Cornerstone NUCLEO First Impression - Most Anticipated Pedal of 2025 Or Just Hype? Today on Tone Chase Basement, we’re checking out one of the most hyped pedals of the year — the Cornerstone NUCLEO, created in collaboration with Paul Davids himself! Inspired by his legendary video where he played guitar inside an abandoned nuclear reactor, this pedal promises to deliver massive cinematic reverb tones right to your pedalboard. But does it live up to the hype? This is my real-time first reaction — no presets, no rehearsals, just straight into the Tone King Imperial MKII amp to hear exactly what this ambient reverb beast can do. In this video I give first impressions, play unscripted into a high‑end tube amp, showcase ambient textures, shimmering mods, decaying tails, and Paul Davids signature sounds. 00:00:00 Intro 00:00:36 Whats it based on? 00:01:50 Todays test 00:02:54 Controls 00:04:02 Room Sounds 00:05:50 Hall Sounds 00:07:01 Reactor Sounds 00:08:37 Decay 00:09:45 Tone 00:11:15 Freeze 00:13:00 Mod 00:14:45 Air 00:17:28 Flux 00:20:31 Flux pitch 00:21:12 Lo-Fi 00:22:30 Vintage 00:23:57 Normal 00:25:11 My Verdict on it 00:26:03 Outro
