How much reverb are you using?
Is it a older LTD or a LTD 400,?
I dont use more than 3 or 4 on my amps.

The LTD400 is the older model (than the Session 400 LTD)
Check those molex connectors at the tank and amp chassis one more time. Spray a bit of contact cleaner on the connectors and wiggle them a little. They can oxidize and not make good contact. See if that helps. If not you may need a new reverb tank.

| Dan:The amount of reverb that I use varies..If it's a slow ballad I use much more than if it's a fast song,I use less to prevent my 16th notes from getting soupy.It's an older one and has been fixed about three thousand times..but it sounds great.Larry,I will try some contact cleanr.thanks guys for the help,Stu |

It could possibly be a problem with the reverb pan itself. If you determine that it is, the part number for a new pan is 71011114. This part can be purchased through your local authorized Peavey dealer or direct from the factory by calling 1-877-732-8391 and selecting the "parts" option.
