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.

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.

I have one that supposedly works but has a scratch plate so the sound supposedly isn't the best but i don't know... never used it and keep meaning to put it on Ebay cause i don't have time to mess with it.

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