Reverb noise

Post by Rick Barber »

My Nashville 400 reverb seems to be getting hum and noise now. Turning Reverb down to 0 its quiet. I remember some of you having similar experience. What was the fix, cleaning connectors that go to the reverb??

Thanks for any comments.

Hay Rick , i was getting a squeal, almost feedback from mine. I cleaned the plug contacts and tightened them up. It stopped!!

You can try the molex connector that connects the cables from the reverb tank to the chassis. But there is inherent hum that you can't get out. There was another thread that got deep into reverbs and hum not too long ago. Do a search and you should be able to find it.
