These MOD replacement tanks are very good, recommended by electronics specialists and used by many of us here including myself.

I'll keep this in mind. Will this one work in the Nashville 1000 as well?

FYI. I bought one for my NV112..their cables do not work for the older ones with the rectangular 3 prong plugin..their cables are just RCA jacks.. they were cool on returning it.. :(

Bummer Larry. I'm a little confused why it didn't hook up. I'm not all that familiar with 112s but I know there were other editions of the amp.

So, are you saying the existing NV112 cabling wouldn't connect to the MOD tank? Or were you planning to replace both the cable and the tank?

Anyway, sorry for the bum steer. Hope you get the tank and circuit sorted. JO.

Jerry the cord to connect it to the amp doesn’t have the correct plug in…(3 prong 1” x 1/4” rectangle)I was going to replace the tank (there was no tank or cord in this when I bought it..previous owner took it all out)..when I talked to Antique Supply they said they don’t make one for the older 112s..I looked all over the net and nobody had one much less know want they were…back to Alesis reverb..:) :D

I'll bet there is, somewhere, either a pin-out diagram so you could make your own Molex/2RCA adapter, or a Molex/2RCA adapter you can buy.

Given that I don't personally like the sound of the Peavey reverb circuit, I like that idea a LOT better. When I run my Peaveys instead of the Milkman or my Seafoam green twin, I bring along an outside Reverb
If you hang out with the bluegrass crowd on the island, tell Caroline Wright I said hello.

Caroline Wright. She's been a friend of mine since we were kids in the mid 70s: her mom used to take her to the same festivals my dad played at (if you didn't know, Dad's Tom, of the Seldom Scene in those days). She's always doing something bluegrassy out there. If you find me on Facebook (Lane Stylgar Gray), she's one of my friends there of course.

I’m Not on Facebook, if she still is on Kauai I’d like to meet her. No more Bluegrass any more That I know, very small island with fewer gigs anymore.. If you connect with her you can pass on my email to meet up with her..lamusik3@gmail,com. I’m on the east side in Kapa’a if you ever get over here we’ve got a guest house and a full band room!
