function, or a concert, wherever I can play it. The only downside to the is series of pedal is the battery life, Tonecores will go for about three hours on one 9v battery. Buy the adapter. Otherwise this pedal is great for any music, even country! Best reverb out there short of a Vintage amp. // 8
Impression: I play just about anything, so this pedal is great. I've been playing guitar for about 6 months, and I'm pretty good. I wish I asked about an adapter, though. God forbid it was stolen, I would purchase it as fast as possible. You can't really hate this pedal, I love it. The best feature being '63 Spring. I checked many reverbs out, and his was the best one, for the thousandth time, I purchased it for the '63 Spring Reverb. Buy it. // 10
