INTRODUCTION

Recreating the classic sounds of a spring reverb unit, the Palmer Vintage Reverb provides extensive 
control. Decay lets you dial in reverb length from a subtle bounce to cavernous tails, a tone selector adds 
natural warmth or splashy brightness, and mix blends in the effect with the dry signal. The compact pedal 
features a heavy-duty footswitch and runs on a 9V battery or optional power adapter, e.g. Palmer PW9V.

• Vintage spring reverb sounds
• Decay and mix controls

WORKING WITH THE PEPREVERB

1

 DECAY

Controls the length of the reverb tail from zero to maximum for large, cavernous depths.

2

 TONE

Sets the sound of the reverb from dark to bright. In the NORMAL position no reverb tone coloring is added.

3

 MIX

Adjusts the ratio of the direct and reverb signals from fully dry (direct signal only, MIN position) to fully wet 
(reverb signal only, MAX position).

4

 LED STATUS INDICATOR

Lights when the effect is switched on. This LED also doubles as battery level indicator when the pedal is 
battery powered. When the LED goes dim or no longer lights while the effect is activated the battery is
drained and needs replacing.

5

 FOOTSWICH

Activates the effect or switches the pedal to bypass mode.

6

PW9V). Please refer to “POWER REQUIREMENTS” for details.

8
