Re: spring reverb

Well I never made it beyond the idea stage on the spring tank reverb. But I did complete the steel guitar. It came out pretty well and sounds nicely retro tuned to both C6th and G through my reverb, wah, and volume pedals and my Fender Ultimate Chorus 2 x 12 130-watt Amp https://i.postimg.cc/DZ5nrf4...

Re: spring reverb

But to be honest, this is a first for me and at best.... Just a guess. I have never heard of it being done...... And that might speak volumes about the outcome. I may mount an output jack to both ends of the reverb tank just behind a 500 k or 1 meg volume pot and a 3 way toggle switch then plug this...

Re: spring reverb

I am sure there will be a little noise but if it could sit inside a 100 watt amp and not cause problems, I'm pretty sure any vibes from playing this heavy steel guitar, with the tub mounted with 6 rubber grommets, has 4 solid wood legs and the player will be sitting on a drummers throne would be neg...

Re: spring reverb

That or use 2 push pull volume pots with position 1 no reverb and position 2 for reverb. Sort of a one push pull for one neck and a second for the other. It seems to me that may be the easier way to go. Either way I have all of the parts.... I just need a diagram as to how to wire it up. Thanks agai...

spring reverb

Hey ya'll, I'm considering mounting a spring reverb box (removed from a Fender front man 2 x 12 amp) underneath my double neck console steel project. The positive aspect is I could control the passive reverb without adjusting the amp or fiddling around with a chain of pedals. Actually the only pedal...
