The Lexicon 480 has "Shape" and "Spread" parameters to allow you to dial in exactly this effect.
I think that reverb can be problematic, and can lead to the "When the only tool you have is a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail" syndrome. Most classic records have shockingly little reverb, even on vocals. I recall mixing some 'alt rock' records in Nashville in the 1990s and the president of the label was concerned only that the studio I chose "Had a 480". I never used a drop of reverb on those records.
Having said that I think that the
Sony DRE-2000 was a really incredible and original sounding reverb.
