How long's a piece of string? Need the schematic to know what caps you are talking about.

The schematic is visible on thd 3rd photo on page 1 of this thread.

It uses diodes.

Were there any tube rectified reverb tanks?


I dont have schematic per se but her is the layout i drew

A quick search of available schematics for reverb tank clones suggests that the some have exclusively 47 mf caps so im guessing if anything substituting the one of the 22mf out should be more in line with what most have done

It'll be fine assuming voltage rating of caps is suitable.

I think they’re all 450v
Thanks, sorry was probably a silly question

No, it was a perfectly valid question. I just didn't want to provide a diagnosis without knowing all the facts :geek:
