there isn't any reverb.

there are just controls and a tank.

the actual reverb, in the one I have here, is total crap.

 

look at the bugera five watt with reverb. go listen to it.

 

the vjhr has some good points.. but you aren't getting any reverb that you'd actually turn on.

Have you tried the Bugera 5 watt and what did you think?

 

I wish my 16 ohm 1x12 cab was 4 ohm, might make a big difference with that amp.

The vj has tube driven reverb and a short two spring tank.

It does very little except produce this funky sounding after effect.

 

If you turn it down.. there's just a very little lower mid boost to the notes you play.

*not off, but down*

when you turn it up.. it just makes more after note noise.. not much tone..just

noise.

I found it useless.

Hey TWANG.......just out of curiosity's sake, which reverb do you think is worse, the VJHR or the VS ??? (I can't remember if you've tried out the Senior or not) Anyone who's tried 'em both feel free to comment - I haven't heard any good about either reverb...LOL

I've only heard a clip of the VS.. it was a little better than the VJHR .. but he tried to mod his right away, so that tells us something.

And on the clip of it modded.. you couldn't really hear anything but a little rounder note..

 

I've got the VJHR here, but I'm so damn busy I can't get the schemo finished..

 

if all goes well tonight and tomorrow, I'll have two full days to lay into the hot rod..

and I've taken some notes on the reverb from others. so..

 

I may fry it, or it may fry me.
