DIY Spring Reverb w/pcb?

[the_carl]

Are there any DIY spring reverbs out there that use an actual spring but have a PCB for the driver and such? Like the GGG Stage Center Reverb, but with a PCB that I can order that isn't discontinued, or with a verified perfboard layout? I want a simple trashy spring reverb kind of deal, like Dano Spring King-ish but not made by Danelectro.

I'll take it the answer is no. GOD DAMMIT I WANTED TO BE LAZY AND CHEAP

Spring reverb is a little harder to emulate than regular room reverb. If you wanted to be cheap you could do the 1776 Rub A Dub, but that's more of an ambient hall

This is why I wanted to make an actual spring reverb, a la Dano Spring King but not a Dano or Vam Amps Solemate but not a bajillion dollars. The GGG build looked super simple, but is discontinued, so I was wondering if anything else like that was out there.

There is a schematic for a vero layout on tagboardeffects.blogspot.com for a spring reverb driver, all you'd need is a tank

I know where you can get a PCB for a reverb driver and recovery pre but it is big, dual supply and designed for modular synth levels +/-5v signals.

Have you thought about learning how to make your own PCBs? The transfer, BOM, schematic, etc is all available via the GGG website. You just have to source the parts yourself, which shouldn't be too difficult.

PAIA has a spring reverb http://www.paia.com/proddetail.asp?prod=6740K&cat=27

Good call.. I always forget about them. They are actually a pretty solid company with great parts. I have had a few of there kits in the past.

Doesn't MSLP do this?

[the_carl]

Woops, completely didn't sub to my own thread... Thanks for the suggestions guys, gonna check some of this stuff out now.

What's "MSLP"? I tried the googles and found a "Spring'd Steen" driver video but no info- am I being stupid?

BTW- The Dano Spring King is weird- it doesn't use the spring for reverb, it's a digital reverb with the spring solely for the "boing" sound when you kick the pad :s

[Bellyheart]

Yeah make sounds loudly pedals. Has a fb. I think the spring steed does what you were looking for but could be wrong no remember seeing something with a reverb tank

[the_carl]

MSLP does make one, looks like it's $150/$200 with tank according to his FB page, at which point I'd rather get a Ghost Echo or Spring Theory or Shimverb or something.

That's really dumb about the Spring King, too.
