Reverb tank issues

Post by Zippy »

Hey guys/girls,

I've got a non-working reverb tank on a '67 Vox Berkeley ll. I installed a tank from another amp and it worked. I checked continuity on both the input and output side and it was good. I checked the resistance at the input and got 185 ohms. I get zero output resistance, yet it has continuity. How can this be? A broken wire inside the little winding that is touching the other wires?

Thanks for any input/help/silliness,

Zippy
