Re: Reverb Tanks

supertwangreverb - 19 Feb 2005 02:40:33

I had my '64 serviced, when I bought it, it was dead. Now, I coulda
sworn it wasn't THAT drippy, certainly isn't as wet sounding as some
of the reissues prior to the cap job(but those sound like shit
anyway). But it's wetter than it was before, and I think I went a
little over board with the reverb on our album. What was wrong with
mine was in the input jack. Seriously, after bending the little
switch which touches the jack away from the actual input it's
increased in DRIP. Sometimes it's something as minimal as
that...boy I'm drunk and need sleep.....................
