After installing a new Tubes And More Mod brand reverb tank 4FB3A1B the amp's tone now has 30% more bass and I lose that transister footprint it seems. It sounds more like a Fender now than a Kustom.
My amp is a K100C-8 4x10. Is there another tank that would bring back the higher eq? Per instructions in another part of this forum, I installed the tank with it's input side located on the end of the amp as where it came out so not to get massive 60 hz hum.. I get zero hum and the reverb is nice and rich, just a little too bassier than the old one.......
In my original reverb tank, one spring had an end clip broken giving me a short reverb decay just using one spring. This amp has 10% more hi eq than my other 2 amps just like this one. Could one reverb spring not hooked up be what gives this amp more hi eq?
I reinstalled the old reverb tank and the amp has it 's higher eq back. Then I installed the new tank again, and it still has probably 30% more bass than the old reverb tank.
Is there another reverb tank to get more hi eq? Or a mod for this new reverb tank to get more hi eq?
Thanks.
