Very interesting video! Do you ever measure the inductance values using inductance meter? If so, what is usually the approximate measured inductance value of that 200 ohm coil with and without the core leaf stack? And those of a 8-10 ohm coil? Can the exactly same repair or rewind procedure usually to be done both input and output coils?
Thanks for your comment! No I haven´t done that with my inductance meter. Mainly cause it does all measurements at a certain frequency point which does tell you only the inductance in this specific frequency but we deal with a broad range of frequencys here. Seems not so useful for me. And - as I stated if you measure 10 same tanks of the same manufacuring you get 10 different readings within a tolerance up to 30%... It isn´t too critical. Then connecting it to any reverb driver or a tube of - some kind of condition ... so things you have to mind in terms of accuracy. Haven´t need to change an output inductor but I think it should work the same. The higher number of turns should allow you to backwind to the defect or to overwind if you got room on the bobbin for example a 1400 or 600 to get a 2250 Ohm Hope that helps
Interesting video; I have a box of dead reverb tanks around here (more often it's the driver end that goes bad), and was figuring on swapping entire transducers around to make a couple of good tanks, but perhaps I'll try rewinding instead. It's somewhat easier for you because you have a pickup winder, which most of us do not..... as for the video, it's very nicely produced, and generally the music was good, but I wish you wouldn't play music when you are speaking because you talk so quietly and softly that the music drowns you out, and you havent enabled the captions. By the way, at times the mudic made me felt that I was in the middle of a Clint Eastwood "spaghetti Western", and so if you do any more videos on this subject, you will have to title them "A fistful of coils"; "for a few coils more"; and "the good, the bad and the ugly of reverb tanks!" 😉😁
Cool Thanks next time I got a broken input winding i will try it also:-)

thanks for your credit´s man!
My English skills are at least worrying, so hopefully some background music will disguise the whole thing a bit....
