I build plate reverbs for studios. Wood is not dense enough. I use stainless 
steel under high tension which gets a long decay time and a bright sound without 
huge resonant peaks.Bill

The strangest thoughts come on the shitter....

We all love the plate reverb right?

What if one was made with a gigantic sheet of wooden ply instead? Like the top 
of a violin? What on earth would that sound like as a reverb?

Thought I'd share.
