The reverb stopped working in my Nashville 112 
Is there a Peavey service center in Nashville? Any help from anyone would really be appreciated!

Nashville Amp Service. I don't recommend them for line6 work. But I have a leetle Rivera designed Super Champ that they did a great restoration on maybe 5 years ago. A couple of your "pals" had amps in there for service last time I was there, & main reason I'm bringing them up is they're an authorized Peavey service center.
Honestly, I don't think they're as good as they used to be, but if my ol' Nashville 1000 goes down I wouldn't give a 2nd thought to taking it to them for service.
Hope that helps. |

Tommy, my Verb on my NV112 went south right after I bought it new,,,,I un-plugged the Molex plug & plugged it back in & all was well.
Then about a year later,it went out again,,that time, a little wire on one end of the Verb spring, broke off ,in the tank,itself,
I replaced the whole tank with an old tank out of a Baldwin Organ  had the same type of Molex plug.
Then I found out ,one could buy a whole new tank, for about $25 
The end of the Verb springs are held by a wire about the size of a human hair  ,,dosent take much of a bumping or shaking of the Amp, to break them,,,

| The reverb problem seems to be one of the major complaints of the NV112. It doesn't have a "Molex Connector", it uses a different style. Generally, there haven't been many problems with that connector from posts here on the forum. If its a connection problem I would more consider a bad jack connection on one of the RCA plugs on the Reverb pan before the connection to the motherboard. |

I was at the bar yesterday and saw you having problems with your reverb. I had the same thing happen years ago with a Peavey amp. I have carried a reverb pedal since then in my pack seat just in case. It doesn't take much room. The molex connector is usually the culprit on Peavey amps.

Ken, why didn't you say hello?
Jack, you are correct. Turned out to be the reverb pan. I connected a pan from another amp and it worked. So I found another pan at Amazon for $19.00 .
Thanks Jack! |

I couldn't Tommy. I was hoping that the band would have taken a break but it looked like they were going to play right through. I had to leave to go to a gig in Goodlettsville to see a band called Still Country. Mike and Joanie Johnson emailed me to let me know that they were going to be there.
I will see you play again at the Opry this evening. Don't know who is on tonight so it is pot luck. Your Sho~Bud sounded great yesterday, even without reverb. I could tell that the lack of reverb was bothering you - the e-cigarette was taking a battering.

Tommy, looks like the forum solved another one. Saved you the service charge from a repair shop.
The only thing, make sure it is the correct reverb pan. There are many different models (part numbers). Not every reverb pan will work. |

I matched the 9eb2c1b numbers from the old pan. The only difference I can see in the one I ordered from Amazon is it is black instead of plain metal. I switched pans back and forth a few times to confirm it was indeed the pan. Even unpluggged and replugged little connector thingies inside the pan. Funny thing, I can see no visible problems with the old pan.
Thanks again Jack. |

Hi Tommy, I had the same problem with a 112 I had in the past, sometimes if the amp takes a bump in a car or set down too hard the plastic parts in the pan will break as they seem very brittle!
Jack, I am getting a feedback from one of my 112'a when I am running at show volumes with the reverb up to 4. Is that because the pan may be too close to the speaker?? |

Quentin, If it doesn't feedback with the reverb control set to zero, that is a possibility.
Another, at louder volumes, is the mounting. At higher volumes the entire cabinet can vibrate and depending on how the reverb pan is mounted it can pick up more of the cabinet vibrations.
And another, is the possibility the springs in the reverb pan are getting weak and thus picking up more of the vibrations and causing feedback.
Many possibilities. Have to start eliminating one at a time. As you apparently have two NV112's, move the reverb from the other amp into the one with the problem and connect it up and see if it makes a difference. |

Jack, Tommy et al,
Here's a link to the Accutronics website.
http://www.accutronicsreverb.com/
Click on Applications, then scroll down to "Mounting Considerations. . . "
It's very informative and the big surprise is that most manufacturers continue to mount their reverb tank in the worst possible way. Mounting the pan properly will greatly eliminate the "Thunder Crash" we've all heard when someone bumps an amp.
All the best,

Craig
We all use the 'thunder crash' method to test if the reverb is working, or to try to kick start it into working.
