So, for the record, were ANY Hylight Hiwatt heads made with "Reverberation"?

I'm surprised they didn't peel off that label.

Watch out for this butchered DR103, too

Looking at it makes my head hurt. I'm not sure what's worse...the addition of coolings fans or the removal of one of the 'Brill' input jacks.

I had been talking to that guy for a couple months, waiting on pics and waiting on pics. That is a crying shame! Where do you draw the line between "fixxer upper" and spare parts?

I also would like to see detailed pics of the wiring especially behind the inputs. Some of the damage may be reversible.

Almost everything is reversible. Heck, you could cut and glue wood plugs into those fan holes and recover the box. :lol: It's just a question of how much time and money you want to spend.
