...it looks like there's plenty of room for a reverb pedal there. I read great things about the MXR digital reverb. I'm happy with my TC Electronic Arena (similar to Hall of Fame). I bet a mini Hall of Fame would be just the ticket to satisfy your reverb desires.

Hey, YamahaGuy - thanks for the reverb thoughts. I messed with the knobs today and found a setting that wasn’t too bad. Not great, but useable. I have a couple of reverb pedals - a Holy Grail and a new Boss RV-6. I may mess with that one. I’m more concerned with reverb on my vocals though.
What I really learned today was that I absolutely hate the LR Baggs Element in my J-29. I simply can’t stand piezo pickups at all. I hate every one I have ever tried. Even with the Aura pedal helping some, I can’t stand the attack and brittle sounds I always hear coming out of the speaker. Strident and so unlike my guitar. My band mates thought it sounded pretty good, but I can’t live with it. I don’t know if I should try a Lyric, or a K&K Pure Western, or just try to mic it with something like a K&K Meridian. I’ll do some research here on the forum, I guess.
Anyway, I’m gonna mess with the Soundcraft some more and see if I want to keep it or send it back for the Allen and Heath. I really wanted to try the Zed i6fx, but the lack of a mid knob turned me off. The i10fx would be great, but it’s getting bigger than I would like.
