The MOD® Reverb Tanks are high quality upgrade units. Some of the major differences between the MOD®s and other reverb tanks are that the Transducers are wired directly to their respective RCA jacks as opposed to current production tanks where Transducers are connected by a detachable plug to their respective RCA jacks. This makes the tanks less receptive to any outside interference. The original Hammond Accutronics tanks from the 1960s were also wired directly to their respective RCA jacks. In addition, very close attention has been paid to the spacing and size of the lamination of the Transducers resulting in a more vintage like tone.

We are not sure if this will work with your Mesa Boogie. You need to find out what reverb tank you currenty have. The second and third character in a reverb tank number designate the input and output impedance. You need to make sure you pick a tank with the right impedance. For more info please visit our article on reverb tanks here: https://www.amplifiedparts.com/tech_corner/spring_reverb_tanks_explained_and_compared

Our understand is as long as the second and third character are the same, you can swap tanks to get difference specs.

If your amp does not contain a reverb circuit then the tank can not be added without extensive modification. I would suggest contacting the builder to see if this is a viable option.

We are unsure if this will work in your Dr. Z but we have some pointers to help you out. Always pay close attention to the series of letters and numbers associated with each reverb tank. In this case 8AB2A1B. If these numbers match your existing tank then this replacement will be compatible. You may want to contact Dr Z directly for tank options.

I haven't used this tank yet but the last one I bought worked great so I am sure there will be no problems with this one. I will continue to purchase parts from AmplifiedParts.

I placed this order on the 4th of December and it arrived in New Zealand 2 weeks later - I'm very impressed with this delivery time. I'm using this reverb spring to build a stand-alone tube reverb unit inside a Fender 15G combo box - no photo's yet sorry. I recommend the parts and service from Amplified Parts and will be shopping again soon.
