Pedal Line Friday :: Reva K

Hey, I'm Reva K. I'm a Fender-featured pop/rock artist and a proud Rattlesnake user. My sound has been described as "Summer 1995 updated for 2025" (SPIN), with "influences from Stevie Nicks" (Billboard Brazil).

All the pedals on this board—minus the PG-14 and the Carbon V2—were used to craft the guitar tones for my latest releases, "Drive" and "Can't Stop." I use a Rattlesnake Coily Cable or a Standard Rattlesnake Cable to plug into my board. The pedals are connected with Rattlesnake Patch Cables and hooked up to my Orange Rocker 15 tube amp.

Here's a tour of my pedalboard:

Sonic Research Turbo Tuner ST-300
This strobe tuner's accuracy gives me peace of mind, and the bright red LED screen is easy to read in any lighting environment.

JHS Pedals Whitey Tighty Compressor
The basic compression, blend, and volume knobs bring my guitar forward without having to overthink the settings. If I had a dollar for every time someone asked me why there's underwear on this pedal!

Browne Amplification Carbon V2 Overdrive
This pedal brings subtle magic to my sound. It's smooth, opens up my guitar tone, and adds life.

JHS Pedals PG-14 Distortion
When I need really nasty sounds, I reach for the PG-14. Most of the time, I have it on a lighter setting to add a slight edge and grit to my playing.

JHS Pedals 3 Series Phaser
The phaser was my very first pedal. When I need some retro vibes, it's there for me.

Native Audio Pretty Bird Woman Chorus/Vibrato
This is a lush and chimey chorus/vibrato. The two-knob design makes it easy and quick to dial in the effect I'm looking for.

Crazy Tube Circuits TI:ME Delay
Aside from using this pedal for delay, sometimes I'll turn down the delay settings and use it for its vintage, warm character.

Crazy Tube Circuits Splash Reverb
This is a cool reverb with eight algorithms. It can create some gorgeous, spacey soundscapes; however, when recording my music, I tend to use more modest settings.

Submit Your Pedal Line!

About a million years ago, I used to run a blog called EffectsBay. On that blog, the most popular feature I would run was Pedal Line Friday. This is where readers of the site would send pics of their pedalboard and a short (sometimes long) write-up of routing and thoughts about specific pedals and the reasoning why they liked it, etc. Readers. loved this. It was a great way to learn about new applications or techniques regarding pedals. It also brought a little inspiration and knowledge about pedals you were not familiar with. It also brought a great sense of community - people like sharing and absorbing cool things, right? It was a super popular feature, and I loved putting them together.

All you have to do is send a pic of your pedalboard (or pedal line - it doesn't have to be on a board) along with a short (or long) write-up of the board. We want a list of pedals (manufacturer/model), routing would be great, and, most importantly, why you use those particular pedals. Also, this is a great way to promote your band or musical project - include that information as well!

You can send the pic and the write-up to pedalline@rattlesnakecables.com.
