Vibro King no reverb.

[BrianCadoret]

Hi,
I've got the original Fender Collection which has the Vibro King included.
The reverb, which comes before the pre-amp, doesn't seem to work.
Turning the reverb mix up full I can barely hear any reverb, is this a known bug.
Could somebody give it a try please.
Thanks
Brian

Brian,

I have the Fender Collection and I was able to create a test video of my results. There are three knobs on the Vibro King that control the reverb and all three need to be adjusted. I was able to hear reverb just fine. Review the video to see and hear the results of my test.

Thanks Dave for getting back and the video.

I guess I was expecting more reverb 'wash' especially with the mix control on full.
Yes there is minimal reverb happening, in contrast to the Twin where if you dial in anything above 4 the reverb is certainly noticeable.
I was reading a good review on a "real" Fender Vibro King and quote that "the reverb can move from washed-out ambient textures and dark, brooding soundscapes to bright-and-springy surf tones that just beg for heavy strings and fast picking".

Maybe I was expecting tooo much from this already great product.
Cheers

Brian,

I agree when I was testing I thought the reverb wasn't overly present as well. I didn't really hear it until I turned up the [Tone] knob.

It would be well worth raising your findings with Technical Support to say what they have to say.
