Just picked up an old 1966 Fender Reverb unit. Now I know why people give so much praise to these things. It has the lushest most controllable reverb I have ever heard. Too bad I cannot run this...

Chub,These are available in So Cal. ALL are in working order. A near mint Fender Echo Reverb II for 295. And I can usually find a Morley EVO-1 for about 250. Tel-Rays I see for anywhere from 275 on...
