Title: Fender HR Deville 410 Reverb Issues
Post by: webephishin on January 22, 2013, 02:41:19 PM
Well, I turned on my amp today and have absolutely no response from my reverb....searched around the internet to possibly find a way to fix it or troubleshoot it but everyone's responses seem sketchy so I want your guys' opinions first.  This really sucks and i'm very bummed out about it, i hope it's an easy or cheap fix.  Any help/input would be greatly appreciated!!!

check the 2 wires that go into the reverb tank.  Did they get loose?

I called the music store i bought it from (it was a used amp) and he recommended the same thing.  Just got done checking them and they were both in there nice n snug.  I unplugged them and replugged them back in a couple times just to get a solid connection/rid any possible tarnishing and VOILA!!!! It's good to go!! Now time to go rock!  I wonder if it had anything to do with the amp being stored outside in my very cold car for a couple hours?  Interesting....

You gotta hand it to the HR, they are tanks.

Indeed they are....I had my reverb cut out again on me so I took it in, luckily it was still under warranty...there was a broken wire or something in the tank...they said it was a quick n easy fix.  So that's cool.

This is a common reverb killer on old fenders....  its happened to my twin a few times.
