Hello All, I recently bought the new Frontman 212R and love it but the reverb is too weak for my taste. I want to replace the small crappy tank with an accutronics but there seem to be several types as far as ohm ratings go. Can anyone tell me what my best match will be? Thanks.

This may sound strange but I have heard that if you re-mount the reverb tank on a piece of cardboard or a better piece of wood that it will change the way it sounds.
While I have not tried it that way, when I put my Blues Jr. in a custom Walnut cabinet and mounted the reverb tank to the Walnut it did sound different.

I am also having some trouble locating the proper full-sized Accutronics/Belton reverb tank for the Frontman 212R.

Does anyone know what full sized reverb tank model number is compatible in the Frontman 212R?

And where they can be purchased in the USA?

This shouldn't be rocket science or require an amp tech as long as the proper tank is selected, because the current tank uses industry standard RCA jacks.
