Hey all,
Looking forward a reverb tank for the 150. I also need two mounting bars so I can install it properly. Hoping everything works when plugged back in but have a feeling it's been removed for a reason and might need further work. S anyone know where to find an original tank or what a suitable replacement would be?

Hi!
It's very rare that the reverb circuits themselves in the plexiglass face amps have problems, so a new tank should get you back in action.
That tank you need can be had from tubes & more, and is part number P-RMOD-4FB3A1A.

The mounting tubes that where used can be made from 3/8" aluminum or brass tuning, that you flatten the ends out on, but flat Aluminum stock will be easier.

The screws that hold the mounting system to the amp chassis where 6/32.

Note that it's very important to mount the pan in the amp so that the output side of the pan is opposite the amps power transformer.

The quality of the shielding of the cables used makes a difference in the noise level also!
