Actually I just asked him and he says: "very bella lugosi is dead"
Cool. His is stereo too, with just two spings inside. I guess it was from a home stereo.... who would ever want to add spring revereb to their home stereo (well besides me)?

Still though I'd love a stand alone, noise and all. I know a guy who just got a weird old pioneer... wonder how that sounds..

Yeah I know and I probably will at the rate I'm going. Holy grail coming soon.

In my case I'd like one in my studio for reamping, so the actual spring would be , I hesitate to say but vibey. ick.
Still, it's another project on the backburner for me. I've got spare tanks lying around, one of these days I will build an input to one. It could be passive for what I'm doing ( i think ) cause I could just plug it's output into a mic pre.
