(Searching for "reverb" or any other pedal is impossible thanks to reverb.com )
I bought a Keeley Delay Workstation to hopefully combine reverb and delay into one pedal and it sounds like shit. Tinny synthetic garbage. It's possible I don't know how to use reverb properly, but I'm bummed.
What does the ILF hivemind prefer? What's a good analog reverb that sounds nice and rich?
Right now I'd say it's a toss up between the Ezhi and Aka T-verb, Boss RV500 and H9. There are a ton of good ones though. Reverb is probably my favorite effect after fuzz and delay.

Love the bloodmoon. My friend has mine and now I really want it back... have a ghost echo and it seems to always find a place on my board. Lately I like somewhat subtle reverbs that I can pair with delays to bring the extreme caverns instead of just a huge reverb.

Depending on how you define analog, there won't be much apart from a few real spring reverbs.
But reverb is something better done digitally anyway, and to be honest almost any recent reverb pedal is more than enough for 90% of the needs of almost everybody...
If you want something that has a very specific character (which can mean having some overdrive/fuzz or delay in the same box) then there are interesting options like the RM-1N, Dispatch Master, etc. though.
I'm starting to think I'm just not very good at using reverb, or I'm expecting something else. I've got a Holy Grail, HOF2, Caverns V2, and Delay Workstation and they all sound metallic and thin when ever I get them to a level I can hear. I was assuming an "analog" would be warm and rich, but wasn't really aware that analog delays weren't really the norm anymore. A lot of the stuff posted here sounds good though, so this is something to go off of.
I guess chasing a specific guitar tone is better than chasing a white dragon though, and it sure beats thinking about work.
