What is an Reverb tank? Where can I find a schema of it, or where can I buy one? Building an Reverb effect I sow two RCA plugs which are connected to a Reverb Tank unit... wht is it? Sorr for my lame question. Thanks.

a reverb tank is a metal enclosure with 2 or 3 long springs in it. the signal is fed into the springs on one end and the springs start humming, they take a while to be still again and there is the reverb.

i'm sure this is not the right right description, but it helps me understand what happens.

a very popular reverb tank is made by accutronics, http://www.accutronicsreverb.com/.

i wouldn't advise building your own reverb tank, they come in amps. there are also stand alone reverb units, which CONTAIN a reverb tank.
