Just a little story about my experience with the guys over at Morley...
I recently needed a new reverb tank for my early '80s Super Champ. The original tank was a short 3-spring Accutronics model (8AB3C1B). It's the same specs as the long 2-spring tanks installed in all of the vintage reverb-equipped Fender amps (4AB3C1B). Unfortunately, the 8AB3C1B tanks are difficult to find. Short tanks for recent Fenders have a 600 ohm input instead of 8 ohm, and they have a shorter decay time. Also, short tanks for Boogie are 8 ohm, but the input connection is grounded, not isolated. I spent countless hours searching. I was just about to give up when I discovered an interesting link on eBay while searching for tanks (http://www.sepigroup.com/). I sent an email to scott@sepigroup.com inquiring about a 8AB3C1B for a Super Champ, and I immediately got an e-mail back from scott@morleypedals.com saying that he could build me one. To make a long story short, seven days later the tank is sitting on my door step. All for a very respectable grand total of $52.45.
