About 6 months ago, I purchased a new 65 Super Reverb Reissue an love the amp! About three weeks ago, I started getting a static type buzz when using the reverb on the amp. As you turn up the reverb level on the amp, the noise gets louder, if you turn the dial to 1, the noise disappears. I have cleaned the rca contacts, replaced the 12ax7 tubes, moved the amp location in my house, and haven't found the fix yet. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks !

Did you try cleaning the REVERB potentiometer?

You need to try a new 12AT7 too , it is the Reverb Send tube.
You replace only the Reverb Recovery tube ; 12AX7

Both may make the noise.

Try new 12AX7 preamp tubes too they could be the issue too

I have the 65 Super Reverb Reissue Service manual , PDF
I can send you with your e-mail adress :)

Does the noise persist when the footswitch is disconnected?
