Laney Black Country Customs Secret Path Reverb

Laney · pedal

The Laney Black Country Customs Secret Path is a boutique, UK-handcrafted reverb pedal offering lush spring, plate, and ambient shimmer sounds with a clean four-knob interface. Its spring algorithm is drippy, boingy, and warm like a real tank, the plate mode is smoother and more studio-like, and the Secret Path mode conjures long, evolving ambient reverbs. Pre-delay sets the reverb's attack, Size scales from intimate rooms to expansive halls, and Volume and Tone shape output and tonality. Holding the footswitch engages an enhanced mode that adds modulation to the spring and plate voices and an ethereal shimmer to the Secret Path setting. With a silent footswitch and premium build, it suits ambient, post-rock, worship, and players wanting versatile, high-quality reverb.
