Small (9.5 inch) reverb tank, includes bag and RCA cable. Free to a good home, you just cover the shipping.

What's the impedance of this? Can you grab the input and the output impedance?

Sadly, I don't know. :idk:

I have a multi meter, how would I check that?

The model number specs should yield the impedance info.

The only markings on the top side of the tank are the following:

O.C. Electronics
Milton, WI

Pat. 3.363.202
Pat. 3.938.063

The side that has the input and output jacks is stamped:

757


Hope this helps. :idk:

Put your multimeter to measure impedance (Ω). Connect red probe to the tip of the RCA connected to the input jack on the pan. Connect the common (black) lead to the sleeve of the RCA jack. Whatever that number is, that's the input impedance.

Do the same with the output. That'll be your output impedance.

OC Electronics had a funny label on their old reverb tanks

I remember seeing that in old amps and wondering if they were actually made by beautiful girls. :lol: :lol:

I live about forty minutes from Milton, and I can tell you that Milton, largely a farm town, doesn’t have that controlled of atmospheric conditions. And the beautiful girls live in Janesville, or move to Madison or Milwaukee. Or go to Whitewater for college.
