I own one that worked at one point, but there's some issue with the electronics right now. Pretty sure the oil can still works..

It's pretty cool, but really a one trick pony - mind you, the Gibson GA-4RE does not have a variable delay time like some.

I find even when it works I get more mileage out of a spring reverb.

I have a Morley EDL that I like a lot. Its belt is broken right now and I haven't been bothered to replace it, but I'm gonna have to do that soon.

I could buy a reverb and pour oil on it. Does that work? :)

They sound so good. Super moody.
I've been trying to find one of these for sale for a long time but have never seen this model come up for sale ever.

This model sounds nice, but it can't work as a standalone device.

Have to have an amp with a standard pan spring reverb - will need a pair of RCA cables as well.

You chain it in along with the spring tank in an amp.

What model is it? I've been into this sort of thing lately. Is it cumbersome (size)?
