[Harp-L] Digitech RP150 as reverb

[Richard Hunter <turtlehill@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all,

I discovered this week that the Digitech RP150 has all the same reverbs, and most of the delays, that go into the RP250 and RP350.  RP150s sell new for $99, and I've seen them used in excellent condition for under $70.  That's a really good price for a floor-pedal with 5 very good reverbs and about as many very good delays, especially considering that you can use both the delay and the reverb at the same time.  Never mind the other FX in the box--it's a great price for the 'verbs and delays alone.

I don't recommend the RP150 as your go-to amp modeling device, because it doesn't have the footpedal controller that the 250 and 350 have, and that footpedal is extremely useful.  But if all you want is 'verbs and delays, it's a good buy.  I believe Slim Heilpern uses it for exactly that purpose.  Now I know why.

regards, Richard Hunter
