After much research and consideration, and after having to drop mucho money on a complete new brake job on my car just 2 days ago (talk abt unexpected expenses!), I decided on:

The Digitech Hardwire RV-7 Reverb (w licensed Lexicon onboard!). At $150, it was hard to do after paying for that brake job, but I just couldn't put anything less in front of my Swart. So, I bit the bullet and did the deed! Should make for a VERY nice musical weekend

Thanks again for all of your input and suggestions, my friends. Each was considered carefully and fully, I assure you. to all who contributed!

Now for a bit of a lie down, as all the over the top expenses of April, and now this great pedal, have warped my fragile little mind...ROCK ON!
