Reverb, delay, and echo allow you to add ambiance to the mix, thickening your sound up and giving it extra dimensionality.
*Old Man Voice. Back in MY day, an affordable amp sounded terrible! Sterile, lifeless clean tones or ratty, over distorted, Uber-compressed garbage! Now you get Multiple Voices. Now you get multiple effects. Now you can plug in your phone or headphones... Sheesh, kids these days have no clue how good they got it!
