reverb or loop

Post by dcribbs1412 »

I have a 4(pre) hole chassis
going to try a 2/3rd gen build wondering if I should do the 1 tube reverb or internal loop with extra tube? Wondering if the fx loop still works the same with on board reverb? As in can I still run an external loop(dlator) with delay and run on board reverb at once? Any comments are greatly appreciated

I'd go loop. Then you can add reverb in the loop or in front. sh

Regardless, yes most guys add the D-lator to just put reverb/delay (or other time based effects) in the loop. If you're not really someone that uses anything other than Reverb, then just add the Verb and do a passive loop before the Verb for use with an external Dumbleator if you ever want to use anything else.

Thanks guys
I have not had good luck with the built in loop
I might just give it another go....
Luthierwnc I need to look closer at the way you implemented the loop
with 1 cap...
Thanks boldaslove6789
that is a very nice amp, wish I had a 5 hole chassis

My Quinn actually has 6 preamp tubes, (one is between the Pwr tubes).

Has a Mercury Mag Fender Twin Reverb Pwr Trafo with extra Relay tap, and AFAIK a Heyboer Plexi style OT (4/8/16 ohms).

V1 Clean
V2 OD
V3 D-lator
V4 Verb Driver (12at7)
V5 Verb recover (12ax7)
V6 Phase Inverter

You can kind of see where the tube is below:
