Nucleo Reverb Nuclear Power Plant Guitar Pedal
Paul Davids, a Dutch guitarist, walked into the vast halls of Austria’s Zwentendorf Nuclear Power Plant three years ago. The plant was built in the 70s, but never operational. However, it had an acoustic wonder: a reverb so big it felt like the notes went on forever. Davids captured this with guitar in hand, and the result was a sound akin to playing in a concrete and steel cathedral. Fast forward to 2025 and that experience has been transformed into the Nucleo Reverb, a pedal made by Italian boutique maker Cornerstone Music Gear.
