Keeley

Description

For guitarists who want ambient depth and expressive dimension from a single pedal, the Keeley Caverns Delay/Reverb V2 brings two studio-grade effects together in a compact, pedalboard-friendly design. Built around Keeley’s warm, analog-inspired echo character and paired with a versatile three-mode reverb engine, Caverns V2 delivers everything from subtle space to immersive atmospheric textures. Top-mounted jacks and a streamlined control layout make it easy to integrate into tight board layouts, while the pedal’s musical response and refined voicing reflect Keeley’s focus on practical, real-world guitar tone.

Warm Analog-Style Delay With Musical Modulation

The delay section is based on Keeley’s Magnetic Echo approach, offering up to 650ms of rich, tape-style repeats that sit naturally behind your core signal. Subtle modulation adds movement and character, giving chords and melodic lines a gentle, organic sway that enhances ambience without overpowering your tone. Whether you’re supporting lead phrases or building evolving soundscapes, the repeats remain warm, articulate, and highly playable.

Three Expressive Reverb Modes For Creative Tone Shaping

Caverns V2 provides three distinct reverb voices voiced for different musical contexts. Spring mode evokes classic amp-style ambience with a hint of tremolo-like motion for vintage and surf-inspired tones. Shimmer mode introduces softly voiced upper-octave harmonics for expansive, airy textures, while Modulated mode adds a chorused dimension that turns sustained chords into flowing ambient pads. Each mode responds dynamically to your playing, making it easy to shape space around your performance.

Compact, Stage-Ready Design With Trails Operation

Designed for live performance and studio rigs alike, the Caverns V2 offers switchable true-bypass or Trails operation so reverbs and repeats can decay naturally after the pedal is disengaged. Its compact footprint, intuitive control layout, and top-mounted jacks make it a strong fit for modern pedalboards, while its balanced tonal design appeals to ambient players, worship guitarists, indie and shoegaze musicians, and anyone looking to expand their sound without overcomplicating their setup.

Best Reverb and Delay Pedal Out There

With the amount of Delay/Reverb pedals being released this pedal is breath taking! The 3 reverbs on-board are inspiring to say the least. Most reviews say this isnt a "just for a spring reverb" pedal however the spring setting on it is my favorite. Love the built in trem. The Shimmer is awesome but the shimmer setting has to be pretty high up for them to become noticeable. The Modulation setting is also very nice though I dont go to it frequently. The delay side is amazing as well. The modulation goes from subtle to extreme. This is a steal at 179.99 and its worth every penny!

Delay isn't worth a penny

This pedal is absolutely terrible. I got mine today and within 2 minutes of operation the delay side broke. I kept getting this awful hissing noise. Do yourself a favor and get a bigger pedal board with a separate reverb and delay pedal

    Been shopping reverb pedals for a while. Some are too subtle and you can barely tell they're on. Others make everything you play sound like Enya. This one covers the in betweens well and the chose it over the EH oceans because you can mix reverb and echo/delay instead of choosing between

    I needed something ambient for some cool, very clean things in my church praise band. We are a 3 piece, no Keyboards! (I'm so grateful!) This pedal lets me full out the sound on slower cleans, and the trails work well when I kick my Marshall to the lead channel for high gain work.

    I operate a minimalist pedal board. Delay and reverb effects are good enough to have a space there. This box gets a lot of positive attention from other buyers. Glad I found it on Guitar Centers site. I would recommend it to friends and enemies.

    Can the reverb and delay be used independently? In other words, can I have the reverb on then turn on/off the delay for solos without affecting the reverb?

    Yes you can dial them in independently
