Strymon Blue Sky Reverberator
I know a few people have them. Are they worth the price? Do you use them often. An amazing number of great lush tone options. I could see wasting lots of times doing simple arpeggios.

I really like mine...I especially like how it has the Low and High Contour(Cut) controls...really allows me to fine tune the verb to whatever guitar/amp set up I'm using...another great feature is the "preset" switch...sometimes I have to backline an amp(some without verb)..and I can have 1 preset that's just a mild amp verb and another that's pretty drenched for the surf stuff...all in all it's a very good box(for being digital)...I highly recommend it...

I haven't tried one yet, but I sure do like the El Capi a lot. I suspect it gets ridiculously expensive being a Strymon fan!

I've got one and dig it. It's real claim to fame is the plate reverb, so if you're into that, it's quite yummy. If all you want is simple reverb, the Wet is probably a better (and simpler) choice. Some people say that it sounds better too. I'm a "little bit goes a long way" guy when it comes to reverb, and with a little bit, I don't really hear a difference in most of the 'verb pedals on the simple settings.
I bought mine because I *love* my El Cap. I think it's overkill for my needs, but other than that, I have no complaints.
