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.

These are replacement reverb tanks for guitar amplifiers. The amplifier will power the reverb tank via a transformer. You will need to duplicate that to make these work.

You gave 2 of the same reverb tank numbers. If you are referring to 8EB2C1B and 8EB3C1B, the only difference is the 4th character. This tells you that 8EB2C1B, is a medium decay, and 8EB3C1B is a long decay. The number 8 refers to the tank type length 9.25" with three transmitiosn springs.

The Blues Jr uses an 8EB2C1B. The only difference is the 4th character. This tells you that 8EB2C1B, is a medium decay, and 8EB3C1B is a long decay. As long as the second and third character are the same, you can swap tanks out to get different results. These characters represent your input and output impedance and you want them to match. Both of these tanks have the same second and third character (EB).

The Blues Deluxe Reissue should have come with a 4EB3C1B. This is a long tank at 16.75". The 8EB3C1B is the same tank but with a short tank at 9.25". If you want a shorter tank this will work. If you want a longer tank you need the 4EB3C1B.

An 8EB2C1B will have a medium decay and a 8EB3C1B will have a long decay. For more information on reverb tanks and what the characters mean; check out our article on reverb tanks in the tech corner above.

This tank is 9.25" in length. You will want to measure your existing tank or head to make sure it will fit.

Yes, the 2 (or 3 in the case of the replacement) signifies the decay time of the reverb. The 8EB2C1B has a medium decay while the 8EB3C1B has a long decay. Other than that, they are identical in spec.

Great replacement reverb tank for the Vox AC15C1. It dropped right in (perfect fit) and sounds fantastic. It arrived promptly and was well-packed. Go for it!

A drop in replacement for the shorty tank on the red knob Super 60. Plug and play!
