There's always a chance that there's something else wrong with the pedal, as well. But fix that first and see where you're at.

Tried to change the resistors today...
got the 10K changed...but,
when trying to straighten the
leads of the 100K, I broke one
off even with the body..

so, I've got to order one on line some
place I guess...

Can I buy from byoc...or should I
just find one elsewhere on line?

Thanks, Terry

Just contact sales@buildyourownclone.com and tell 'em you're working with us here in the forum to get your Spring reverb running and you need one 1/4W 100K metal film resistor. I'm sure they'll send it to you at no cost.

e-mail from sales today said they'd send me a resistor
free of charge.

I received the new 100K resistor the other day and just had a chance to solder it
in the board and put the pedal mostly back together.
I swear that this pedal worked well before the water incident...
My wife even remembers me showing her how it worked..

But, anyway
The pedal works again...
I know you said you didn't know how
it could work with the resistors reversed...
but...somehow it did..
Maybe a coincidence that at the same time the
water spilled...the 100k resistor gave up?

I don't know..
but, I do appreciate all the help
and it seems to be working well...
I put it up against the reverb in a Frenzel
Amp Head I have and they sound very similar.

Thanks again!
Terry Harper
