What Does a Guitar Reverb Pedal Do?

The ultimate purpose of a guitar reverb pedal is to process a guitar's signal and replicate it using reflections of sound waves that bounce off surfaces throughout a room or environment. The pedal itself simulates these sound reverberations and decays within different types of spaces. For example, reverb pedals can alter the spatial depth of your guitar sound. This adds more depth because it makes it seem like the guitar sound is coming from specific positions or distances throughout the room.
