JOYO R-31 PARA-VERB Reverb Pedal – Used
Description
Quick Product Summary
The JOYO R-31 PARA-VERB is a versatile stereo reverb pedal offering nine different ambience types, ranging from traditional Room, Hall, Plate and Spring sounds through to Reverse, Shimmer and expansive Dream reverbs.
This used example is in Good condition, showing visible signs of previous ownership and regular pedalboard use. With comprehensive tone shaping, preset storage, stereo connectivity and an Infinite function for sustained atmospheric textures, it offers plenty of flexibility for both conventional and ambient guitar sounds.
What Makes the JOYO PARA-VERB Special?
The PARA-VERB provides nine distinct reverb algorithms: Room, Hall, Church, Cave, Plate, Spring, Reverse, Shimmer and Dream. Dedicated Hi-Cut, Low-Cut, Pre-Delay, Decay and Mix controls provide much more detailed adjustment than a conventional compact reverb pedal.
Holding the Infinite footswitch creates an extended reverb sustain for ambient textures and drones, while the switchable Trail function allows existing reverb tails to decay naturally after bypass. Each reverb type can also store its own customised preset.
Who Is It For?
The PARA-VERB is ideal for guitarists looking for a broad selection of reverb sounds without moving to a complicated multi-effects processor.
It works equally well for rock, blues and traditional guitar tones as it does for ambient, shoegaze, post-rock and experimental styles, while stereo connectivity makes it particularly effective in dual-amp and recording setups.

FAQs
How many reverb types does the PARA-VERB have?
It provides nine reverb algorithms: Room, Hall, Church, Cave, Plate, Spring, Reverse, Shimmer and Dream.
Does it have spring reverb?
Yes. A dedicated Spring mode provides traditional spring-inspired ambience.
Does it have shimmer reverb?
Yes. Shimmer mode creates a more expansive, atmospheric reverb character suited to ambient playing.
What is Dream mode?
Dream is one of the PARA-VERB's more atmospheric algorithms, designed for large, immersive reverb textures.
What does the Infinite footswitch do?
Holding the Infinite footswitch sustains the reverb tail, allowing drones and extended ambient layers to be created.
Can reverb tails continue after bypass?
Yes. The switchable Trail function allows existing reverb decay to continue naturally when the effect is switched off.
Can settings be saved?
Yes. Each of the nine reverb types can store a customised set of parameters for quick recall.
What does the Pre-Delay control do?
Pre-Delay determines how much time passes between the original note and the start of the reverb, helping separate the dry sound from the ambience.
Does it have tone controls?
Yes. Separate Hi-Cut and Low-Cut controls allow the frequency content of the reverb tail to be shaped.
Can it operate in stereo?
Yes. The PARA-VERB provides stereo inputs and outputs for use with stereo pedalboards, amplifiers and recording setups.
Can it run from a battery?
No. The PARA-VERB requires external 9V DC power.
Is a power supply included?
No. No power supply is included with this used pedal.
What condition is this example in?
This example is graded Good, with visible cosmetic signs of previous use consistent with a pre-owned effects pedal.
