The Mr. Black Eterna Custom is a limited "Stained-Glass" edition of the Eterna, a reverb pedal from US maker Mr. Black. The maker describes it as featuring "the classic circuit with a stunning custom graphic," so the electronics are the same Eterna reverberator players already know, wrapped in a special finish1. Mr. Black calls the Eterna "a remarkable, lush and fully capable reverberator"1.
What the maker says
Mr. Black's product page carries the description of the pedal in the maker's own words:
"a remarkable, lush and fully capable reverberator"
The page also states that the pedal is "proudly made in the U.S.A." and features "the classic circuit with a stunning custom graphic"1.
Edition, price and build time
The Eterna Custom is the Stained-Glass graphic edition of the classic Eterna circuit. The figures on the maker's page, as of 26 October 20261:
| Item | Detail |
|---|---|
| Edition | Limited "Stained-Glass" custom graphic1 |
| Circuit | Classic Eterna1 |
| Regular price | $219.95 USD1 |
| Sale price | $199.95 USD1 |
| Build time | Up to two days for the custom finish, when available1 |
| Origin | Made in the U.S.A.1 |
Because the custom finish is built to order, Mr. Black asks buyers to "allow up to a two day build time for this custom finish when it is available"1. The phrase "when it is available" also signals that the finish is not always on offer.
The pedal is assembled after the order is placed, so it may not ship the same day a standard in-stock pedal would. The sale price of $199.95 USD runs only while the maker's sale is active; the regular price is $219.95 USD1.
Manual and documentation
Mr. Black links a manual for the Eterna directly from the product page, as a PDF download at mrblack.jackdeville.com/manuals/eterna-manual.pdf1. Since the Custom uses the classic Eterna circuit, that manual is the reference for its controls and power requirements.
