Webb amp reverb problem.

I have an early Webb 6-14-E and the reverb isn't working. I had ordered a replacement pan but that did not work. Would anyone know the correct ohms for the input and output on the original pan?
Any other suggestions for parts of the amp that might be causing this issue ?

Hi Paul, I am experiencing the same issue with my 1982 Webb. Here is a topic that discusses it-

Hey Paul,
I had some extra time this morning, and disassembled the Webb to the point where I removed the main power supply board w/ the power amp transistors. There is a larger white connector that connects this board to the preamp board. I believe the reverb signal runs thru this connector. I cleaned it with Deoxit 5, and it solved the problem, reverb works fine again.
Hope this helps, Mike

Check for broken wires in the tank itself!

Paul mentioned that he already had replaced the reverb tank, so I would imagine that isn't the problem.

Not every reverb tank is will work and he didn't say he ordered an exact replacement! He's also asks about specs on the original which makes me believe he doesn't have the right one! What's the scoop Paul?
