I have a great little Boss reverb that I picked up a few years back, trouble is there seems to be a dodgy connection somewhere that makes the spring sound intermittent. I have to bang the reverb box a few times to find the right position for the reverb to stay in a 'working' position, otherwise when I run an instrument through it I just get a dry signal. Take a listen to me banging the box, you can hear the intermittent signal:
I have looked inside a few times, but my average knowledge of electronics has not been able to detect obvious culprits like loose wires etc... can anyone suggest a possible cause? THANKS
There's 2 little wires that go to the coils. They are very thin and as the spring/holder swings around inside it pinches the wires against the casing or slices through the wires.
Get inside and have a perv you'll see what I mean.
