Hello,

Am I the only one that experiences loss of reverb when playing the blues deluxe reissue with a attenuator?

The reverb comes back when the attenuator is on about 75% volume reduction but is still "weak" sounding. If I play softer, there's alot of reverb. It seems like the reverb is being drowned beneath the guitar signal.

Thinking about installing a PPIMV instead of using a attenuator. The attenuator works fine with my Super Reverb, though. Plenty of reverb..

Witch attenuator do you use ?

What is the volume ( on your amp, 1 to 10 ) you play with attenuator in circuit ?

Did you test at same volume with not attenuator ?

Jet City Jettenuator..

5 and a half, most of the time.

ALL the reverb comes back without the attenuator. I'm swimming in it without the attenuator, but as soon as I plug the attenuator, it takes away maybe 80% of the reverb and when I pick soft enough it comes back strong.

If you keep the reverb effect when you are at 5 and half with no attenuator , the attenuator may change amp frequency (?) response or something like that.

I have Weber Mass Attenuator and I never hear that change on many amp I used . I did not try on Blues Deluxe R.
