I just discovered this forum. I have a Kustom 150 PA sitting out in my garage, I have not used it for several years. I always enjoyed it, but though it was of no real interest to anyone but me. This forum tells me otherwise, is it a desirable piece of equipment? Is there interest in this model? It works well, everything but the reverb, last I used it to announce a small parade in my home town. Talk to me about this PA.

Welcome to the place!
If you go to this site's Literature section, and then the PA section you will find the original advertisement and info for the 150 PA system.
Your non working Reverb may be due to a few things ,the most common the Reverb lock set that these metal face amps had.
The foam pad that goes up against the pans Reverb springs rots with age , falls off and keeps the two springs from vibrating.
The next most common failure is 1 of the 4 very small wires brakes off from the pans RCA connectors and needs to be soldered back on.
