Surfy Industries SurfyBear Compact V1.1 Reverb Pedal - Black

The Surfy Industries SurfyBear Compact V1.1 reverb effects pedal delivers the classic sound of 1960s spring reverb in a rugged, pedalboard-ready format. Using an Accutronics Type 8 spring pan, this unit eschews digital simulation in favor of the authentic splash and drip of true analog reverb. The dual mixer control lets you switch between two different reverb blends on the fly—a real advantage during live sets. The compact design easily slips into any signal chain, and the sturdy aluminum body is built to hold up to the rigors of demanding touring schedules. If you're looking for vintage-style spring reverb without having to haul heavy rack gear, this pedal delivers that authentic, swirling sound in a portable package.

Real Spring Reverb Pan Recreates Classic Drip

The SurfyBear Compact uses a genuine Accutronics spring pan, a key element for the signature splash and drip players expect from vintage reverb. JFET transistors replace the original tube design, giving you the classic warmth and decay of analog circuitry without the upkeep. As you play, the pan moves in response to your picking attack, creating that "drippy" surf effect with every note. The sound sits naturally in the mix, adding depth and character that digital reverbs rarely match.

Dual Mixer Controls Swap Reverb Blends Instantly

With two independent mixer knobs, the SurfyBear Compact allows you to preset two different reverb levels and toggle between them. This switch is especially useful when jumping from subtle ambience to a deep, lush wash mid-song. The simple footswitch keeps your flow uninterrupted and adds an extra layer of performance control. It's a thoughtful innovation for creative players, allowing for seamless transitions between sounds during live sets.

Decay and Boost Controls Dial In Your Reverb and Volume

This unit adds decay and clean boost controls for more precise sound shaping. Decay adjusts how long the reverb tail lasts, from short bursts to long trails. The boost raises your output when the effect is active, so there's no drop in volume as you stomp the pedal. All controls sit on the top panel for fast access, so you can tweak settings without looking away from your instrument.

Aluminum Body Delivers Road-Ready Durability

The SurfyBear Compact is encased in a sturdy aluminum housing, protecting the spring pan and electronics from knocks and drops. Measuring just 9.5" x 4.5" x 2", the unit fits most pedalboards and travel cases. True-bypass switching means your dry tone stays pure when the effect is off, and the build holds up to frequent setup and teardown on the road. A 12V DC power adapter comes included for hassle-free connection.

A Compact Spring Reverb Pedal With Vintage-Inspired Sound

If you're in search of real spring reverb that plays well with modern pedalboard setups, the Surfy Industries SurfyBear Compact V1.1 reverb effects pedal delivers the punch, character and portability you need to take your rig to the next level. The authentic spring pan, dual mixer and decay features help you shape a signature sound and keep it consistent from studio to stage. Every stomp delivers focused, old-school reverb that stands out in the mix and wraps your sound in classic, '60s-inspired drip.
