Casey,
I've used a '65 Super Reverb for my main amp for years, until I got
more into surd and needed something that wouldn't break up ala '65
Bandmaster which now doesn't work so I'm back to the Super Reverb.
My Super Reverb is like Stephen Kings Christine. When I bought a
stand alone reverb tank unit the reverb stopped working on my Super.
When I bought the Bandmaster the Super starting making strange
noises. The only replacement tank I would offer you is to go out and
by a seperate unit which would be costly. I tried one of those 3
spring tanks and it still wasn't enough.
If you want to try and fix that tank you have, I'd recommend taking
the tank out of the bag in the bottom and checking the rca
connections. Wouldn't hurt trying new rca cords as well. When mine
wasn't working I had a similar problem to you. I'd have to hit
really loud fast chords to kick the reverb on. After I replaced the
rca cords it worked.
