I use it at the end of my chain into clean amp and it works beautifully. However, not that i have the JCM900 head, and i use i the pre-amp gain on about 5, to give me a slightly dirty clean, the reverb now sounds too much, almost like a delay pedal...so i'm thinking that for my Marshall set up i need a more subtle reverb effect. How is that Biyang for subtlety?
Yeah, the input of the Ghost changes the time of the reverb. With a heavy signal punching the input, you can emulate slapback. I love that quirk, but it can be annoying at times. Even in the loop of my amp, if I cook the amp too much, it'll change the dynamics of the reverb dramatically. Make sure your signal is not too hot and the Attack knob is turned all the way down.

Not necessarily. If you want a drippy, distorted wash of noise, no, it's the best place for a reverb to be. Reverb before dirt can be awesome, but if you are aiming for subtlety, put it after dirt, after your preamp.
