Find a NOS RCA 6L6 Blackplate; that will help the little sucker overdrive a bit more, especially if it has a crummy OEM Chinese 6L6. Just as an aside, if you want to make it louder for those small club/pub gigs put a JAN Philips 7581A in instead of the crappy OEM chinese 6L6 that most left the factory with. MUCH better tone and lots more headroom. What I did was add RCA jacks for the reverb send and return. I tried a few full size tanks I had around. The best sounding was a 17" 3 spring. I cut the tank down to 15" as well as the spring assembly and shortened the 2 loosest springs slightly. I put this in a bag and recalibrated the reverb. The calibration instructions are on the schematic. The original reverb is in a small cardboard enclosure. When I opened it up I found one of the springs disconnected. Hooking it back up the original sounded much better. The problem with this design is it is speaker driven. With this scheme the reverb drive is taken off the speaker, the return is pumped back into the amp. The reverb is "recirculated" with this design. There is a calibration pot that will increase the intensity of the drive, but set it too high and the reverb will feedback, and it has an unpleasant, metallic sound. This is a weakness of this design. It just won't sound like most Fender reverbs.
