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.
