Re: Old Spring Reverb Transducers/Info,help needed Thanks Doc     I think tou're the first person to understand was I was trying to describe.   The units are not in pristine condition but are in good and very good condition.   They have been beatup a bit and collecting dust for years.The main reason for this was because of the Xducer thing.   How about if I try and use a Piezo transducer fronm a sonalert type buzzer?   Radio Shack sells many types of these in various sizes. I even built a cheap , yet good sounding pickup for my acoustic using a piezo from RS.   The plans came from an article in Electronic Musician several years ago.   I'm going to persue this route and see if I can create a substitute for this failed part.   I'll let all know how it turns out.   It will probably be a couple of weeks by the time i get around to it, But I'll post the results.     Doc do you have any info on old Dano Amps.   I have one of those too.   It Has been fooled with a bit, some drill holes in the amp front.Th e cabinet is really beat up and made of mostly masonite type material.   The grille cloth is shot to hell as well.The reverb tank is missing on this amp also.   I am fixing this up as well and could use any info possible. I don't have the model number off hand but I will post it later. I will also try to draw   up a schematic for the amp as I go along. It's not built like a Fender, it uses a buch of Terminal strips to mount the components.   I did draw up a schematic for the Dano Reverb unit however.   I will scan it and post it on the Web in the near future.   Once again thanks Doc for the explanation of that xducer part.     KS
