I've just bought a Blues Deluxe, the amp sounds great and I love it.
I've just a question about the Reverb: Do you think it's normal the Reverb is really "light" or "weak" ? I mean that the Reverb starts to give a nice, deep sound only if I turn the Knob over 7 or 8, so if I want a really "high reverbered" sound I have to turn the knob around 12.
I hope to explain me correctly, I'm not sayng that Reverb doesn't work (the sound is nice), but only that Reverb is not strong as I supposed to be.
Fo example, on my other amp, a Blues Junior the Reverb is less warm and less good, but I if I turn the knob at 7 or 8, the sound is totally reverbered....
So I'm wondering if it's simply a matter of different kind of reverb or if it could be an issue of the amp.
Thanks. RS

I have no answer.
Looking at schematics, those amps use very different reverb circuit

Used? Previous owner do any mods? Is the tank connected properly, input and output?

It's new and it's stock. But I've heard from several BDR owners that's a common situation: it seems that Fender Blues Dlx Reissue hasn't a strong reverb: it sounds deep but a bit weak.
