  It is a monstrousity, but the Reverb Tone is worth the ugliness, I intend to cabinet-ize the amp frame and longer frame on the 2spring Accutronics tank, right now two 1/2''x1'' beams mount the tank above/behind the amp frame I used for the PS and reverb circuits.
  Not sure what the impedance of the driver condenser is, I decided to put a Mosfet source follower w/28VDC supply between the SCR driver output and the driver, this has done the trick for me, I used an 8k2 resistor.
  Tank has more than enough drive. The Tank sounds awesome now, it had been shelved for 15 years !
  It came from an old Legend amp I was trying to get service on for 1.5 years, finally I just got it back and gutted it! Probably the transformer I'm using is the same one too.
  Nice to be able to get 'just a few more items' and get a reverb up !!
