I just plug in and play - but, in all honesty, I do run my guitars through a Bose T1 mixer/tone generator, and I add a bit of reverb and delay to my guitar and voice - but it's quite subdued.
When I first acquired my Bose L1 Classic, I was put off by the fact that it didn't have an internal reverb... however, I found that playing and singing through that rig had me realize that I truly didn't need effects; more importantly, playing and singing, "naked", really "upped my game"... there's nowhere to hide when it's just YOU!
Even with my electric guitar, I'm not fond of pedals - I play my Gibson ES-345 through a Silver Face Deluxe Reverb amp - and the reverb and vibrato in that is very workable. I will use a pedal to get a little "grit" at lower volumes, though...
