The Mod Electronics 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.

Hi, by doing a quick internet search it seems that the 4EB2C1B was used in the Peavey Bandit 65. This is a long tank 2 spring reverb. Since they both have the same input and output impedance (EB) this should work.

the input and output impedance are slightly different. Will this still be safe and sound ok? thx!

According to our resources you need a 8DB2C1B. You may want to confirm this with your original tank.

It would most likely be the 1EB2C1B as the 2 most likely indicates the number of springs. If you would like to incorporate a third spring, the 8EB2C1B would be the tank to select.

Oddly enough, the part number is listed as 2EB2C1B on the later Monoprice - Stage Right 15W combos. The 8EB2C1B is a direct swap and works well even though the specs on output? impedance isn't the same as the stock tank. I've had one in my 15w for 7 months at this point without a single problem. My MOD tank sounds great!

This can vary, so there is not a definitive color coding for the wires, but there is no risk of damage to the amp if the wires are hooked up incorrectly. The reverb simply won't sound right. If that is the case, simply reverse them and it should work.

I would check your reverb tank and confirm the eight character number on it. As long as the second and third character are the same, you can play around with the other characters. For more information please see our article on reverb tanks. https://www.amplifiedparts.com/tech_corner/spring_reverb_tanks_explained_and_compared

A 4EB3C1B is what the Hot Rod Deville ships with stock. This is a two spring reverb tank with a long decay. For a medium decay look for a 4EB2C1B.

Always pay close attention to the series of letters and numbers associated with each reverb tank. In this case 8EB2C1B. If these numbers match your existing tank then this replacement will be compatible.

Yes, this tank can be used as the most important specs match(input/output impedance,grounding, etc.). The main difference would be that the 8EB2C1B is a shorter tank.

You always want to pay close attention to the Accutronics numbers. For example in the two tanks you are inquiring about the varied numbers may affect performance and compatibility. I would suggest checking out our tech corner article explaining reverb tanks to determine the tank that will best replace the existing unit.

I believe the proper tank for the RP series is a 4FB3A1B. You can find this tank by searching the designation number in the search box. I would still suggest further research to back up my findings as we aren't techs.

As far as a straight swap this tank is not compatible with your amp. Some people have modded their amps to allow this tank to work in the Monoprice 15. We are not amp techs and can not advise you on these mods.

We simply do not have the resources or reference materials to determine what type of reverb tank will work in your amp. We suggest doing a physical inspection of the tank currently in the amp for any distinguishable markings. If you are able to find anything, we may be able to help you find the right tank.

This is able to be driven by a reverb transformer and can also be used in solid state circuits, however, the circuit of the amplifier is what dictates what reverb tank is suitable for each application.

The Monoprice/Stage Right 15W amp has had two versions so far: one that used a miniature plastic reverb unit and one with a full size tank. This tank should work with the version with a full size tank, but this can not be installed in the version with the mini tank without modification to the amp.

We do not have cross reference materials available to verify what tank is used in that amplifier. We suggest removing the original tank and visually inspecting it to determine if there is any information on the tank itself to help you determine which tank will be an acceptable replacement.

This is the correct tank for the Fender Frontman 65R, so this is likely the right tank for the 15R as well, but we do not have cross reference materials to verify this. It is likely that the original tank in your amp will provide some clues as to what replacement you need, my suggestion would be to remove the original tank and inspecting it for information.

I bought this to replace the failed USA-made Accutronics tank in my 2007 Blues Junior. Works great. My only complaint is that the hole pattern was just enough off that it took awhile to get all 4 fasteners started.

I was getting static from my Blues Junior III whenever I turned the reverb up above 1 or 2, especially if I was over-driving the tubes. I found a forum where someone said it was likely the tank. I replaced the stock Ruby tank with the MOD and I've had no trouble since.

I replaced the reverb tank in my Fender Blues Jr. III NOS Tweed, a Ruby reverb tank...was never crazy about it. The MOD tank is a big improvement over the Ruby tank.

Works great. Slightly richer sound than the dual spring Accutronics unit that came in my amp. Screw holes even lined up for a clean swap. Still breaking it in, but very pleased with initial impressions!

The reverb tank arrived surprisingly fast to Canada (one week only), since it was shipped from California. The unit itself corresponds to description and works perfectly, providing an improvement compared the original noisy tank in my Fender Princeton 112 Plus guitar amp. Thanks to AmplifiedParts

OMG - bought this to replace a stock Spring Reverb in my Fender Blues Jr and what a HUGE difference. The stock one "maybe" sounded ok up until 3 on the dial, after that it was just rubbish. This one you can crank, sounds wonderful and is at an incredible price ! Thank you Amplified Parts ! ! !
