■Tube Spring Reverb

The ReTubeVerb Mk2 features the same Accutronics reverb tank found in classic Hammond organs and Fender guitar amplifiers.

This custom model of Accutronics' top-of-the-line Type 9 reverb tank boasts a luxurious design with six 30cm springs, each with different characteristics. This produces a rich, full reverb sound characteristic of long springs.

All audio signal circuits?input, drive amp, recovery amp, and output?are constructed with high-voltage driven vacuum tubes (two ECC83s and one ECC81) and high-quality components. By eliminating all transistors and ICs, you can enjoy a warm, slightly compressed, pure tube sound for your spring reverb effect. The reverb sound can also be adjusted using a 3-band equalizer.

A true bypass circuit is employed, completely bypassing the audio signal from the internal electronic circuitry when the effect is off. The input and output terminals include both unbalanced (phone) and balanced (XLR) connectors, reflecting a design focused on studio use.

Furthermore, the level indicator utilizes a vacuum tube known as the ""Magic Eye"" (EM84). It features a beautiful bar graph-type indicator where green lights on both sides contract in accordance with the signal level and volume. This not only simplifies level adjustment but also enhances the atmosphere with a subtle illumination. A 19-inch rackmount kit is included.
