Catalinbread Talisman Ghost Reverb Effects Pedal White and Black

The Catalinbread Talisman Ghost reverb pedal takes the classic plate sound into far more imaginative territory, capturing the haunting movement of two EMT 140 units working together and pushing it into a modern, atmospheric realm. Its reverb trails shimmer with a gentle, chorus-like modulation applied only to the decay, creating a sense of motion that blooms behind your playing without clouding the dry signal. With controls that let you shape everything from tight, room-like reflections to endlessly drifting ambience, the Talisman Ghost feels equally at home in cinematic soundscapes, textural clean passages, and expressive lead work. It’s a fresh, creative take on plate reverb—familiar enough to anchor your tone, yet expansive enough to take it somewhere entirely new.

Dual Plate Simulation Adds Textural Modulation

At the heart of the Talisman Ghost is its unique ability to simulate two EMT 140 plate reverbs running in modulated tandem. This configuration generates a chorus-like effect that transforms traditional plate reverb into a dynamic, evolving texture. The modulation, applied only to the reverb tail, creates a stunning sense of movement and depth, ideal for ambient soundscapes or enhancing clean and distorted tones alike. This dual-plate innovation allows players to explore new dimensions of reverb not possible with vintage equipment.

Time and Pre-Delay for Custom Reverb Shaping

The Talisman Ghost offers precise control over the reverb decay with its TIME knob, which ranges from short, room-like reflections to expansive, near-infinite tails. The PRE-DELAY control introduces a delay between your dry signal and the onset of reverb reflections, up to 100ms. This lets you separate your guitar tone from the reverb tail, ensuring clarity and definition in dense mixes or live band settings. Together, these controls enable players to tailor their reverb for any musical need.

Simple Layout for Effortless Control

This reverb pedal features a user-friendly layout that includes MIX, TIME, PRE-DELAY, and VOL knobs, giving players all the tools needed for sound design. The MIX knob adjusts the wet/dry blend, while VOL ensures the output remains balanced in your signal chain. Each control is highly responsive and intuitive, making it easy to find the perfect settings quickly. Whether you're dialing in subtle reverb or building expansive sonic layers, the Talisman Ghost puts everything at your fingertips.
