The third tube should be a 12AT7. Replace it with a 12AU7. This will make the reverb easier to fine tune.

Reverb tanks have dampers that wear out... tiny rubber pads inside the transducers. You can also get medium and short delay tanks instead of your stock long delay tank. The Jensen MOD tanks are the best made right now... tubesandmore.com has them for a great price.

I have the MOD tank and the tube sub. in my Vibroclone. Makes the reverb very nice.
