Caroline Guitar Company: MÉTÉORE LO-FI REVERB

If a pedal goes out of its way to impress and inspire me like the CGC Météore has today, I make no apologies for pushing everything else aside for a few hours so I can share the love. This is one cool pedal, folks. I won't harp on about it here because you can read about all of the details on the Caroline Guitar Company's website (link above). Just have a listen to the first few minutes of this video and hopefully you'll get what this pedal is all about. Philippe Herndon, once again you have done it again.

[SingleCoilVoodoo]

Great sounding pedal!!! The song at the beginning was fantastic!!!

[BrandonNevermind]

This is literally everything I ever wanted in a reverb!

[mattgilbert]

There's an album's worth of ideas in this demo.
Inspiration machine.

Awesome pedal, killer looks, super sound, amazing company. Caroline FTW!

[dubmoth]

Apart from all the fabulous reviews in and of themselves, a real treat for me is watching your face run the gamut of feeling when it appears, as it does here, that you're really digging the sound! Thanks for all your work! Much respect!

[CarolineGuitarCo]

Brett, what is that amazing riff you played at 4:51? Because if that isn't a song already, you definitely need to write it, along with the intro part!

[NoyzyBoyZ]

G-day neighbor! Very nice sounding pedal! I hope you have a pleasant week. Don.

[alphakittyofficial]

Beautiful playing and excellent amp/guitar choices. You made me buy another pedal, damn you! As always, excellent demo. Thanks.

[Praetor-vndi]

Wow, I never stopped to consider that! I do respect your opinion and appreciate reaching back to answer.

[caplippi]

What were you playing in the beginning? It was beautiful!

[hihopeseveryday]

Interesting must say though I've just taken possession of my very own liquid ambience from flux, what a load of fun I'm having with this one. So it seems that the concept of exploration of oscillation has become very appealing in a variety of effects now. Nice demo Brett yet I'd been convinced on an earlier offering which is grand. Not to lessen this pedals qualities however as it has a niche set out already on many boards. Top of the day to you my friend! cheers

[maggieo]

Marr!!! Brett, you are a brother from another mother.

[Sagerydian]

Everytime you say "spaaakle" I drink a shot Jägermeister. 3rd Video, I'm already halfdead drunk!!! Greetz from Austria! (No Kangoroos)

[elijahyoung]

when it goes into "light mode" is combing in extra harmonics to achieve a brighter tone? that's what it sounds like to me.

[MEKnd]

For a while, it sounded like there was a slapback delay. Then it went back. Did that come from the Meteore?

[Praetor-vndi]

HI Brett, always a pleasure catching up with your superior videos, helped me and undoubtedly 100s figure things out before wasting hard earned money. question is, would you prefer thus Meteore over a context, in a one pedal must do all context? forgive the unintentional pun.

[mtn]

Which one did you prefer more? This or the Flux Liquid Ambience?

[too]

Great playing! Great pedal!
But man they've gotta lower the price somehow I dunno.

[christopherforrest]

this or the solidgoldfx counter current? i need a really versatile reverb that can do anything from lo fi to pop rock so if any one has any recommendations please tell me
